I’ve been in the back for too long
Grand, gimme a track – I got a new song
I don’t think they’re ready, but I’m ‘bouta bring ‘em out,
I’m ‘bouta sing it loud; now what you think about me?
Tall brown-skinned, walk like a model
Live so rich you’d think I just hit the lotto (Hey-yo!)
Hurry up or I’ll be gone…
Still runnin’ with my stilettos on!
-Chorus-
Let’s Go! [Go!]
If you wanna ride, let me know! [Know!]
Ladies, if you’re ready, hit the flo’
[Hit the flo’]
Hel-lo? Can you hear me all over the world? People all over the world
Let’s Go! Fellas, if you feel me, hit the door [Hit the door boys]
Yup, we’re goin’ live in 5…4…3-2-1
All over the world
People all over the world, we’re movin'
-V2-
Now, if my Melody too live for ya…
[I’m sorry]
If my swagga fly too high, then uh…
Here’s my apology if you never heard of my technology,
theology,
not on twitter yet but you can follow me,
And call on me; I’ll show you how to do right
I can show you where to walk, and I can be a light
Don’t worry, I’m ‘bout to work it out
Tell your neighbor no complainin’ if the beat too loud
-Rap-
Somebody betta tell 'em, "We do this"
She walkin' like a model plus my swagg so stupid
[Yup!]
God broke the mold, threw away the blueprint
Bloodline full of beasts, we ain't nothin' to fool wit' [No!]
Why don't you quit mean-muggin' and dance, tough guy
This track is too nuts for me not to go buckeye
My dougie stay Febreezed you wonder, "How he doin' that?"
From OH to the OK -- Where them Sooners at?
P.G., he hot, he's not; girl MeloVi rock, she came, now she hot
We rock the beats, every crowd gettin' rocked to sleep
Make everything else they drop obsolete [Delete!]
Check, check out my MeloVi, she doin' it
Hot now, the rest of y'all can clock out - we get it in
Haters, you can Facebook and Twitter this
We goin' all over the world...All over the world!
We goin' uptown, downtown, up north, to the dirty south,
Brooklyn, ATL, Konichiwa, Bonjour, Hola
-- All over the world...
Yo! It's ya boy, Grand. Y'all thought it was over?
We're just gettin' started. MeloVi! Where you at, ma?
-Vamp-
We're goin' to the top [Eh-Eh-Eh...]
Ain't no stoppin' [Eh-Eh-Eh...]
We're goin' to the top [Eh-Eh-Eh...]
You better keep it rockin' [Eh-Eh-Eh...]

I’m sayin’ goodbye to those old habits…
I used to let you bring me down [Oh]
I’ve had enough, now I won’t have it --
I’m in control this time around
I let you play me too many times before
No second-guessing, this time I’m for sure
I can’t take no more -- got one foot out the door
And I hear the phone ringing so I’m pressing ignore….
-Chorus-
Beep! Leave a message when you call
But you might not hear back from me at all
When you hear the “beep” leave a message on my phone
Just ‘cause I don’t answer don’t mean I’m not at home
I’m making a few rearrangements in my life
Making you one of the changes in my life
If with you's my other option I’d rather be alone
Beep! Leave a message…
Beep! Leave a message at the tone
[This call has been forwarded to the automatic voice message system. If you would like to leave a message, please press one now. Otherwise, wait for the tone]
-V2-
You’ve made your choice;
I’m afraid you’ve given me no choice,
If you miss the sound of my voice, listen to my voicemail
That'd be the only way you’re ever gonna hear it again
I might've given you the best of me,
but now I’m takin’ back what’s left of me
Keep on testing’ me; You won’t get the rest of me
No more settling for less for me
, no!
-Bridge-
Sorry but the person you’re trying to reach is unavailable
either because the phone is outside of the service area or...
You’re one of the changes – if I hurt you, I’m sorry
You’re one of the changes -- new chapter, same story
I’m turning the pages – no need to complain, just
Hear me when I say this…
You’re one of the changes

