The Thing I Like

Hmmm 1993
Yo Liyah why don't you do me a favour
Why don't you let all of the fellas out there know
That they got a thing that you like, yeah
Here we go, here we go, here we go

CHORUS:

You've got that thing I like 4x

Verse 1:

Boy you know just what to do
When it comes down to lovin' me
That is why I'm into you
Cause we've got a love that's guaranteed
I got to let you know just how I feel
Cause I never felt like this before
And when you touch me where you touch me
When you call my name
I get a little weak, cause boy you've got that thing

CHORUS

Verse 2:

I'm so glad we got together
Cause I've been jockin' you for so long
And it seems that you feel the same about me
How could something like this feel so strong
Something about the way you smile at me
It takes away my worries and my doubts
And when you kiss me wher you kiss me
When you call my name
I get a little weak, cause boy you've got that thing

CHORUS:

R Kelly won't you rap for me

Rap - R Kelly:

Mmm-wa here's a little kiss for you honey dip
Now I know you got a thing for me
Mmmm. Here's my number so call me
And we can get together and catch a movie

It's good to know we got something in common see
So if lovin' you's wrong I don't wanna be right
Because you got the thing that I like, I'm our

Freedom

We will not bow down to racism
We will not bow down to injustice
We will not bow down to exploitation
I'm gon' stand, I'm gon' stand

Now this is time for free your mind and your soul
Yo our official story has never been told
Ladies you got to demand what you want
And what we want is respect, right
Come and take a walk with me a closer walk
With thee see what only I can see
Sisters check this, watch this

Freedom....

Turn us down set us free
From all the chains that bind me
Let us run in our own direction
Let us go set us free
From all this propaganda and lies
That your people tried to teach us
I know why you would like to bring us down
Because we have all the dirt on you
You try to tell us that our lives don't mean a damn
But we know so much better so we're gonna
Take a free freedom

CHORUS:
Freedom
Freedom for my body
Freedom for my mind
Freedom for my spirit
Freedom
Freedom for my body
Freedom for my mind
Freedom for my spirit

All this time you've been telling us these lies
But now we've finally figured out your game
You thought that we would never wise up
But we showed you how a black female can do her thing
But still you continue to keep us oppressed
But no we ain't going out like that (oh no no)
All these lies and all this propaganda
You want us to take
We're gonna take our

CHORUS

I see the fear in your eyes surprised
Your cover's been blown
I know just who I am and what I wanna do
I can make you run
Make you hide from all your ancestors
Transgression that you hold inside
Sisters rising up and seeing that our time is here
We're taking back what's been ours for years
Let the heaven of a sister embrace you
And praise them other gods
All these lies and all this propaganda
That you want us to take
We're gonna take our

Free free free
Freedom
Freedom
Ooooooohhh...bop

Free free free
Freedom
Freedom

Freedom

Freedom for my body
Freedom for my body
Freedom for my body
Freedom for my body

Journey To The Past

Heart dont fail me now
Courage don't desert me, dont turn back now that were here
People always say life is full of choices
No one ever mentions fear
or how the road can seem so long
how the world can seem so vast
courage see me thru, heart im trusting you
On this journey to the past...

Somewhere down this road, I know someone's waiting
Years of dreams just can't be wrong
Arms will open wide, I'll be safe and wanted
Finally home where I belong
well starting here my life begins
starting now I'm learning fast
courage see me thru, heart im trusting you
on this journey to the past

heart dont fail me now (no)
courage dont desert me.

Home, love, family; there was once a time I must have had them too
Home, love, family; I will never be complete until I find you (heyy)

One step at a time
One hope then another
Who knows where this road may go?
Back to who I was
On to find my future
things my heart still needs to know
Yes, let this be a sign
Let this truth be mine
Let it lead me to my past
courage see me thru, heart im trusting you
to bring me home
At last!

Turn The Page

A special smile
A certain touch
I never had a love
that I loved so much
When I look back
You're everywhere
Turn the page, You were there

My very best friend,
My summer day
My only someone to depend on
when I’m lost in my way
You came and answered
my every prayer
Turn the page, You were there

What would I do if some strange morning
I open up my eyes to find you’re gone
I can’t imagine how I would survive that
Find another reason to go on

My one sure thing
My solid ground
All I ever wanted
was the love that we found
When I look back
you're everywhere
Turn the page, You were there

What would I do if some strange morning
I open up my eyes to find you’re gone
I can’t imagine how I would survive that
I can’t imagine how I would go on

A special smile
A certain touch
I never had a love
that I loved so much
When I look back
you're everywhere
Turn the page, You were there

You came and answered
My every prayer
Turn the page, You were there

Try Again

Timbaland's Intro:
It's been a long time, we shouldn't have left you
Left you, without a dope beat to step to
Step to, step to, step to.

Aaliyah - VERSE 1:
What would you do, to get to me?
What would say, to have your way?
Would you give up or try again,
If I hesitate to let you in?
Now would you be yourself, or play a role?
Tell all the boys, or keep it low?
If I say no, would you turn away,
Or play me off or would you stay (oooohhh)

CHORUS:
If at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed),
Then dust yourself off and try again
You can dust if off and try again, try again
'Cause if at first you don't succeed (at first you don't succeed)
You can dust it off and try again, dust yourself off and try again,
Try again

Aaliyah - Verse 2:
I'm went you, you went me,
but I can't let it go, so easily
Not 'till I see, where this could be,
could be eternity, or just week
You know our chemistry, is off the chain
It's perfect now, but will it change?
This ain't a yes, this ain't a no
Just do your thang, and we'll see how it goes (oooohhh)

(Repeat chorus)

BRIDGE:
See you don't wanna throw it all away,
I might be shy on the first day, but what about the next day
(huh, huh, huh, huh)
See you don't wanna throw it all away,
I might be buggin' on the first day but what about the next day
(huh, huh, huh, huh)

(Repeat chorus twice)

Timbaland's Outro:
It's been a long time, we shouldn't have left you
Left you, without a dope beat to step to
Step to, step to, step to

I know you like to rip and run the streets
But I get nervous sometimes
Oooh baby I can't help to think
You might not make it home to eat

And let me know you ain't in some heat
And don't go crying, you're grown
You know I'm lookin out for you
Cause you be lookin out for me, me, me

Yo you can go with your dogs
If you make this promise to me
You make it back in one piece
So you can go with your dogs
If you make this promise to me

If you make this promise to me

Nothin's too big nothin's too small jus go ball, (Hey, Hey)

DMX:
Uh dog tags around me neck the streets are mine
I might leave the heat behind
Cause in the streets I'm fine
That's why niggas sleep til nine

Dog with a dog, ride til we die
If it's on then it's on
