It seems like a lifetime
Since I felt like a prisoner of my dreams
It took such a long time
For me to realize just how to be
And to listen to me
Don’t go thinkin’
I’m not thankful
Couse me l’ve got my hands full of good things
And I hope I can give back
A little bit of what you’ve given me
So thank you
For standing
Right by me
So thank you
For being
Behind me
And watching me grow
And little other know
That you still believe in that I’ll be
Some people have since things
In time about me that weren’t always true
But you’ve always been there
To give that extra love to pull me though
To do that I gotta do
Cause there’ll always be those ups and downs
But you always seem to stick around
And see
See me through to believe
And l hope I can keep back
A you little bit of what you’ve given me
Ya give me all that I need
So thank you
For standing
Right by me
So thank you
For being
Behind me
And watching me grow
And little other know
That you still believe in that I’ll be
It took a while ‘til I could do what I wanted
And now I’m so happy that I started where I started
I’m thankin’ god that I can be in a position
To do my own thing now
And make my decisions
And so I’m thanking you
For being true
And standin’ by me thought and thought
SPOKEN:
Waited a long time for this; feels right now
Allow me to introduce myself, want you to come a little closer
I'd like you to get to know me a little better; meet the real me
Sorry you can't define me, sorry I break the mold
Sorry that I speak my mind, sorry don't do what I'm told
Sorry if I don't fake it, sorry I come too real
I will never hide what I really feel, no way, oh
SPOKEN:
So here it is, no hype, no gloss, no pretense
Just me
Stripped
If you see me walking down the street
Or in the pages of your magzine
Looking just a little differently
Showing off a softer side of me
They saying I'm looking like a lady
They saying that love is going to change me
But don't be fooled by everything you see
Gotta let the naughty in me free
There's a woman inside of all of us
Who never quite seems to get enough
Trying to play by the rules is rough
Cause sooner or later something's going to erupt
Cause I still got that nasty in me
Still got that dirrty degree (still got it)
And if you want some more sexy
Still got that freak in me
I still got that nasty in me
Still got that dirrty degree (oh yeah)
And if you want some more sexy
Still got that freak in me
No matter what you thinking of me, still dirrty
And if you're still rolling with me, still got it
No matter what you thinking of me, still dirrty
Still got that freak in me
Why is a woman's sexuality
Always under so much scrutiny?
Why can't she do exactly as she please
Without being called a million things?
They say I'm not the girl they used to know (used to know)
'Cause I don't always wear revealing clothes (oh)
But don't be fooled a moment, I can't hold (I can't hold)
I'm letting loose, 'cause then I'd probably choke (don't you know)
There's some women out there who talk and stare
Who never seem to let down their hair
Like to past judgement, but they're just scared
And don't know what they're missing, so they better beware
'Cause I still got that nasty in me
Still got that dirrty degree (ooh)
And if you want some more sexy
Still got that freak in me
I still got that nasty in me
Still got that dirrty degree (oh yeah)
And if you want some more sexy
Still got that freak in me (oh yeah)
No matter what you thinking of me, still dirrty
And if you're still rolling with me, still got it
No matter what you thinking of me, still dirrty
Still got that freak in me
Don't tell me to behave
'Cause I'll never play that game (no)
Don't tell me what to do
'Cause I'll never be uptight like you
Don't look at me that way
'Cause I ain't never gonna change
And if you're talking about my life
You're only wasting your own time
If I want to wear lingere outside of my clothes
If I want to be erotic in my own videos
If I want to be provacative, well that ain't a sin
Maybe you're not comfortable in your own skin
I still got that nasty in me
Still got that dirrty degree (in me)
And if you still want some more sexy
Still got that freak in me
I still got that nasty in me
Still got that dirrty degree (in me)
And if you still want some more sexy
Still got freak in me
When they push, when they pull, tell me, can you hold on?
When they say you should change, can you lift your head high
and stay strong?
Will you give up, give in, when your heart's crying out that it's wrong?
Will you love you for you at the end of it all?
In life, there's gonna be times when you're feeling low
And in your mind, insecurities seems to take control
We start to look outside ourselves for acceptance and approval
We keep forgetting that the one thing we should know is
CHORUS:
Don't be scared to fly alone, find a path that is your own
Love will open every door it's in your hands, the world is yours
Don't hold back and always know all the answers will unfold
What are you waiting for, spread your wings and soar
The boy who wonders is he good enough for them,
Keeps tryin' to please 'em all but he just never seems to fit in
Then there's the girl who thinks she'll never ever be good enough for him,
Keeps tryin' to change and that's a game she'll never win
Now, in life, there's gonna be times when you're feeling low
And in your mind, insecurities seem to take control
We start to look outside ourselves for acceptance and approval
We keep forgetting that the one thing we should know is
CHORUS
In the mirror is where she comes face to face with her fears
Her own reflection now foreign to her after all these years
All of her life she has tried to be something besides herself
Now, time has passed and she's ended up someone else with regret
What is it in us that makes us feel the need to keep pretending?
Gotta let ourselves be
Stop
Slow down baby
Slow down baby
Slow down baby
Slow down baby
Stop

