PROMISED LIKE THE PRESIDENT AND KISSED ME LIKE THE KING

HE’S THE TYPE OF CHEAP SUIT I AM TRYING TO GET OVAH
RESPECT TO YOU SWEETIE I WANNA WISH YOU LUCK
I KNOW YOURE GONNA NEED IT ‘CAUSE YOUR MANS A GREAT
ACTOR, ACTOR, YOUR MAN , YOUR MAN

HE’S SUCH A GREAT ACTOR
WELL I AM NOT THE KIND OF WOMAN TO GET IN CUPIDS WAY
BUT HOW WAS I TO KNOW I WAS CO-STARRING IN HIS PLAY
HE COULD WIN THE OSCAR FOR THE GUY WHO PLAYS THE PART
OF AN HONEST LOVING MAN WHILE HES DRAGGING ROUND YOUR HEART
HE’S TREATS YOU LIKE A QUEEN ‘CAUSE HE KNOWS YOU'RE A BEGINNER
RUNS TO CHURCH ON SUNDAY TO CONFESS THAT HE’S A SINNER
RESPECT TO YOU SWEETIE I WANNA WISH YOU LUCK
I KNOW YOURE GONNA NEED IT CAUSE YOUR MAN’S SUCH A GREAT
ACTOR, ACTOR, YOUR MAN , YOUR MAN
YOUR MAN, YOUR MAN
HE’S SUCH A GREAT ACTOR

Hey Mr President
How much you charge for privacy
Do you really need to know
How long i’m asleep and how much i eat
Teall me when does it end
Oil wars and global warming lies
How can you stand , call yourself a man
And hide behinde your disguise
PRE:
Trapped in ninth ward in new Orleans
Jamaica to Jamaica Queens,
The system try to supress but we
Never give up the fight
HOOK:
We fight for our freedom
What do we have to sacrifice
They call themself a patriot
Oh they call them self a patriot
How much for our freedom?
Why do we have to pay a price?
They call themself a patriot
Oh they call them self a patriot
POST:
Its a jungle out there
But we wont give up, dont give up
It’s a jungle out there
We have to fight for our rights now give it up
Its a jungle out there
But we wont give up dont give up
Its a jungle out there…
VII:
We can be anything
Thats what they said when we were young
How come so many people grow up surprised at what they’ve become
Don’t let your fire fade
Your spirit and your mind are your sharpest weapons
Keep the faith, Together we rise
Above all tribulations

HOLD YOUR PRECIOUS
Baby girl, you hold the key
The key to the door to your body
Theres no rush to give it up
Hes soft to the touch
But If you open it up for him you never can close it again
And if he’s worthy enough you’ll know for he will feel more like a friend
So keep One eye open
Know just what you’re holding
With a body like yours
You gone meet so many predators
just keep one eye open
I know you’re Hopin
That your true love
Is standing in the room
Right in front of you
Oh don’t let it go tonight
You’ve already won him over
You gonna know when it is right
Wo
Oh keep your control don’t let it go tonight
You’ve already won him over
You gotta hold your precious
Baby girl
Hes holding you right
Hes wining and pressing in tight
I know it feels so good to you
so bad what you wanna do
but I know you cant look ahead and see
his true colors
That’s why you
Makin him wait instead Before you are lovers
So keep One eye open
Know just what you’re holding
With a body like yours
You gone meet so many predators
just keep one eye open
I know you’re Hopin
But if he s true
He’ll stand the test of time
And be there down the line
CHORUS
Bridge:
You don’t have to ignore your every wish desire want and need just keep one eye open
Love is a secret garden
Give it time to bloom
Right in front of you