Nostalgia

Remember the first day of spring? Remember the birds they would sing?
How I used to tell you everything….slowly you became a part of me
Peaceful and calm as the summer breeze swaying the branches of the trees
It was sunny then…Do you remember when we used to be friends?
-Prechorus-
I get Nostalgia thinkin’ bout you
Try to forget it, but I don’t know to
And I wish that we could just go back in time
because your memory stays on my mind
-Chorus-
Remember......Remember……
Remember......Remember……
-V2-
Remember we used to lie awake at night under the starts by candle-light
The fire felt so right…Remember it used to be bright?
Now moonlight is fadin’ slowly, leavin’ me cold and lonely
I never wanted it to end…Oooh spring come back again
-Bridge-
I miss those times, and I know I made some mistakes and you turned away
But hear me say that each night I pray you would return to me and stay

Never Leave

-V1-
How can I trust again after all that’s happened?
Men have let me down so many times
You arms are wide open, standing there at the end
I can see the passion in your eyes
My mind is so confused; I’m sick of being used
And I left my heart in yesterday
My scars need time to heal, and I’m afraid
So I turn to walk away…then I hear you say
-Chorus-
No! Don’t go! Stay with me…I love you so
And I will never leave
My love will never leave
You can believe me
[I just wanna run away; you’re makin’ me wanna stay]
Believe in love…
-V2-
You make it sound so easy to just leave my past behind
I see where I belong, try to keep movin’ on
But I keep pressing rewind
It’s getting hard now to let my guard down
I still don’t know who holds the key
There’s nowhere to hide from the pain
So why am I still running?
-Bridge-
I’m nothing like those guys, the ones who passed you by
And didn’t realize what they had when they had it
And they compromised when they took you for granted
But I want you to know I’m here for you
And I’m lovin’ everything you do
And I’ve been watching you [I like what I see] -- Watching over you…
If you’ll let me, I can be the one to dry your eyes from every tear you cry
I’ll give you peace inside
I can hear your still, small voice inside…..

Counterfeit

-V1-
He bought me flowers…opened up all the doors
We’d talk for hours…maybe 3 or 4
Whispered sweet nothings all up in my ear
Told me just what I wanted to hear
First time we held hands…I though he was so sweet
And then we slow danced…to some R&B
Felt his fingers creepin’ just a little too low
Had the nerve to tell me I move too slow
-PreChorus-
I should’ve listened when Mama told me to be patient
‘Cause what I thought was love was only infatuation [Aaaah…]
He wanted a hook-up, I wanted a relationship
And that’s why I had to get out of it
I’m through with the counterfeit
-Chorus-
Now no longer will I…
Settle for less than what I…
Deserve, ‘cause my standard’s up high
Found a reason why I’m…
Finally leavin’, bye-bye…
Please believe it – Oh, I…
I’m through with the counterfeit
-V2-
He said, “Hey there lil’ mama. Shawty what yo name is?
Used my best line to show you how good my game is.”
I bet you think you’re cute; I just can’t get with you
‘Cause I see what you’re tryin’ to do
-PreChorus-
What happened to respect when you approach a lady?
No my name ain’t “mama,” and no, I ain’t your baby
By the look in your eyes I see you’re contemplating
Thinkin’ maybe what you can get out of it
I don’t want the counterfeit
-Bridge-
‘Cause you look one way, but you’re really another way
My daddy taught me better
You got a lot to measure up to; you better do just what you say
‘Cause we can’t walk together if we’re goin’ two different ways

Everybody wants to settle
Workin’ for nothin’, like less is better
And everybody just wants to let up
I’m makin’ somethin’ happen instead of
-PreChorus-
Watching the door waiting for what’s right in front of me
I know that more is in store for me if I just believe
-Chorus-
There’s gotta be some more! ‘
Cause my heart is beatin’ for
Have I just been dreamin’ or
Are you tellin’ me that it’s over?
There’s gotta be some more!
A feeling I cannot ignore
It’s what I’ve been screamin’ for
No way I’ll believe that it’s over!
There’s gotta be more
-V2-
They try to stop me – I’ma be runnin’
You hatin on me? Well, keep it comin’!
I’m so determined to reach 100
And can’t nobody ever keep me from it
-PreChorus-
I’m at the door waiting for what’s right in front of me
I know that more is in store for me if I just believe
-Bridge-
I’m relentless, and I’m desperate
Don’t you hear me callin’ out your name?
I’m in need of you, and I need you to
Touch me now; don’t let me leave here the same
And I know you can take me as I am
But I pray you’ll never leave me that way
‘Cause I need more and more than what I had before…