Oooh (Slow down baby)

You're paralysed
Every time I pass you by
You're the kind that gets your way, uh
Every minute, every single day
I can see it all in your face
You're blown away
Coz I don't want you in my space
You're struttin' 'round here like you think that I can't do without you
You got some nerve to think that I would give up everything
Slow down baby
And don't act crazy
Don't you know you can look all you want but you just can't touch? (Just can't touch no)
So slow down baby (Hey)
I'm not your lady (Lady)
Boy you're never gonna get it from me coz I'm with someone
Slow it down
Slow it down
Oh ooh whoa
Slow it
Slow it
Stop
Slow down baby
After all of the games you played
How's it feel to finally get a taste?
You can dish it out but can you take the bed you've made?
Boy and its gonna change
I'm not falling for your stupid lies
I know you've dished them 'bout thousand times
Saying nothing but a nursery rhyme
But I won't buy it
Baby don't you even try
You comin' 'round here like you think that everything's about you
If you knew anything, you'd realise I'm wearing a ring
Slow down baby (Slow down)
And don't act crazy (Crazy hey)
Don't you know you can look all you want but you just can't touch? (You just can't touch no)
So slow down baby (Slow down)
I'm not your lady (Your lady)
Boy you're never gonna get it from me coz I'm with someone (Someone yay)
Do you really wanna waste your time?
Don't you have better things to do with life?
Hey ey yeah
Whoa
Listen I don't wanna get you down
But I ain't never gonna mess around
So how many ways do I have to say:
Oooh ooh oh
Slow down baby (Slow it down, yeah, yeah)
And don't act crazy
Don't you know you can look all you want but you just can't touch? (You know that you can't touch no
oooh whoa)
So slow down baby (Slow down baby)
I'm not your lady (Not your lady)
Boy you're never gonna get it from me coz I'm with someone (Oooh whoa)
You better stop
Slow down baby
So slow down baby (Slow down baby)
And don't act crazy (And don't act crazy)
Don't you know you can look all you want but you just can't touch? (You just can't touch no)
It’s not so easy
Lovin me
It gets so complicated
All the things gotta be
Everything’s changing’
But you’re the truth
I’m amazed by all your patience
Everything’ I put you through
And when I’m about to fall
Somehow you’re always waiting with
You opened arms to catch me
You’re gonna save me from myself
From myself
You’re gonna save me from myself
My love is tainted
By your touch
Well some guys have shown me aces
But you’ve got that royal flush
I know its crazy everyday
Well tomorrow mabe shaky
But you’re the truth away
And don’t ask me why I’m crying’
Cause when I start to crumble
You know how to keep me smiling
You always save from myself
From myself, myself
You’re gonna save me from myself
I know its hurt, it’s hurt
But you’ve broken all my walls
You’ve been my strength
So strong
And don’t ask me why I love you
It’s obvious your tenderness is what I need to make me
A better woman to myself
To myself, myself
You’re gonna save me from myself
So many years have gone by
Always strong, tried not to cry
Never felt like I needed any man
To comfort me in life
But I'm all made up today
A veil upon my face
But no father stands beside me
To give his bride away
Well I'm standing in the chapel
Wearing my white dress
I have waited for this moment
With tears of happiness
Here I leave behind my past
By taking the chance
I've finally found the right man
Thoughts racing fast through my mind
As I'm gazing down the aisle
That my future will mend the memories
Torn between father and child
My emotions overload
'Cause there is no hand to hold
There's no shoulder here to lean on
I'm walking all on my own
Here I go
Now I'm standing at four corners
To have and to hold
Now my love, you stand beside me
To walk life's winding road
And I owe it all to you
For taking the chance
You've shown me there's a right man
'Cause I never knew a right man
Well I'm standing in the chapel
Ready to confess
That I've waited for this moment
With tears of happiness
Now I leave behind my past
By taking the chance
Ohh
Well I'm standing at four corners
To have and to hold
Now my love, you stand beside me
To walk life's winding road
And I owe it all to you
For taking the chance
And one day my little girl
Will reach out her hand
She'll know I found the right man
Look at me, you may think you see who I really am
But you'll never know me
Every day, it's as if I play a part
Now, I see if I wear a mask,
I can fool the world
But I cannot fool my heart
Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
When will my reflection show who I am inside?
I am now in a world where I have to hide my heart
And what I believe in
But somehow, I will show the world
What's inside my heart
And be loved for who I am
Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
Why is my reflection someone I don't know?
Must I pretend that I'm
Someone else for all time?
When will my reflection show who I am inside?
There's a heart that must be free to fly,
That burns with a need to know the reason why
Why must we all conceal
What we think, how we feel?
Must there be a secret me I'm forced to hide?
I won't pretend that I'm
Someone else for all time
When will my reflection show who I am inside?
When will my reflection show who I am inside?
Cuando estoy,
por caer, yo se que tu amor

