White and black keys on a piano
6 strings to a guitar
46 strings on the harp
2 sticks to pound the drums
Beautiful melody coming out of the vocalist
Cassette tapes, CD's, mp3's play it all
CHORUS (x2):
Nobody can take me from my first love (x3)
My first love, my first love
You pick me up when I fall down
You always ensure you'll be around
When there's nobody around to talk to, you keep my company when i need you to
Sometimes you're sad
Sometimes you're happy
You're misunderstood
But that just means you're just like me
I sing to you dance to you
And i think about romance to you
CHORUS
Your melodies play in my head as a reminder
To know there's a relation whether major or minor
I walk with my headphone blasted
Listening to work which was carefully crafted
Positive or negative
You know my struggles and you work with em
I walk to a beat never constant
See its over this in which we've bonded
CHORUS
Yea
Hear me when I say
You play in my head everyday
Expressing love or hate
I cherish you everyday

CHORUS:
Anything you want, anything you need
I can guarantee you can get it from me
Whatchu want? (I got it) Whatchu need? (I got it)
Whatchu want? (I got it) Whatchu need? (I got it)
I (I) know (know)
That you been searching for somebody who can show you the finer things
You (should) know (that)
All the things you're searching for is sittin' here bottled up inside of me
I'm sexy lookin'
And got a brain that's gotta be double 10...
Whatchu steady lookin' for when for you I have myself so open
You be frontin' when you know you really want it
See I ain't unfamiliar with the vibes you givin'
You actin' unfamiliar with the situation
Don't worry I got it..

I could be the one who you've been searching for
I could be the starlight in your darkest day
I could be your wings if only you let me
I could be the drink that quenches you in heat
My eyes opened focused out on you, you're my rain
Rain down on me you could be the one who eases pain
Lovely words your body smooth and hair so soft
Laying in my pajamas till the morning light hits your face through my window pane
*clears throat*
Stumbling over my speech
You've made that second nature to me
And that's why i think that you and me
May have been meant to be oh i could be
CHORUS:
If you're wonderin' what i could be i said that i could be..
Your everything
I could be
I could be the trigger to your little goofy laugh
I could be the Mc to your Donald's
I could be every little thing that crosses your mind whether I'm smooth or rough broken or fixed it is all up to your mind
My eyes opened focused out on you, you're my rain
And that's why i think that you and me
May have been meant to be oh i could be
CHORUS:
(Your lover, believer, your dreamer, your seer.. Infinity, your entity, Everything that makes us we)
I could be
You disguised as me
Your lover, believer, your dreamer, your seer..
Infinity, your entity, everything that makes us we
If you say "jump" I'll say how high, how high, how high
I wanna touch the sky...

I Need You
04:30
|

People don't know
You lose yourself caring for someone who don't
Care about you
... See somewhere along the line i lost my way
Now when I'm without you i just cant take
CHORUS:
I need you (I'm Crazy about you)
I need you (I Can't be without you)
I need you (I'm silly about you)
I need you (I Can't be without you)
Is it bad we cant be together apart
I need your attention like a baby in a cart
Its like I must've known you in a past life
You were the one I couldn't let go and now you know
You're my everything
Its hard to stunt but you know us cancers like to front..
Light me up knowin' damn well you don't care
And I'm stuck here fumblin' over my words
... See somewhere along the line I lost my way
Now when I'm without you i just cant take
CHORUS
SPOKEN:
People don't know
I mean I sit here and think about you.. Wait people might know actually.
I mean it is pretty obvious
But its just rough knowing you don't care about me like I do you..
And even though i know this I still feel like i need you
CHORUS
You may brush me off but
You might make not the effort but
I need you
You may not care but
You may not understand but
I need you