Ask: You never know, you might get the answer
Try: You never know, you just might be able to fly
Jump: You never know, you might land on your feet
Fall: You never know, love just might catch you after all
-PreChorus-
Take a risk, take a chance, take a look, take a glance into your future
This is once in a lifetime; call on your lifeline ‘fore opportunity pass you by
Make it today! Take it away!
It’s your turn now, press play
And whatever you do, don’t you hesitate
-Chorus-
If I play your favorite song,
Would you dance like there ain’t no tomorrow
All night long…
With no regret, no shame, no sorrow
Sing along, ‘cause some doors only open once and then they’re gone
Then they’re gone…
-V2-
Live: You never know, you might change the world
Give: You never know, you could be the answer to somebody’s prayers
Shine: You might as well; you know light shines brighter in the darkest places, so
Smile: Find your joy inside, ‘cause life is what you make it, and….
-Rap-
They say life is what you make it....Then why not make it perfect.
Would you rather drown or swim above the surface?
So go take a chance cuz you know that it's worth it.
They tried to tell me that my dream wasn't logical.
But iCouldnt stop cuz my dream wasn't optional
Now I'm right there and I'm felling unstoppable.
So let me tell you now that anything's possible.
So if you want it you can have it all.
Don't let em tell you that to walk first you have to crawl.
You can be So Fly you dont have to fall.
But if you don't try it's something you won't have at all.
Now iWanna see your hands if you ready to advance and gonna take the chance.
And you will see how your life expands.
Then you'll be able dance when they play you favorite song…

Feels like I’m suffocating, and the walls are caving in
Who’s gonna save me in the nick of time?
Rivers rage all around me; water tryin’ to drown me
But I hear the sound…he’s on his way to save the day
-PreChorus-
What is that in the sky?
Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Is he flying without wings?
I believe he can do anything
People say there’s no time
He’ll never make it, and she can’t take it much longer,
But I know he’s much stronger, and he heard me cry for…
-Chorus-
My Superhero
My Superhero
My Superhero
My Superhero
-V2-
Feel like a damsel in distress
How did I get into this mess?
In so deep I don’t see a way out
And I don’t even wanna think about
What just might happen to me
If nobody can rescue me from this dragon’s lair
I let down my hair, no one was there, until out of nowhere…
-Bridge-
Faster than the speed of light, he comes along to save my life
When I am in trouble all I have to do is call his name

-V1-
Maybe it’s my fear of losing you forever that makes me never wanna let you go
I’m too scared to jumpin head over heels; if I don’t I’ll never know
What could’ve been should’ve, what would’ve been could’ve that’s how it goes
What happens when what happens next is then happening and it shows
No one can rescue me from myself; it feels like I’m falling so fast I can’t help it
And I wonder if you’re wondering what I’m thinking
Maybe you’re sinking in this love like me
Fall in love with me
-V2-
Maybe love is blind so neither you or I can see together’s where we really ought to be
Let’s you and me have a little get-together, a picnic beside the sea
We’ll be watching the sun rise and fall, and we’ll call it our destiny
As I look in your eyes and mine start to tear, feels like eternity
No one can rescue me from myself; it feels like I’m falling so fast I can’t help it
And I wonder if you’re wondering what I’m thinking
Maybe you’re sinking in this love like me
Fall in love with me
-Bridge-
Why must we live this way?
Why must we play these silly games?
[I’m here to let you know what love really is…]
It’s not just a feeling, not just an emotion, but it goes much deeper
It goes into our actions and the way we live our lives so show love when you smile
-Chorus-
It’ll make the world a better place if we can get it together and get together
Let’s get it…..get together
I don’t care whether or not the weather is hot or cold, let’s grow old together,
And let’s get it together now
Remember, love goes much deeper than this…