Party girls don't get hurt
Can’t feel anything, when will I learn
I push it down, push it down
I'm the one "for a good time call"
Phone’s blowin' up, ringin' my doorbell
I feel the love, feel the love
[Pre-Chorus]
1 2 3, 1 2 3, drink
1 2 3, 1 2 3, drink
1 2 3, 1 2 3, drink
Throw 'em back till I lose count
[Chorus]
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier
From the chandelier
I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist
Like it doesn't exist
I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night
Feel my tears as they dry
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier
From the chandelier
[Post-Chorus]
But I'm holding on for dear life
Won't look down, won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light
Cause I'm just holding on for tonight
Help me, I'm holding on for dear life
Won't look down, won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light
Cause I'm just holding on for tonight
On for tonight
[Verse 2]
Sun is up, I'm a mess
Gotta get out now, gotta run from this
Here comes the shame, here comes the shame
[Pre-Chorus]
1 2 3, 1 2 3, drink
1 2 3, 1 2 3, drink
1 2 3, 1 2 3, drink
Throw 'em back till I lose count
[Chorus]
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier
From the chandelier
I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist
Like it doesn't exist
I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night
Feel my tears as they dry
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier
From the chandelier
[Post-Chorus]
But I'm holding on for dear life
Won't look down, won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light
Cause I'm just holding on for tonight
Help me, I'm holding on for dear life
Won't look down, won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light
Cause I'm just holding on for tonight
On for tonight
[Outro]
On for tonight
Yeah I'm just holding on for tonight
Oh, I'm just holding on for tonight
On for tonight, on for tonight
Yeah I'm just holding on for tonight
I'm just holding on for tonight
Oh, I'm just holding on for tonight
On for tonight, on for tonight

Sunshine
04:25

Mama,
I’m in love with a man who has taken the life of another
Hes just a brother tryin to make it in the world given half the chance
so he’s twice the hustler
Sure on the surface he’s a criminal but I know that underneath it all
there’s so much to uncover
Cause when I look into his eyes all I see is frightened child
In need of a mother
Chorus:
I wanna be your sunshine let me be your light
I wanna be your sunshine let me be your light
I know your gunshotta clap each and every night,
I wanna be your sunshine let me be your light
I know your gunshotta clap gunshotta clap -each and every night
I wanna be your sunshine let me be your light
VII:
Mama I’ve laid with a man
Who would strike me whilst he was sleeping
He had a war zone in his head but he was lying in me bed
He didn’t know he was dreaming
See karma hunts with cunning skill
You cannot dream you can tame its will
When it comes to find you
Oh, and when I look into his eyes
I can see he is paralyzed
And unable to break through
I need to be his sunshine
Let me be the sunshine in your life
I can take you to light
Let me be the the sunshine in your life
BRIDGE
I can see the beauty in his heart
Maybe no one loved enough right from the start
His head is a war zone and he is trapped inside
Mama won’t you let me show him to the light

VI:
I went to look for you last night
~Somehow it keeps coming back this fever
I think I do it all the time
~An aching pain I need release from
Aching from what we used to be
~It’s like something is missing constantly
What is this feeling?
~What is this feeling?
PRE:
You’re just floating there
Like a memory from my past
You’re just floating there
But you’re never really coming back
So like a ghost… me keep teasing me haunting me
Plaguing my mind make me think you still wantin me
Deep down you’re still the reason I always go
I wanna meet you under those
HOOK:
Street lights
Remember where we used to meet
Under the dark of night
Stealing kisses secretly
Wonder if we woud kiss in the same way we did if we ever met again
Under those street lights
Those street lights
VII:
~We’re not in high school anymore
Sometimes I miss having rules to break
~We used to sneak out the back door
We learned so much when we made mistakes
~Even though I feel like I’m where I belong
You still occupy my mind when I’m all alone
What is this feeling?
~What is this feeling?
What is this feeling?
~What is this feeling?
PRE:
You’re just floating there
You refuse to disappear
You’re just floating there
So far but yet so near
So like a ghost… me keep teasing me haunting me
Plaguing my mind make me think you wantin me
Deep down you’re still the reason I still gfhm go
I wanna meet you under those
BRIDGE:
So when the sun goes down the moon comes out
Pullin at my soul and I creep out the door
I just wanna believe hoping to see
You standing on the corner waitin under those

By Your Side

You think I'd leave your side baby
You know me better than that
You think I'd leave you down
When you're down on your knees
I wouldn't do that
I'll tell you you're right when you want
And if only you could see into me
[Chorus]
Oh when you're cold
I'll be there
Hold you tight to me
[Verse 2]
When you're on the outside baby
And you can't get in
I will show you
You're so much better than you know
When you're lost and you're alone
And you can't get back again
I will find you
Darling and I will bring you home
And if you want to cry
I am here to dry your eyes
And in no time, you'll be fine
[Verse 1]
You think I'd leave your side baby
You know me better than that
You think I'd leave you down
When you're down on your knees
I wouldn't do that
I'll tell you you're right when you're wrong
And if only you could see into me
[Chorus]
Oh when you're cold
I'll be there
Hold you tight to me
Oh when you're low
I'll be there
By your side baby
Oh when you're cold
I'll be there
Hold you tight to me
Oh when you're low
I'll be there
By your side baby