<rap start>
A raging fire engulfed my heart,
Before I saw you
So excuse my pain
It hasn't been working lately,
Very much broken
All on my lonesome
They were the best I never had
The game I almost finished
But looking back I don't miss it.
The inspiration I never wrote down
Brought me a new discovery
Now let me enjoy what I've found
A beautiful sunrise after my darkest night,
A glimmering sliver of hope
That I might break free from the sadness
To save me from the angel from my nightmare.
<rap end>
Oh baby (oh baby) I think you wanna rescue me
Oh baby (oh baby) I think you wanna rescue me
CHORUS:
Do you think about things like this?
Ive been looking for a new beginning
Cause ive been here forever
I saw sparks when we spoke
You had the smile
It said it all
I think you know what I'm talking bout
Because you saw a smile worth saving
A heart damaged and failing
So much love almost wasted
I think you.. wanna rescue me
I think, I think, I think you wanna rescue me
I think, I think, I think you wanna rescue me
CHORUS:
Do ya think about things like this? (about things like this)
'Cause Ive been looking for a new beginning
'Cause I've been here forever
No I wont admit it but you know I need saving tonight (I've been here forever)
I think your sweet enough to save me a feeling I won't fight
And if your sweet enough you know what to do...
CHORUS:
Do you think about saving me?
Cause I have..
I've been here forever
Or do you not think about things like this? (about things like this)
Cause I have
I've been here forever
Baby be my new beginning
We hit it off right before
And I've been waiting so long
And I cant wait anymore at all...
And if you were waiting for a sign
I hope you see that I'm ready
And you know what you need to do
No you don't have to ask me
Take me to places I been missing
And we can start with kissing
CHORUS:
Do you think about saving me? (about things like this)
Cause I have
I've been here forever
Or do you not think about things like this?
Cause I have
I've been here forever
Lets take it nice and slow,
Until you come with me
On a journey
To save me with a new beginning.
CHORUS:
Or do you not think about things like this? (about things like this)
Cause I have
Ive been here forever

NYASIA:
I been hurtin' for a while now
But you say that you'll be here
Why should i even trust you
And let you come near
You're not the first who's played games
So don't you think that I'll stay
If there's a chance that you're serious
You don't have to go away
CHORUS:
It was written in the sky
(our names our path and the day we'd meet)
The message was in the stars
NYASIA: (Sayin' not to let this pass me by)
The moon told no lie
(come away)
Let you and i take flight
(listen to these words)
Got so much love for you like valentines day
If you need me you just call me any day
If you like me like i like you
Then lets show and prove
CHORUS
NYASIA: I'll stay
CHRISTLO: All up in those stars yea
NYASIA: You're serious?
CHRISTLO:You know I love you..
Let's get up out of here..
I need you
NYASIA: Don't go away
CHRISTLO:The moon told no lie,
listen to these words that I say
NYASIA: Here

Lost In Translation
04:22
|
|||
Gotta pull myself together because my emotions have been tampered
I'm not discreet about showing affection but it is you that has wavered
I'm loving the crush scene but you say you don't want me
Then say you want somebody but steady chasin' money
I love the way you act and the things you do
But they don't add up with the things you say
Text conversations have been saved
All to look at on another day
To show my friends all the cute things that you say
And why i cant believe any action you display
You make up little cute names for you and me
And always in my fantasies
But you're steady focused on other things
But i come to your mind late at night
And this is what makes my mind fight, 'cause I'm
CHORUS:
(Lost in translation I'm lost in translation)
I hear your voice vibrations
Caught in body conversations
Got me
(Lost in translation, Lost in translation)
My head full of your temptation
But you're for another nation
(So I'm lost in translation)
You keep it so together but keep me so confused
You have so many persona's but treat me like I'm the mindless fool
Mislead by your words your looks and your actions
those same things that sent my heart into retraction
Over again its like a constant nuclear reaction
in reality all you wanted was just someones attention
CHORUS
I'm in this situation and its spelled Y.O.U.
And Y.O.U. doesn't give a damn bout M.E.
Yes i find this mess to be true
You don't know what you want and I'm done being stuck on Y.O.U.
CHORUS

Identity
04:46
|

CHORUS:
I lost somethin' so close to me (My Identity)
When I let you in you changed my (My Identity)
Then you split and you took with you (My Identity)
And now I'm lost and I'm tryna find (My Identity)
Never again I wanna make that mistake
I listened to my heart I gave my all for your sake
The hurt you placed on me is not goin' away
I need to get me back I need my identity
Sounds wrong yes I know
When I thought that things were perfect, it was just a show
You made me laugh, you made smile
you gave me a feeling I haven't felt for a while
And then I trusted you
And even gave out my heart to you
Never thought I'd feel this pain
Now here we go again
Goin' round in circles gettin' you off of my brain
I'm startin' to feel like all you did was play these games
You've broken all the promises that we made
Yea...
CHORUS
Got all in my world and still I don't understand
That if we were so connected I don't get what was your plan..
Each promise broken slowly one by one
Was this thing we had for real or was it for fun...
We don't see eye to eye...
So many bogus excuses...
Don't know how you did it (don't know how you did it)
Don't know why you did it (don't know why you did it)
But you did...
CHORUS
My... I... -dentity
I lost myself... in you
What is there left to do
I know I may be young but I'm sure not stupid
Give me the hardest challenge I swear I'll make it through it
If you didn't want me then why agree
CHORUS

