1 - a dream
A simple fantasy
That i
Wish was reality
That you
Come knocking at my door
And we
Relive this dream once more

Last night i dreamed
That you were here with me
And we were in each other's arms
It was oh so heavenly

You held me close to you
And whispered in my ear
Let's spend the night together
Sharing love beyond the bed

As we danced to the melody
We had so much to share
And the music stopped
In a flash i was all alone
It was just a dream
Haunting me once again

Repeat 1

The day you left
You said you would return
Just when couldn't promise
That you needed some time alone

You said you'd love
And someday our love would be
I couldn't understand it
I thought we were both happy

As we danced to the melody
We had so much to share
Then the music stopped
In a flash
I was all alone
It was just a dream
Haunting me once again, oh

Repeat 1


A dream

2u

I hope that you've been thinking about me

Chorus
I hope that you have been thinking of me too
The way that i have been thinking of you
I hope that you have been thinking of me too
The way that i have been thinking of you

Pick up the phone to call you
But i hung up cause i'm so afraid
Afraid of rejection
Or another woman in your face
Hopin' all day that you would call me
And that you're thinkin' of me too
Well in my case with the game of love
If i played i would probably lose

Chorus
I hope that you have been thinking of me too
The way that i have been thinking of you
I hope that you have been thinking of me too
The way that i have been thinking of you

I hope that you're thinkin' of me
And i pray every night you love me
I don't ever want what we have to end
And i'll always be your friend
Don't you feel me calling from afar
If you don't know i've been there from the start
As sure as my name is what it is
You'll always have a place in my heart

Chorus
I hope that you have been thinking of me too
The way that i have been thinking of you
I hope that you have been thinking of me too
The way that i have been thinking of you

Ooh, ooh, ooh....
I hope that you have been thinking of me
The way that i have been thinking of you
When i pray every night
That it's me in your dreams when your sleepin'
I really hope that i'm the that you're thinking about
Yeah, yeah, yeah...

Chorus
I hope that you have been thinking of me too (i hope that, i hope that you've
Been thinkin')
The way that i have been thinking of you (all the time, can't get you off my
Mind baby)
I hope that you have been thinking of me too
The way that i have been thinking of you

See i hope that it's you
And i hope that you are baby
Thinking of me too
Ooh, yeah, yeah...

See i hope that you are
Ooh, you're thinking of me
I need for you to think about me
Like i think about you baby
Yeah, yeah, yeah...

I hope that it's you
And i hope that you're thinking of, thinking of, thinking of me too

me, you, we'll go flying away
I'm gone take you little higher babe, go flying away
Where the sun is wet and the rainbow's fire, flying away
Unto another star, where our minds and our hearts will find a way

Baby here's your only chance, call me your sunshine, on a rainy day
Love is on the way
Don't you worry 'bout nothing at all
If you really need a friend it's me you can call
I won't bring you down
We'll fly high above the ground
Me and you

Me, you, we'll go flying away
I'm gone take you little higher babe, go flying away
Where the sun is wet and the rainbow's fire, flying away
Unto another star, where our minds and our hearts will find a way
(repeat)

so tired, tired of these drama
No more, no more
I wanna be free
I'm so tired, so tired

Broken heart again
Another lesson learn
Better know your friends
Or else you will get burn
Gotta count on me
Cause i can guarantee
That i'll be fine

No more pain (no more pain)
No more pain (no more pain)
No drama (no more drama in my life)
Noone's gonna make me hurt again

What a player fool
Go through ups and downs
Nowhere and all the time
You wouldn't be around
Or maybe i like the stress
Cause i was young and restless
But there was long ago
I don't wanna cry no more

No more pain (no more pain)
No more game (no more game messin with my mind)
No drama (no more drama in my life)
Nooone's gonna make me hurt again
No more tears (no more tears, i'm tired of cryin everynight)
No more fears (no more fears, i really don't wanna cry)
No drama (no more drama in my life)
I don't ever wanna hurt again
Wanna speak my mind, wanna speak my mind

Uh, it feel so good
When you let go
Avoid these drama in your life
Now you're free from all the pain
Free from all the game
Free from all the stress
So bye your happiness
I don't know
Only god knows where the story is
For me, but i know where the story begins
It's up to us to choose
Whatever we win or loose
And i choose to win

No more pain (no more pain)
No more game (tired of your playin' game with my mind)
No drama (no more drama in my life)
No more, no more, no more, no more
No more tears (no more tears, no more cryin every night)
No more fears (no more waking be up in the morning)
No drama, no more in my life