Many storms as family

Through all the lows and highs
Need you by my side singin

And maybe one day
You’ll be wanting mine
And we can
Be there for each other

She was so young with such innocent eyes
She always dreamt of a fairytale life
And all the things your money can't buy
She thought daddy was a wonderful guy
Then suddenly, things seemed to change
It was the moment she took on his name
He took his anger out on her face
She kept all of her pain locked away
Oh mother, we're stronger
From all of the tears you have shed
Oh mother, don't look back
Cause he'll never hurt us again
So mother, I thank you
For all you've done and still do
You got me, I got you
Together we always pull through
We always pull through
We always pull through
Oh mother, oh mother, oh mother
It was the day that he turned on his kids
That she knew she just had to leave him
So many voices inside of her head
Saying over and over and over,
"You deserve much more than this."
She was so sick of believing the lies and trying to hide
Covering the cuts and bruises (cuts and bruises)
So tired of defending her life, she could have died
Fighting for the lives of her children
Oh mother, we're stronger
From all of the tears you have shed (all of the tears you have shed)
Oh mother, don't look back
Cause he'll never hurt us again (he'll never hurt us again)
So mother, I thank you (thank you)
For all that you've done and still do (still do)
You got me, I got you, (yeah you got me and I got you)
Together we always pull through.
We always pull through
We always pull through
Oh mother, oh mother, oh mother
All of your life you have spent
Burying hurt and regret
But mama, he'll never touch us again
For everytime he tried to break you down
Just remember who's still around
It's over, and we're stronger
And we'll never have to go back again
Oh mother, we're stronger
From all of the tears you have shed
Oh mother, don't look back (oh mother don't look back again)
Cause he'll never hurt us again (cause he'll never hurt us again)
So mother, I thank you (and I thank you for everything you've done)
For all that you've done and still do (together we always move on)
You got me, I got you, (you got me, I got you)
Together we always pull through (always pull through)
We always pull through
We always pull through
There you are, in a darkened room
And you're all alone, looking out the window
Your heart is cold and lost the will to love
Like a broken arrow
Here I stand in the shadows
In the shadows
Come to come, come to me
Can't you see that
Nobody wants to be lonely
Nobody wants to cry
My body's longing to hold you
So bad it hurts inside
Time is precious and it's slipping away
And I've been waiting for you all of my life (ohh)
Nobody wants to be lonely
So why (why), why don't you let me love you
Why (ooh ohh yeah), why (oh why), why
Ooh ooh, yeah
Can you hear my voice, do you hear my song
It's a seranade, so your heart can find me, ohh
And suddenly you're flying down the stairs
Into my arms, baby, ohh
Before I start going crazy
Going crazy, ohh
Run to me
Run to me
Cause I'm dying...
Nobody wants to be lonely
Nobody wants to cry (I don't wanna cry)
My body's longing to hold you (I'm longing to hold you)
So bad it hurts inside
Time is precious and it's slipping away
And I've been waiting for you all of my life (ohh)
Nobody wants to be lonely
So why
Why, why don't you let me love you
I wanna feel you need me
Feel you need me
Just like the air you're breathing
Breathing, I need you here in my life
Don't walk away, don't walk away
Don't walk alway, don't walk away
No, no, no, no...
Nobody wants to be lonely
Nobody wants to cry...yeah yeah
Nobody wants to be lonely (yeah ohh ooh)
Nobody wants to cry (nobody wants to cry)
My body's longing to hold you (is longing to hold you)
So bad it hurts inside (hurts inside)

And I've been waiting for you all of my life (ohh)
Nobody wants to be lonely
So why (why), why don't you let me love you
Let me love you...
Nobody wants to be lonely

Time is precious and it's slipping away
And I've been waiting for you all of my life
Nobody wants to be lonely
So why (why), why don't you let me love you
Why (why), let me love you
Why don't you let me love you
Why, love you, let me love you
You've been a bad bad boy

Relax and sip upon my champagne
'Cause I wanna give you a little taste
Of the sugar below my waist, you nasty boy

Voulez vous coucher avec moi?