Mirrors
03:34
|
|||
I'm the glass in the mirror frame
Reflecting what you want to see
Now you'll never be the same
Because you see what you want of me
I'm like a cheap horror film
Entertaining but easily forgettable
I'm not broke, I'm just sloppily pieced together
Moderately convincing but extremely laughable
You say I'm more than a failure
But less than a man
I wanna be remembered
As more than you say I am
CHORUS:
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Can you tell how the mighty have fallen
In the end I guess it was your call
Here thinkin' that I was steady ballin'
Mirror me what do you see
Besides a broken me lost at sea
Please the pity is too much to take
The lie means more to the liar
You call it polite I call it fake
I'm sorry but Too much sweet is just sour
Such uncertainty carried by the lonely
The weight is burdened alone
Longing for the comfort if only
His heart had a second home
My face pressed against the window pane
I breath out and sigh goodbye
I'm rough but at least I'm not a lie
CHORUS
Mirror mirror on the wall.. Mirror me (Mirror)
Mirror mirror on the wall.. Mirror me (Mirror)
CHORUS

BRENTLY:
They say love is blind, I'm just glad i got my sight
'Cause ain't no better feeling when the wrong ones prove you right. Right?
Feeling used, usually means another lonely night of using lust, without the trust, a different girl, by my pillow side...
But tonight is different, a full moon, I don't wanna lose.
This fair affair so it's only fair that I share with you.
And its only right that you spend the night but that's up to you.
You got my heart, if its my face, that you're facing, in the morning boo. Let me enlighten, this is the song that I'm reYOUminded.
'YOU' in the middle, guess you're the only one that minded.
The one I sighted, ironic, because you had me blinded.
So I guess it's love, I just hope your love is still mine...
CHORUS:
Why did I give somebody my heart
Then gave someone else a piece of it
And gave someone else my mind
And always givin' someone who isn't worth it my time (time)
I sure hope my soul is still mine (mine)
I sure hope my soul is still mine
NICKY GWIGGS:
Honestly you probably deserve a better man
'Cause I'm a risk right now, you need a better chance
To get the dreams and the lights that you need to live (to live)
I don't have much, just my heart to give (yep)
And that's a small token for whatcha missin' out on (uh huh)
Like some kids in a property to build a house on
I always pictured it was on a lake
I can't give you that.. and that's my mistake (my bad)
But am I selfish if I keep on living out this dream? (nah)
And are you selfish if you decide to just up and leave? (yeah)
At the end I hope we feel fine
'Cause that's love and I hope your love is still mine.. (yeah)
CHORUS
CHRISTLO:
I sure hope my soul, soul is still mine
I've given every one of you, every one of you my life
Maybe it's true, you can't have your cake and eat it too
That's what I get for expectin' to get somethin' outta you
I don't know why I put myself in these positions
Set myself up to be in these bad conditions
Maybe I wanna feel wanted that must be my mistake
Damn my emotional self, my feelings just won't fade
In trouble I wish they would vanish without a trace
I need to get my soul right before it's too late
I feel like I have no control (I'm always)
Followin' some other soul (Wish I could just)
Let live and let go (But I'm stuck)
But now I'm stuck wonderin' how I don't know!
CHORUS

