You look incredible.
Collar popped ain't no stopping you invincible.
Yo hair is slick frosted the tips and all.
Floss a bit pop a mint and then ya out the door.
You got them icy cuffs
With ya shirt hanging open knowing they will touch.
You got that swag ain't lacking nothin much.
Got a plan with ya wingman you gonna own this club.
Hot damn! Feel that fever burning out of control.
You coming on like an animal.
You on the prowl like you a cannibal.
You think ya smooth but you just typical.
You coming on like an animal.
You got your war paint on.
Tryin on every outfit that you ever owned.
Oooh pouty lips take 15 pics to show,
Got your hips well lit from every angle.
Girl ya fly can't deny got ya hair blown out and
Ya never had man you ever doubted
You could get em shouting bout the way you moving round
Get em feeling proud and then you shut em down and throw em out cause
You got it on you got it on you got it on.
You coming on like an animal.
You on the prowl like you a cannibal.
You think ya smooth but you just typical.
You coming on like an animal.
Hush
Oh come and get it,
My love is hot and ready.
You coming on like an animal.
You on the prowl like you a cannibal.
You think ya smooth but you just typical.
You coming on like an animal.

What happened to you that made you act so cold?
You say what you want whenever you want then you call it real you call it bold.
Havent you ever been wrong, forgot the lyrics to a song?
It gets old when you’ve got the answers though you’ve never been told.
But seriously, what made you the way you are?
Did life hit you one too many times too hard?
And punch drunk you came lunging back without a target to attack,
Whoa, you got to know.
It’s a heavy weight,
When you been shouldering the stones everywhere you go,
Looking for a chance to throw, its getting too hard to hold,
Cause it’s a heavy weight you know.
Whoa to the one who wanders in your way,
They're gonna pay for things they never did or said for debts they never made.
Didn't you know you’ll never add a measure to your level cutting people down?
Still you try to lay them in the ground.
But you should know you're gonna prove with all the things you do,
What goes around really comes around again.
What goes around really comes around again.
It’s a heavy weight,
When you been shouldering the stones everywhere you go,
Looking for a chance to throw, its getting too hard to hold,
Cause it’s a heavy weight you know.

Mr. Right Time

Nobody gonna come and save us babe, so why you looking round?
I ain’t no hero in a cape, I hate to let you down.
Though I try to make it better, the words won't go away,
Cause the pain can stay forever that only takes you a second to say.
You made a list of your Mr. Right,
That was stolen and broken the day I made you mine.
Maybe you miss what you didn’t find.
Was I the one or was I just Mr. Right Time?
You never found the one you thought you wanted, I know that you’re thinking it.
And now I’m all you got and it aint a lot, but I aint gonna quit.
Cause nobody’s perfect and no ones enough,
When you compare them to the list in your head.
You didn’t get what you want but you might have got,
What you needed instead.
You made a list of your Mr. Right,
That was stolen and broken the day I made you mine.
Maybe you miss what you didn’t find,
Was I the one or was I just Mr. Right Time?
You got to say what you gotta say babe,
When you change your mind you're gonna realize,
That you made a list but it wasn’t right,
Because I am more than just Mr. Right Time.
Nobody gonna come and save us babe, but words wont walk away
Cause some pain can stay forever that only took us a second to say.

Don't You Worry

You know everybody has a voice inside
That’s been trying to keep our minds occupied
With the ridicule we carry
And the secrets that we bury
Every word that ever made us want to run and hide.
Cause trouble is coming faster than it goes
When you're running from your imaginary foes
So scared of what might happen
That your fears will leave you trapped inside
This accidental prison you designed.
Now now now now don’t you worry
Cause it’ll bring you down down down down in a hurry
So lift your head up child though its been awhile since you got a smile from anybody.
It’s turning round round round in a hurry
So don’t you worry.
And if you begin to feel you’re not enough
And there’s no way that you can ever measure up
When the steps you should be taking
Feel so big you cannot make them
And you think you're on the edge of giving up.
Now now now now don’t you worry
Cause it’ll bring you down down down down in a hurry
Lift your head up child though its been awhile since you got a smile from anybody,
It’s turning round round round in a hurry
So don’t you worry.
This fear has left you grounded here and waiting for the sun to appear
Have a little faith the skies are gonna clear.
Now now now now don’t you worry
Cause it’ll bring you down down down down in a hurry
Lift your head up child though its been awhile since you got a smile from anybody,
It’s turning round round round in a hurry
So don’t you worry.

Mama told me they were criminals,
I shouldn't pay em any mind.
I never wanted to be cynical, should have known,
Better than to think it a lie.
Back when I was just a little bo',
She'd a worry all the time,
So afraid that I'd be typical then I'd go,
Making my way to the dark side of life.
She was singing, she was singing, she was singing...
You better sing like no ones home
Love like it can't go wrong
And let the music make you move it like we ain't watching.
Mama watched me like a prisoner,
She pay attention like a guard.
I should have been a better listener but i preferred diggin my way out the yard.
I was thinking like an amateur,
I never made it very far.
She took me down like a sabotaur then I learned
Never to stray from the right side of war.
She was singing, she was singing, she was singing...
You better sing like no ones home
Love like it can't go wrong
And let the music make you move it like we ain't watching.
Mama I wanna be a king, ruler of all these things.
She told me power's never all it seems, but still I wanna sing.
And still I wanna see my name shine in stadium lights, bright, they light up the night so my haters could see me at the top whenever they do the final tally. And I'll take the long road, y'all can have the alley. And she was singing the same song, "You better stay strong and you better play on like we ain't watching."
You better sing like no ones home
Love like it can't go wrong
And let the music make you move it like we ain't watching.
