God's Stepchild


( From " Velvet Rope " Japan Version )

Gotta story for you
'Bout a little friend
Never felt good enough
Had a heart to mend
Never felt pretty
Learned to just pretend
Wished someone had listened
To her cries of pain

Maybe I'm the lucky one
Maybe the forgotten one
Maybe, but I know
I'm not God's stepchild

Didn't want to burden
Mother had enough stress
So often I'd talk to you
Through my four legged friends
Always there to listen
Though I felt so all alone
And in my times of trouble
I know
You saw my smile of pain

Maybe I'm the lucky one
Maybe the forgotten one
Maybe, but I know
I'm not God's stepchild
Maybe I'm the lucky one
Maybe the forgotten one
Maybe, but I know
I'm not God's stepchild

Now that I am older
Gone through so much pain
I learned that I should love me
No more feeling ashamed
I've seen the great illusions
I've seen the rough terrain
I've walked through my own journey
And my love for you remains

Maybe I'm the lucky one
Maybe the forgotten one
Maybe, but I know
I'm not God's stepchild
Maybe I'm the lucky one
Maybe the forgotten one
Maybe, but I know
I'm not God's stepchild

I know I'm the lucky one
I know I'm a special one
I know, that God does
Not have a stepchild.

So I can love, gonna give you hotter rubs
Dem ever wet kisses with dem brazen hugs
And now your sweet silky body on my Persian rug
While we be sippin’ Coke from the same ol’ mug
I’m readin’ fortune cookie from the Chinese proverb
It said some great ??? it with some cool rub-a-dub
A little old reminisce in the hot tub, huh

Your the only girl allowed to make my heart stop beat
Let me, ha-ha, ??? let’s kickin’ heartlessly
To be the lady of your color is an honor indeed

I want to throw rose petals to your humble feet
Lay you gently on my sheet and sexercise you to sleep, huh

Scream


( Whit Michael Jackson )

Tired of injustice Tired of the schemes
Kinda disgusted So what does it mean
Kicking me down I got to get up As jacked as it sounds
The whole system sucks

Peek in the shadow Come into the light
You tell me I'm wrong Then you better prove you're right
You're sellin' out souls but I care about mine I've got to get stronger
And I won't give up the fight

With such confusions don't it make you wanna scream
Your bash abusin' victimize within the scheme

You try to cope with every lie they scrutinize

Somebody please have mercy 'Cause I just can't take it
Stop pressurin' me Just stop pressurin' me
Stop pressurin' me Make me wanna scream
Stop pressurin' me Just stop pressurin' me
Stop pressurin' me Make you just wanna scream

Tired of you tellin' the story your way
It's causin' confusion You think it's okay

Keep changin' the rules While you're playin' the game
I can't take it much longer I think I might go insane

With such confusion don't it make you wanna scream
Your bash abusin' victimize within the scheme

You find your pleasure scandalizin' every lie

Oh father, please have mercy 'cause I just can't take it
Stop pressurin' me Just stop pressurin' me
Stop pressurin' me Make me wanna scream
Stop pressurin' me Just stop pressurin' me
Stop fuckin' with me Make me wanna scream

"Oh my God, can't believe what I saw As I turned on the TV this evening I was disgusted by all the injustice
All the injustice"
"All the injustice"

"A man has been brutally beaten to death by Police after being wrongly identified as a robbery suspect.
The man was an 18 year old black male..."

With such collusions don't it make you wanna scream
Your bash abusin' victimize within the scheme

You try to cope with every lie they scrutinize

Oh brother please have mercy
'Cause I just can't take it

Stop pressurin' me Just stop pressurin' me
Stop pressurin' me Make me wanna scream

Stop pressurin' me Just stop pressurin' me
Stop pressurin' me Make me wanna scream

Stop pressurin' me Just stop pressurin' me
Stop pressurin' me Make me wanna scream

Stop pressurin' me Just stop pressurin' me
Stop pressurin' me Make me wanna scream

I Know The Truth


( Whit Elton John )

How have I come to this
How did I slip and fall
How did I throw half a lifetime away
Without any thought at all

This should've been my time
It's over, it never began
Facing a world, for once not on my side
I simply turned and ran

I try to blame it on fortune
Some kind of twist in my fate
But I know the truth and it haunts me
I learned it a little too late

I know the truth and it mocks me
I know the truth and it shocks me
I learned it a little too late

People have faith in me
I think I once did too
I promise whoever has a hold on our lives
I'll see the bad times through

This should have been my time
It's over, it never began
Facing a world, for once not on my side
I simply turned and ran

I try to blame it on fortune
Some kind of shift in the stars
But I know the truth and it haunts me
It's flown just a little too far

I know the truth and it mocks me
I know the truth and it shocks me
It's flown just a little too far

I try to blame it on fortune
Some kind of twist in my fate
But I know the truth and it haunts me
I learned it a little too late

My dream who only loves me for me.