Poetic Justice
03:45
|
|||
Feelin' misplaced like I don't belong
Heart dropped to my stomach
Feeling of fear comin' along
False accusations and no one's believing me
And with the truth no one wants to hear I'm thrown with it in the ring
I'm told the road to hell is paved with good intentions..
But the one thing someone had failed to mention
Is that hell on earth or the afterlife
... So Why do I fight
I guess you can do no right in this lifetime
Someone is always judging you of committing some crimes
And then I'm forced to put up with denotations and lies
So in my bed right here I lay here and cry
People mix up my character make me who I'm not
They wanna take my attention they wanna take my spot
Even though I'm a shy boy I'm still make you cry boy never have I heard so many lies boy
Tossin' blame 'cause no one takes responsibility no more
Don't wanna hear the truth like its some type of physical chore
Throwin' hate and shade its all the same no one is safe
So I'm askin' you who is free of sin to cast the first stone
Though I'm not perfect I don't deserve to be alone
This could be the rant of a misunderstood soul
That just might need for somebody to hold
CHORUS 1:
"Tell me and I'll forget; show me and I'll remember; involve me and I'll understand"
"Tempt not the desperate man"
"Don't underestimate your own ignorance"
"When all think alike, no one think very much"
Cant escape the hype people put upon my name
Try to do things differently but its categorized the same
And so i feel lame
'Cause no matter where I run I feel like I'm still runnin' round the same lane
And its the same game
Over and over
So I just wanna make a big wish on this 4 leaf clover, 'cause
They wanna kick me out, make me full of doubt
But I have God on my side so I cant sit and pout
People be hurtin' me, placin' false statements on me
But one day I'll be with the capital H-E
Kickin' with MJ, coolin with Aali and Left Eye maybe hear some rhymes from Pac and Biggie
Still misunderstood 'cause people try to limit me
Though I don't live my life to expectations people have of me
They took my friend from me thrown him in jail
You pass judgement but can you really dictate who pass or fails
In your eyes you can tell me its all fair 'cause you don't understand
You ain't in my shoes and your life has been so perfect man
Because my appearance i come off to you a threat
But i ain't done nothin' to no one so who is the threat
Fillin' people throats with lies I'm surprised no one has choked
I feel its gotten to the point where for the world there is no hope
Walking around aimlessly and with no conscience
Yep I'm around motherf- who have lost it
CHORUS 2:
"nothing in the world makes people so afraid as the influence of independent-minded people"
"they deem me mad for i wont sell my days for gold, i deem them mad for they think my days have a price"
Oh ooh
"i myself am made entirely out of flaws, stitched together with good intentions"
"they dont know what i been through, all youll know are the words i'll say to you"

Die Without You
04:22
|

My life and mind has change since you appeared
Some things have changed hopefully for better, we're near
The start of a new beginning
Do you hear the words that I'm singing
I would be damned if I lost you
This tugging of the heart is a pain not new
CHORUS:
I wont, I cant, I don't.. Wanna die without you
When you hold me through the night (It's not long enough)
And when you text me on the phone (It's not long enough)
And when you're making love to me (It's not long enough)
From other people hearing negatives I've had enough
I refuse to have you leave my side
You given many things to me I like
And I'd be foolish to ever let you go
So don't ever let me go 'cause I can't
Now if you love them and you never tell no lie
Tell them that you love them need them always by yo side
Tell them that they shine so bright in your eyes
Now sing it with me stronger here we go
Now if you love them and you never tell no lie
Tell them that you love them need them always by yo side
Tell them that they shine so bright in your eyes
Sing it with me now here we go, OH!
I will not die
Without you by my side
You put meaning to my life
For you I will try, I will try, I will try

Nobody understands who you are to me
Nobody else understands us but we
Nobody else gets that we ride or die
For each other they don't know that its no lie
You don't do me bogus like these other niggas
We had our fight but that was past issues
They don't get that you're my other half and when you leave me and i Cry they just look at me and laugh
Oh no (x4)
CHORUS:
Nobody understands me
Nobody else get me
Nobody else protects me
Nobody nobody
Nobody else loves me
Nobody else trusts me
Nobody nobody
But you
Nobody parties harder than we do
Gets the crowd going like we do
And though I'm sad I won't let it get to me
Throw this bottle back till I cant feel feelings
So sad that life tears you away
From the ones you love and it tears you away
CHORUS
Nobody understands why you're here for me
They don't understand what makes a we
Nobody understands why I love you and why I'd cut down any motha- that tries to touch ya
CHORUS
Noo-bod-y

Ive spent so many nights in Paris
I don't know how I've managed
To keep myself sane
Unleashing these chains
So many nights in Paris