No more drama, no more drama
No more drama, no more drama
No more drama
No more drama
No more drama
No more drama
No more drama
No more drama in my life
So tired, tired of these drama

this is for the little child with no father
For that man that doesn't have a place to stay
And for that little boy living with aids
[now tell your story, tell your story]
You can lean on me

There's a man
Standing on the corner
He has no home, he has no food
And his blue skies are gone
Can't you hear him crying out

And there's a girl
Searching for a father and a friend
Praying that the storm someday will end
But instead of walkin' away
Open up your heart and say

I am here
You don't have to worry, i can see your tears
I'll be there in a hurry when you call
Friends are there to catch you when you fall
Here's my shoulder, you can lean on me

Oh, there's a child who is sick and begging to be free
But there is no cure for his disease
He looks up to his mother as
She hold, his hand
Prayin' that someday the sun will shine again
And the pain, pain will end, come on

I am here
You don't have to worry, i can see
Your tears
I'll be there in a hurry when you call
Friends are there to catch you when you fall
Here's my shoulder, you can lean on me

Tell me how can i, how can i love jesus
When i never seen his face
Yet i see you dying
And i turn and walk away

So hold my hand, let me take you to a friend of mine
He's waiting just to ease your troubled mind
Instead of walkin' away, open up
Open up your heart and say

I am here
You don't have to worry, i can see your tears
I'll be there in a hurry when you call
Friends'll be there to catch you when, catch you when you fall, ooh
Thank you jesus, yeah
Here's my shoulder, you can lean on me
Here's my shoulder, you can lean on me

Here's my shoulder, you can lean on me
Here's my shoulder, you could lean on me
Hallelujah

once he's in he gets so comfortable
Never wanting to commit for sure
Always lyin' 'bout the girl next door
That's how all these things begin

You let your guard down and he does you in
All your secrets he's been holding that's in
To throw back at you when it benefits him
So he can go and play with all the chickens

So tell me when the lying and the front begun
Why you playing with me cause it's not fun
How could it be two if i'm your only one
That's how crazy this game is

Working so hard to complete myself
Never thinkin' bout the love that's on the shelf
Livin' our life like there is no one else
That's how crazy this game is

Who you messin' with with all the games you play
Oh, you didn't know my name was mary j
All the chicks you hit i heard they all look slave
Tryin' to gas me sayin' things have changed
Now you're like the furthest thing from my brain
Never thought i had to say it to you this way
All the years i've been wit you
Boy i feel so played
Now i need to go and jump on my plane

Tell me when the lying and the front begun
Why you playing with me cause it's not fun
How could it be two if i'm your only one
That's how crazy this game is

Working so hard to complete myself
Never thinkin' bout the love that's on the shelf
Livin' our life like there is no one else
That's how crazy this game is

This is one thing i will not tolerate
I'm not
For this
Abusive
Relation
Conclusive
Excusive
For a evolution

You think
With all
The games
It stops
Possesive
Obsessive
Expression

Tell me when the lying and the front begun
Why you playing with me cause it's not fun
How could it be two if i'm your only one
That's how crazy this game is

Working so hard to complete myself
Never thinkin' bout the love that's on the shelf
Livin' our life like there is no one else
That's how crazy this game is

That's how crazy this game is
That's how crazy this game is....

i've had some good days
I've had some bad days
I know about heartbreak
Didn't think that i could make it
I know how it feels to have money
I know how it feels to be broke
And i can tell you 'bout lonely
Cause i've been there before

But when i raised my head up to the sky
All of the emptiness was gone
If you believe you'll see in time
That everything will be alright

It's going to be alright
Everything will be okay
This is a testimony
Mary's story
Trouble don't last always

It's going to be alright
Everything will be okay
This is a testimony
Mary's story
Trouble don't last always

Through my trials and tribulations
I still believe
That god had a greater plan for me
Exceeded all my expectations
But when he gave me what i needed
And now i am set free

But when i raise my head up to the sky (raise my head)
All of the emptiness was gone (all of it was gone)
If you believe you'll see in time
That everything will be alright

It's going to be alright (alright)
Everything will be okay (everything will be okay)
This is a testimony
Mary's story (my testimony)
Trouble don't last always (trouble don't last always)

It's going to be alright (said it's gonna be)
Everything will be okay (everything will be)
This is a testimony
Mary's story
Trouble don't last always (always, always)

It's going to be alright (it's gonna be alright)
Everything will be okay (everything will be okay)
This is a testimony (okay, okay)
Mary's story
Trouble don't last always (trouble don't last always)

It's going to be alright (ooh, ooh)
Everything will be okay (everything will be okay)
This is a testimony
Mary's story
Trouble don't last always

This is my story
This is my song (this is my song)
This is the day i celebrate
My troubles are gone (my troubles are gone)