Diamonds


You tell me you love me
You tell me you care
But when I'm around you
It's like I'm not there
I need a reminder
Something can see
Something on my finger
Shining so brightly

Don't you know
Diamonds are a girls' best friend
When you go
They stay with me until the end
Don't you know
Diamonds are a girls' best - best friend
When you go
They stay with me until the end

Don't want your money
Don't want your key
Diamonds
Love don't come for free
Don't want your money
Don't want your key
Diamonds
Love don't come for free

You sent me some roses
But roses do die
You gave me some candy
It melted - nice try
I'm not that demanding
I have simple taste
I just want a token
That can't go to waste
Diamonds

Don't you know
Diamonds are a girls' best friend
When you go
They stay with me until the end
Don't you know
Diamonds are a girls' best - best friend
When you go
They stay with me until the end

Making Love In The Rain


Making love in the rain, I can't believe the joy it brings me
And when I'm all alone, I hear the rain on my window

It's just a little thing, but it means so much to me
Our bodies together, while the rain plays a melody

Every raindrop makes me think of you
(Wishing you were close to me)
There is nothing that I'd rather do

Than

Making love in the rain, I can't believe the joy it brings me
And when I'm all alone, I hear the rain on my window

When it's stormy outside, it's calm in my heart, with you in my arms
And when you're away from me, I wish it would rain 'cause it's always the same

Every raindrop makes me think of you
(Wishing you were close to me)
There is nothing that I'd rather do
(Rather do)

Than

Making love in the rain, I can't believe the joy it brings me
(I can't believe)
And when I'm all alone, I hear the rain on my window
(On my window)

Every raindrop makes me think of you
(Wishing you were close to me)
There is nothing (Nothing) that I'd rather do than
(That I'd rather do than)

Making love in the rain, I can't believe the joy it brings me
(Oh, oh making love)
And when I'm all alone
(All alone), I hear the rain on my window
(On my window, I hear it rain, yeah)

Making love in the rain, I can't believe the joy it brings me

Ooh, ooh ooh yeah
All alone, I hear the rain, I hear the rain
Oh, oh, oh
Oh no here comes the rain
Oh no here comes the rain
Oh no here comes the rain
Oh no here comes the rain

One More Chance


Just remember everything I told you
Sorry for the pain that I have caused you
You know it's true, I want to stay
I know you tried to make it what I should have been
You were there to help me when I couldn't have been
I don't know whatever came over me

Gimme that one more chance
Remember all that we've planned
Gimme that one more chance, for me
Gimme that one more chance
Remember all that we've planned
Gimme that one more chance, for me

I just wanna do half of what you do
And I know it seems so strange of me to say this
If there is a hundred ways to say it
All in one it means, don't go away
Everybody's going round tellin' you lies
They don't know how hard that I've tried
You know it takes the pressure, for me to see
Woo

Gimme that one more chance
Remember all that we've planned
Gimme that one more chance, for me
Gimme that one more chance
Remember all that we've planned
Gimme that one more chance, for me

If you could read my mind, how wonderful it'd be
Heaven's hard to find, and what it means to me is so divine

Gimme that one more chance
Remember all that we've planned
Gimme that one more chance, for me
Gimme that one more chance
Remember all that we've planned
Gimme that one more chance, for me

I'm gonna prove it
I know we can do this
Whoo
Love's not a playground
I think I let you down

The Best Things In Life Are Free


( With Luther Vandross )

Are you ready?
Free, free, baby,
Boy, when you look at me,
Do you judge me by my cover?
Got to be kiddin' me, to think that I'm that kind of lover
I don't mean to disagree, sorry, you can't buy my kisses
Open your eyes and see,
True love comes for free

I'm keepin' my heart open, and hopin' you won't stab me in it
'Cause I've been in love before, and when I had to pay I didn't
I'll lose my sanity, tryin' to measure your intentions
What do you want from me?
How much will it be?

No more than you're willing to give
'Cause you won't pay nothin' for this good lovin', it's for free

And I won't make you promises,
I'll just do all I can to be your lover 'cause I understand

The best things in life are free,
Now that I've discovered what you mean to me

You said it twice, I'll say it thrice my baby baby baby

And it's easy to give it when I know you feel the same way too

That's all I expect from you,
Just do all that you can to be my lover 'cause I understand,

They say,

The best things in life are free,
Now that I've discovered what you mean to me
The best things in life are free,

A lot of bone structure, I can make it last
A minute to win it, I deep fill the past
Materio went perio, so get the info
You know, I know, it's not about the dough
So maybe baby, if you want to be my lady
I'll forget the riches and the other itches
Mo' money, mo' money, Jam & Lewis here we go

You Need Me


As a child I missed a lot of love I never had
And daddy he was distant
Never there to hold my hand
Never bought the things he'd always promise to give me
Mother made up for him always watching over me
Days would go by and we would never see his face
In my mind I'd wonder "Does he have another place?"
If and when he'd come in he would always be upset
All the kids were scared his next syndrome would be a fret

Now that you are older and you begin to see
Family's important to be there if you need
Father never taught us these things mom said to me
Now the table's turned so tell me you need me

Tell me
Tell me
Tell me
Just to me
You need me

Daddy daddy dearest, what is it you want from me
(Tell me)
I won't turn my back on you the way you did with me
Now you try to give and always faking not to cry
I'll give you what I can but I can't give what I don't have
Mother lends a shoulder, to cry on if you need
But are you there for mother when she needs your company?

Father never taught us, these things mom said to me
Now the table's turned so tell me
You need me

Tell me
Tell me
Tell me
Tell me
Say
You need me

If you realize we need each other, we will be a closer family.
I need you, yeah
I need you, and you know that
Say
You need me

Now that you are older and you begin to see
Family's important to be there if you need
Father never taught us, no no never taught us
Just to me
You need me

Tell me that you need me
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you need me
Just to me
Say
You need me

Now that you are older and you begin to see
Family's important to be there if you need
Father never taught us these things mom said to me
Now the table's turned so tell me you need me

Tell me
Tell me
Tell me
Just to me
You need me

Mother lends a shoulder to cry on if you need
But are you there for mother when she needs your company?
Are you there for mother?
Are you there for mother?
Are you there for mother?
Father never taught us these things mom said to me
Just to me
You need me