Got you hot, bothered, and wet

You nasty boy
Para ti
Lo que ves de mi
Es la realidad
Mas tu no conoces
El papel que la vida
Me hace actuar
Siendo asi
Yo puedo burlar
Mi mundo exterior
Pero al corazon jamas
Hoy no reconoci
A quien vi frente a mi
Mi reflejo no mostro
Quien soy en verdad
Un dia mas
Que me corazon tengo que ocultar
Todo mi sentir
Al final
Sabran como soy
Que pienso en verdad
Ese dia llegara, oh, oh
Hoy no reconoci
A quien vi frente a mi
Esa en mi reflejo
Se que no soy yo
No quiero aparentar
Quiero ser
Realidad
Mi reflejo no mostro
Quien soy en verdad
Y mi corazon sentir, volar
No soy, como quiero no
Y voy a cambiar
No debe ser asi
El fingir no es vivir
La que veo frente a mi
No aguanta mas
Ya no voy a ocultar
La que soy
Nunca mas
Un buen dia el amor
Me rescatara
Y ese dia
Quien yo soy se reflejara, ooh
Lord have mercy on my soul
For I have walked the sinful road
That I'm down on my knees
Lord have mercy on me, please
Ohh yeah
Jesus, I must confess
That in all my loneliness
I've forsaken and I've sinned
Leaving fragments of a man so broken
I could tell you what I've done
Or should I tell you where I went wrong?
Well the more that I start to play
My deceitful, evil ways
Keep on growing stronger by the day
Oh lord have mercy on my soul
For I have walked a sinful road
So I'm gonna get down on my knees
Beg forgiveness to help set me free
Lord have mercy on me, please
Mother Mary full of grace
In my weakness, I've lost faith
I've been careless, and I have been warned
And the devil inside me is torn
God bless the men that I have scorned
Oh lord have mercy on my soul
For I have walked the sinful road
So I'm gonna get down on my knees
Beg forgiveness to help set me free
Lord have mercy on me, please
So don't let me fool around no more
Send your angels down to guide me through that door
Well I've gone and confessed my regrets
And I pray I'm not held in contempt
I'm so lost, and I need you to help me repent
Oh lord have mercy on my soul
Oh I'm begging, I'm pleeding, I'm needing
I want you to know
So I'm down upon my knees
Oh lord, I need forgiveness
I need forgiveness from you
What is this feelin’ comin’ over me?

Baby you make me happy
(Oh, oh, stay with me, oh)
Why don't you stay with me tonight
(Ohh, yeah)
I can't believe what you did to me
Down on my knees and I need to break free
All these years, you violated me (violated me)
I don't know why I can't feel inside
I try to hide, can't make it alright, it's overkill
Now, I'm ready to fight (I'm ready to fight)
I don't need nobody tryin' to make me over (don't make me over)
I just want to live simple and free
I just want to get away
Savin' all your bullshit for another day
Feeling confined like I'm bein' force fed
My visions blurry and I'm lost in regrets
It's overload and I'm outta control (outta control)
So sick and tired of bein' so misused (so misused)
You're taking me down with all your mental abuse
And I said, I gotta get you outta my head
Everybody's always trying to look me over (don't look me over)
I just wanna live simple and free
I just want to get away
Savin' all your bullshit for another day
I'm the only one that can rescue me from me
Leaving the house around quarter to five
Zipped up my boots and I'm ready to ride
And I feel so high, I feel so alive
Let down my hair, feel the wind on my skin
Crossin' the border where my new life begins
And I close my eyes and take it all in
I don't need nobody tryin' to make me over (don't make me over)
I just want to live simple and free
I just want to get away
Savin' all your bullshit for another day
I'm the only one that can rescue me from me
(2x)
You wanna break me down
You wanna break me down
You wanna break me down
You wanna break me down