This is my story
This is my song (this is my song, my song)
This is the day i celebrate

It's going to be alright
Everything will be okay (everything will be okay)
This is a testimony (alright)
Mary's story
Trouble don't last always (trouble don't last, it don't last, it don't last)

It's going to be alright
Everything will be okay (just choose, just choose your path)
This is a testimony
Mary's story
Trouble don't last always

It's alright (it's alright)
It's okay
He wiped all me tears away (he wiped them away)
It's alright
It's okay
Trouble don't last always (trouble don't last)

It's alright (said it don't last)
It's okay he wiped all me tears away (he wiped all my, all my)
It's alright
It's okay
Trouble don't last always

Away, away, away....

He cared for me when nobody else did
He wiped my tears away

Away, away, away

I'm makin short term goals, wonder whether foes
Just put away the leathers and put ice on the gold
Chilly with enough bail money to free a big willy
High stakes, i got more at stake than philly
Shoppin sprees, copin three, duece fever i guess its fully loaded,
Ah yes,
Bouncin in the lex luger, tires smoke like buddha
50 g's to the crap shooter,
Niggas can't fade me
Chrome socks beamin, through my periphial i see ya schemin
Stop dreamin',i leave ya body steamin
Niggas is feenin, whats the meanin
I'm leanin on any nigga intervenin with the sound of my money machine-in
My cuff runnin over with hundreds
Im one of the best niggas that done it
Six digits and runnin,
Y'all niggas don't want it
I got the godfather flow, the don juan demarco
Swear to god, don't get it fucked up

(chorus) ~mary j. blige

Takin out this time
To give you a piece of my mind
(cause you can't knock the hustle)
But though you think you are
Baby one day you'll be a star

That scene out of state where i drop my slang
I'm deep in the south kickin up top game
Bouncin on the highway switchin 4 lanes
Screamin through the sun roof money ain't a thang
Your worst fear confirmed,
Me and my fam roll tight like the firm
Gettin down for life, thats right, you better learn
Why play with fire, burn
We get together like a choir
To acquire what we desire
We do dirt like worms
Produce g's like sperm
Til legs spread like germs
I got extensive hoes, with expensive clothes
And i sip wine, and split ends exposed
But y'all don't know...
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Cause you can't knock the hustle

Mary j.blige:

But until that day then
I'm the one whose crazy
Cause thats the way ya makin me feel
(cause you can't knock the hustle)
I'm just tryin to get mine,
I don't have the time
To knock the hustle, for real!

Y'all niggas lunchin, punchin a clock
My function is lo make much 'n' lay back munchin
Sippin remy on rocks, my crew
Somethin to watch nothin to stop
Un...
...stoppable
Scheme on the ice, i gotta hide your crew
I gotta
Let you niggas know the time like movado
My motto,
Stack rocks like colorado
Bottle off the champagne, cristals by the bottle
Its a damn shame what ya knot though
Me slick like i got though (who?)
Fuckin jay-z
Pops knew exactly what he did when he made me
Tried to get a nut and he got a nut and what
Straight banana's
Can a nigga, see me
Got the us open, advantage jigga
Serve like sampras, play fake a rappers like a campus
(netigra???), son you're to eager
You ain't havin it? good, me either
Lets get together and make this whole world believers
At my araignment, screamin
All these blacks got is sports and entertainment, until we even
Thievin, as long as i'm breathin
Can't knock the way a nigga eatin
Fuck you even

Mary j. blige

Takin out this time
To give you a piece of my mind
But though you think you are
Baby one day you'll be a star
But until that day then
I'm the one whose crazy
Cause thats the way ya makin me feel,
I'm just tryin to get mine, i don't have the time
To knock the hustle, for real!

(chorus)
Everyday it rains
Everyday it rains 'cause things will never be the same
Everyday it rains
Things will never change cause i am not the one to blame

How can i try to make you understand that i'm
Only living a lie
'cause i have to walk around everyday
With a smile
Everyday

(chorus)

Waking every morning knowing you're not there
Is the only thing that gets me scared
All i do is think of you and all the love we shared
Everyday

It keeps on rainin in my life
It rains
And every day's the same
Baby you brightened up my life
So realize

Everyday it rains yeah
Things will never be the same
I am not the one to blame
Just because it rains everyday oh

I'm not the one to blame

Believe me when i say that it rains everyday
Got a cloud over me all the time and i
Don't know why it rains
It rains and rains

(chorus)

Waking every morning knowing you're not there
Is the only thing that gets me scared
I don't know when you're comin home
But i'll be waiting with open arms
Believe me when it rains
It rains for real
