Unhappy 03:55
You keep on stressing me / And testing me / Trying my patience / Trying to keep up with me Just be a man to me / Take time to see / If I need comforting / I’ve given you all of me I got me head on straight / Baby cause you’re too late / To try to change my mind Cause I can’t wait / I got me head on straight / Baby cause you’re too late To try to change my mind / Cause I can’t wait (Chorus) I won’t spend another day Unhappy / I won’t spend another day Unhappy (2nd Verse) I think as far as us now / You must know that we are through / I got my own point of view Figure out what you gon’ do / You got to know its hard for me / For a change I can see I gave my all to you / So what are you gon’ do / You need to get your head on straight Baby cause you’re too late / To try to change my mind / Cause I can’t wait You need to get your head on straight / Baby cause you’re too late / To try to change my mind Cause I can’t wait (Chorus) I won’t spend another day Unhappy / I won’t spend another day Unhappy (Bridge) I got my own point of view / Now I’m through with you / Gotta move on because I’m heartbroken I got my own point of view / Now I’m through with you / Gotta move on because I’m heartbroken (Chorus) I won’t spend another day Unhappy / I won’t spend another day Unhappy

(Chorus) The hustle that we live / can be somewhat hard Strive and just give in and you will get what you want Because In the end you are willing to go beyond Let your life light shine and one day you will be a star forever Now don’t forget how to become of essence (of essence) And don’t forget how to appreciate and count your blessings (Yes!) (1st Verse) How do we get it back, get it back / how do we How do we get it back / How do we Life is an unexpected journey / Your glass is half full not half empty Take a look in the mirror with me / And say nothing can defeat me You’re to the point where you had enough / It hurts to fall so you gotta get up Hurts worse to fail so stand up / You gotta fight for what you want (Chorus) The hustle that we live / can be somewhat hard Strive and just give in and you will get what you want Because In the end you are willing to go beyond Let your life light shine and one day you will be a star forever Now don’t forget how to become of essence (of essence) And don’t forget how to appreciate and count your blessings (Yes!) (2nd Verse) Life can be wonderful (If you take it back) Life can be beautiful (If you want it back) I know sometimes its hard and things seem strange You need the money / won’t beg just want something to change You look to your fellow man and ask him for help And he says how can I help you When I can’t even help myself (its hard) (Chorus) The hustle that we live / can be somewhat hard Strive and just give in and you will get what you want Because In the end you are willing to go beyond Let your life light shine and one day you will be a star forever Now don’t forget how to become of essence (of essence) And don’t forget how to appreciate and count your blessings (Yes!) (Bridge) The Hustle / The Hustle that we live The Hustle / The Hustle that we live Its not worth it / Its easy Cause its hard / Cause its hard Can be hard / Can be hard / Can be hard / Can be hard It’s the Hustle / U better act like U know (Reprise) The Hustle that we live / The Hustle that we live Can be somewhat hard / Can be somewhat hard But its okay

The U 04:30
(1st Verse) We’ve been through the good / Gone through the bad It’s such a beautiful thing When you can come back to Love / Synchronized, we think alike Respect each other / accept one another The Spirit planned for us / To always be there for one another And I never knew / How much we would grow together Nevertheless Be better, Be better (Chorus) I just realized that this was meant, Meant to be I look in your eyes / I see a part of me And I can’t deny / All this is true I couldn’t lie if I wanted to I love the You in You / I love the You in You (2nd Verse) Whether we fail or win / Begin by just trying No matter the task / We can succeed / You mentally feed me Thankful but never full / Can’t get enough of you This some potent stuff / Powerful, untainted / Can’t move restrainment In, you got me tied up / The balance I get from you / Its relaxing Its relaxing tender consistent and intriguing (Chorus) I just realized that this was meant, Meant to be I look in your eyes / I see a part of me And I can’t deny / All this is true I couldn’t lie if I wanted to (Bridge) It’s so weird to have someone / Who really loves you That’s got your back / And I like I said before Through the ups and downs / He’s never going He’s gonna stick around The You / The You / Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes / The You The energy I get from you / It’s out of my hands I didn’t see it coming / The you inside of you I’m into the You / Inside of you

You had me gone / You had me / You had Me You had me gone Through all the pain / I was submissive / stuck in the rain You had me twisted / Silent for years The strength in me waited / You had my mind stupid You had me headless / You had me Gone You had me / You Had me / You had me Gone Me gone / Headless / You had me Gone / Nose wide open (You had me) I was gone/ My mind was twisted / Gone (You had me) Gone Because I’m hurting yea / I’m crying / I’m hurting yea I’ve lost it / Trying to figure it out / figure it out / figure it out I’m crying / Cause you had me Gone

Had Me Gone 04:00
(1st Verse) I wiped my tears for the last time No more fighting for Love / Spent so much time at war From the death of us / It’s time to move on I could care less who’s wrong Don’t need another sad Love song / I am stronger And I hold all the pieces to put me back together (Chorus) See at one time / You had me gone Yea you had me gone / See at one time You had me gone / Yea you had me gone There should be no confusion / As to why I left you Wish I never met you / See at one time You had me gone (Verse 2) Spent my ends for the last time / You just can’t get enough Gave my strength to the last war / Pretending to be tough I am Broken / Tears can form a stream My love you must redeem / No longer do you have access To feel the heat that I bring (Chorus) See at one time / You had me gone Yea you had me gone / See at one time You had me gone / Yea you had me gone There should be no confusion / As to why I left you Wish I never met you / See at one time You had me gone (Bridge) Every since the last time I promised myself No more heartaches / I felt Love was a mistake Put up barriers where it hurt / Take it away The pain he gave / My feelings weren’t free Just to be in Love / Then you sat in front of me A new man that loves me / And treats me like a lady At one time you might’ve had me gone At one time you might’ve had me gone (Chorus) See at one time / You had me gone Yea you had me gone / See at one time You had me gone / Yea you had me gone There should be no confusion / As to why I left you Wish I never met you / See at one time You had me gone

(Verse 1) One day / I’ll have love unconditional Spiritual / Mental Something that falls deep in me It will be genuine and pure in all forms Just like the comfort of the Sun Keeping me warm / Keeping me warm I’ve been scorned / Torn to threads In situations where I’ve almost / Lost my damn head But instead / I learned from my mistakes I hesitated to find fate / Can you relate To the things I’m saying Let me Speak Let me release (Chorus) I need Love / That will show me relief Not the grief / Be the lining on my leaf The part that makes me complete I want love to be deep In the place that’s far in between Unseen / Unheard of before Give me something Or nothing at all (Verse 2) I want more than what I been settling for Before was a bore Talking the same conversation About what they drive Do that to my mind / ride me The technicalities and material things They don’t mean a thing This is reality to me I want something skin deep Where my flame is there’s heat Check my core, in the center / Its sweet Are you feeling my list for me Can someone hear me speak Let me release Let me release (Chorus) I need Love / That will show me relief Not the grief / Be the lining on my leaf The part that makes me complete I want love to be deep In the place that’s far in between Unseen / Unheard of before Give me something Or nothing at all I want something a little more Than what I’ve been getting / I’m worth it And this is what I want Don’t be changed with Love Do you wanna hear it just a little louder Always be true to you I can speak just a little louder Don’t be changed with Love Always be true to you
