My People |
My eyes are green |
'Cause I eat a lot of vegetables |
It don’t have nothing to do with your new friend |
My eyes are green |
'Cause I eat a lot of vegetables |
It don’t have nothing to do with your new friend |
I don’t care, I swear |
I’m too through with you, I am |
You don’t mean nothing to me |
So go ahead and be with your friend |
My eyes are green |
'Cause I eats a lot of vegetables |
It don’t have nothing to do with your new friend |
I’m insecure |
But I can’t help it |
My mind says move on |
My heart lags behind |
But I don’t love you any more |
I’m so insecure |
Never knew that love did this |
Ooh, ooh, ooh |
Ooh, ooh, ooh |
I can’t remember the last time I felt this way |
About somebody |
You’ve done something to my mind |
And I can’t control it |
But I don’t love you any more |
Yes, I do, I think |
Loving you is wrong |
Ooh, ooh, ooh |
Ooh, ooh, ooh |
La-di-da |
Dum-dee-da-da |
Dum-didi-da-di-da-di-da |
Dum-didi-da-di-dum-di |
I’m so confused |
You tried to trick me, yeah |
Ooh, ooh, ooh |
Never knew that love could hurt like this |
Never thought I would, but I got dissed |
Makes me feel so sad and hurt inside |
Feel embarrassed so I want to hide |
Silly me—I thought your love was true |
Change my name to Silly E. Badu |
Before I heal, it’s gonna be a while |
I know it’s gonna be a while, chil' |
I hope it’s not too late |
Too late, too late, too late, too late, too— |
Feeling insecure |
Love has got me sore |
I don’t want no more |
Oh, oh |
It’s too late, oh, oh ooh, ooh |
I’m sorry I love you |
At first, it was cool |
You told me you loved me, too, ooh |
And then you lost your love |
Oh, then you lost your love |
And then you lost your love |
You wanted me to go away |
But I can’t go |
See, I can’t leave, it’s too late |
I can’t leave, it’s too late |
I can’t leave, it’s too late |
I can’t leave, it’s too late |
Just make love to me |
Just one more time and then you’ll see |
I can’t believe I made a desperate plea |
What’s with me? |
Me? |
Me, yeah, ye-ah, no, oh |
You see I can’t leave, it’s too late |
I can’t leave, it’s too late |
Don’t you know, I can’t leave, it’s too late |
Can’t go nowhere, no |
It’s too late |
It’s too late |
It’s too late |
It’s too late, yeah |
Come on, babe |
Don’t you wanna be strong with me? |
You told me we could have a family |
Wanna run to mama when you’re down and low |
But times get tough, and there you go |
Ooh, out the door, you wanna run again |
Open the arms and you’ll come back in |
Wanna run 'cause you say that you were afraid, afraid, oh |
Never knew what a friendship was |
Never knew how to really love |
You can’t be what I need you to |
And I don’t know why I fuck with you |
I know our love will never be the same |
But I can’t stand these growing pains |
