Your Eyes Lyrics
written by Babyface, Daryl Simmons (1998) performed by Xscape You're not in control when there's demands put on your heart You don't even know, cause when it's real you fall too hard And yet even so, you try to play like nothing's wrong No you can't run away, there is no hiding place 'Cause you can't run from your heart Your eyes they tell me secrets that you, you can't deny Your eyes they show me feelings that you hold deep inside How do I know the secrets that

[Chorus]
They wanna know (All you have to do)
know how I do
Maybe you don't (All you have to do is call me... call me)
Why you playing, why you playing?
I be going like two and two
With some hot shit ready to spit for you
With the songs that you love just to get you through
[Verse 1]
Back in effect
I'm back to collect
Got the respect
Which will turn into the cash or a check
You can, pay me in fear, you can pay me with love
You can, pay me in tears or you can pay me in blood
Spray me with slugs, and the revolution live, I never die in vain
The writer might be dead but the piece remain on the train (yea)
The music help you be true to yourself, accumulate wealth
So what I spit is the embodiment I do for self
As a teen it was kinda hard to find a job
I took over my writer's bloc and ran it like a spot
I'm Pimp C in this game nigga, I'm a hard
But I'm never feasting on it, keep speaking on it God
That
Save The Day Lyrics
Ten pounds too much to the naked eye I don’t take the bus because she drives Watermelon lipstick, and way too much She got buttermilk smile and a thorny touch Street smart, like a Courtney Love Can’t get enough Hollywood stories of Anybody famous that can make her feel Like they’re all kinda friends in a way No best friend, well one but she’s crazy Grew up to end up a Professor of lazy The last of six kids that all left town Seems nobody ever wanted them a
's what they say when I'm building, I keep my dialogue street Ten pounds too much to the naked eye I don’t take the bus because she drives Watermelon lipstick, and way too much She got buttermilk smile and a thorny touch Street smart, like a Courtney Love Can’t get enough Hollywood stories of Anybody famous that can make her feel Like they’re all kinda friends in a way No best friend, well one but she’s crazy Grew up to end up a Professor of lazy The last of six kids that all left town Seems nobody ever wanted them a
But still spiritual like we deep inside a mosque
Or the sin of God that don't preach or go where the sinners are
And keep the fire burning like a slum lord in the Bronx
[Chorus]
Of course I will 'cuz you know how I do
Maybe you don't (All you have to do is call me... call me)
I be going like two and two
With some more hot shit ready to spit for you
With the songs that you love just to get you through
Ma
[Verse 2]
Rhyme writer from nine to five
It's the 25 to lifers with the balance of the acrobatic high wires
The pain of the slave with his back feeling like fire
'Cuz the whip talking to his ass like Knight Rider
Most of these rappers now days be sounding like liars
Got visions of guns in they head like the Pied Piper
When I bust they start to disappear like my lighters
'Cuz they shit is faker than the dreads on Mikah Phifer
The industry is in trouble
Run Rudolph Run Lyrics
Out of all the reindeer you know you're the mastermind Run, run Rudolph, Randalph's not too far behind Run, run Rudolph, Santa Clause is comming to town Santa he can hurry, he can take the freeway down Run run rudolph, he's a whizzing like a merry-go-round Said Santa to a boy child "What have you been longing for?" "All I want for Christmas is a Rock and Roll electric guitar" And away went Rudolph a whizzing like a shooting star Run, run Rudolph, S
Out of all the reindeer you know you're the mastermind Run, run Rudolph, Randalph's not too far behind Run, run Rudolph, Santa Clause is comming to town Santa he can hurry, he can take the freeway down Run run rudolph, he's a whizzing like a merry-go-round Said Santa to a boy child "What have you been longing for?" "All I want for Christmas is a Rock and Roll electric guitar" And away went Rudolph a whizzing like a shooting star Run, run Rudolph, S
Plus these industry niggaz is fake, so they tend to be in a bubble
So I hit the block where they're known to thicken the plot
Sticking up cops, kids be pocket-picking they Glocks (my man)
Balling outta control, don't be forgetting that niggaz is broker than dishes at a Greek wedding
They might try to run up on you, take your life quick
It's like this when you walk the strip up on the night shift
[Chorus]
Let 'em know
Of course I will 'cuz you know how I do
Maybe you don't (All you have to do is call me... call me)
I be going like two & two
With some more hot shit ready to spit for you
With the songs that you love to get you through
Ma
[Verse 3]
This right here the bare essentials with no extras y'all
I kept it raw from the school of thought where less is more
Brooklyn is cooking and I blessed it with the special sauce
I got the soul of a prophet and never take a loss
Fresher than kicks out the box, the kid
Control This Lyrics
Something I need you won't let me have Don't shut me out you don't know me yet Are you finding it hard to keep the peace between us There's always something that you want to say to me You don't listen... you don't understand In your mind you know... Everything but you don't Everytime that you don't listen How does it feel to be right all the time How does it feel now you can't control me You never let me finish what i'm saying And you can't handle i
s on the block Something I need you won't let me have Don't shut me out you don't know me yet Are you finding it hard to keep the peace between us There's always something that you want to say to me You don't listen... you don't understand In your mind you know... Everything but you don't Everytime that you don't listen How does it feel to be right all the time How does it feel now you can't control me You never let me finish what i'm saying And you can't handle i
That is street hungry trying to get that sweet honey out the rock
Crack in the socks when they click the row thicker than sour sop
Listening to my black power rock
Music, of this hip hop we be rock to it
I'm a river, you a valley, watch me run right through it
You wanna learn how to do it, tell the truth in your single first
Lil' Kim went to jail for what you do in every single verse (free Lil' Kim)
Lyrics is perjury, your beats is more plastic than surgery
And we in the United States of emergency
One of the main reasons none of you lames worry me
Is I change lanes like I change planes and change currency
[Chorus]
They wanna know, tell them (All you have to do is call me)
of course I will 'cuz you know how I do
Maybe you don't (All you have to do is call me... call me)
I be going like two and two
With some more hot shit ready to spit for you
With the songs that you love to get you through
Ma
