3.U Should've Known
Verse 1：
I didn't ask to go with you to Mexico
I really didn't need the shopping sprees in L.A. or Melrose
Boy if you didn't know it, well now you know
I didn't need the furs or the jewelry
Because material things they don't mean much to me
And ever since you've been gone
I've been holding us down on my own
You know

I'm never ever cheating
I never ever lied
So you can stop asking
Asking me why
Why I never left you
And why I've kept it real
And why I'm still with you
Refrain：
You should've known better than to think I would leave
You should've known better than to doubt me
It don't matter if you're up, matter if you're down
Either way I'm gonna be around
You should've known that I would stay by your side
You should've known your girl was gonna ride or die
And it just don't matter if you're rich or poor
Out here doing five to ten
You should've known better
Verse 2：
What makes you think that I would forget about you
Think about it, who comes to see you
Every Saturday and Monday I was on, on
It's me your girl, your life, your world
My family and friends, they just don't understand
They say I should leave you alone
But I say that they should all just leave us alone
Don't you get it？
Chorus：
I'm never ever cheating
I never ever lied
So you can stop asking
Asking me why
Why I never left you
And why I've kept it real
And why I'm still with you
Refrain：
You should've known better than to think I would leave
You should've known better than to doubt me
It don't matter if you're up, matter if you're down
Either way I'm gonna be around

You should've known your girl was gonna ride or die
And it just don't matter if you're rich or poor
Out here doing five to ten
You should've known better

Out here doing five to ten
You should've known better
4.Too Hood
JD：I don't think y'all can handle this
I don't really think Y'all can handle this
Mo,I don't think they can handle this
I don't really think they can handle this
＊I'm too hood for you
I ain't trying to act too good for you
I'm just trying to tell you what's real and true
Baby,I don't think you can handle this(I'm too)
I'm too hood for you
Tell me what you know about
Crime don't crow about
Hair braided up with the gold in your mouth
Nothing,nothing(I'm too)＊
I don't wanna pull your card
Play you out,call you soft
But the line you just kicked to me
It won't get you nowhere with me
I can see that you are not
The kind of guy that I like
Me and you could never be
You're too nice and just too pretty and...
(Repeat＊)
It's not your fault I'm from the hood
I love' em bad and hate' em good
To keep it real with you honestly
That's the only type of figure that can handle me
All tidied it up or faded up
A player that don't give a what
I'm the only one he gets inside
When he does it's ride or die
That's why I'm...
(Repeat ＊)
I try not to let it show
Something said,Mo,let it go
And let yourself be free
'Cause I can take myself out of the hood
But I can't take the hood out of me
I'm a gangsta,got diamonds in my teeth
So ghetto,yeah,just one of these
I gotta have the heart to play the part
And talk the talk to walk these streets
I'm too hood
JD：Call it what you like
Sometimes I like to fight
Get fly,get high
Party all night
Keep at lease five grand
In my pocket in a rubber band
Only rock it if it's name brand
You know
Prada,Gucci,Polo whatever
The car
Gotta have in wood grain and leather
The shoes
They gotta be twenties or better
I don't care if you're in a Benz or a Jetter
Ladies with tattoos
About three or four
Of somebody's name
You don't even see no more
And you gotta have the flings
Some rings or a neckpiece
Bracelet or studs in your eat at lease
Fellows with more than two BM's
That's too hood
Girls that dress like Lil' Kim
That's too hood
Can talk without cursing gold teeth
And Mel K,oh,that's me
I'm just too hood
(Repeat＊ 3 times with ad lib)
5.I Wrote This Song
I can't believe you're gone
Why'd you leave
Sometimes they hurt so bad
Verse 1：
He's the kind of guy
that runs the streets
But he treats me good
and he makes his dough illegally
That's how he's taking care of me
and I respect the fact that
He's chosen that life
but it keeps me up late at night
And I just can't spend my time
wondering where he's at, is he okay？
I wanna be by his side
but I commit a crime
I need to exclaim
I don't wanna live that way
Chorus：
I love my baby so
But he's not here no more
Often need to understand
So I wrote him this song
Could not get him ？？？
Knew I couldn't change his mind
So I wrote this melody
And I'm singing sweet goodbye
Verse 2：
Though he promised that he would never put me in harm's way
That's something that he can't control
Cause the game remains the same
Now he says he wants out of here
But he's in too deep
And the only way that he will go is killing him or leaving me
So this is where I'm at and it hurts so bad
That I had to choose if I wanna live, or die with you
Chorus：
I love my baby so
But he's not here no more
Often need to understand
So I wrote him this song
Could not get him ？？？
Knew I couldn't change his mind
So I wrote this melody
And I'm singing sweet goodbye
Bridge：
I tried to give him hope
And promised him my life
But I don't know what made him want to leave this life
And as he went away
The tears fell from my eyes
And there's no turning back
There's only goodbye
Chorus：
I love my baby so
But he's not here no more
Often need to understand
So I wrote him this song
Could not get him ？？？
Knew I couldn't change his mind
So I wrote this melody
And I'm singing sweet goodbye
I love my baby so
But he's not here no more
Often need to understand
So I wrote him this song
Could not get him ？？？
Knew I couldn't change his mind
So I wrote this melody
And I'm singing sweet goodbye
I love you so
I need you so
It's hard to imagine
My life here without you
I love you so
I need you so
It's hard to imagine
My life here without you
Without you
Without you

Peep the whole scene and whatever's goin' on around me
Burned out, clutchin' my pillow, stuck in the County

Hey, yeah...
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey, yeah
Oh...oh...oh...oh...
Oh, yeah
Oh...oh...
When I think of what I've done all the pain that I've brought
Baby, you should have walked out on me
And when I've turned away from you whenever there were hard
times
How could you still be with me
And if it was no mistake when I hurt you that day
And went out with somebody new
But still you forgave me like it was so easy
I should have been mad at you
Baby, it breaks my heart
To think that lovin' me is not so easy to do
And I don't mean to make it hard
Sorry for all the changes I put you through
And it's hard to believe after everything
That you're still here right beside me
Wouldn't trade you for this whole world
Thankful just bein' your girl
Never gave you my heart 'cause I never thought
You deserved any of me
I never told you how I felt when deep inside I knew that
You're really what I need
And I always gave you up whenever I saw
Something better come along
And right when I come back you're waitin' for me
And you welcome me home
Baby, it breaks my heart
To think that lovin' me is not so easy to do
And I don't mean to make it hard
Sorry for all the changes I put you through
And it's hard to believe after everything
You're still here right beside me
Wouldn't trade you for this whole world
Thankful just bein' your girl
And if it takes my whole life I'll make it up to you
'Cause I've been so cruel
And you've given your love to me in spite of everything
I-I don't deserve you
From this day forward I'm truly yours
But it took me a while to see
That we were meant for one another
Thank you for loving me
Baby, it breaks my heart
To think that lovin' me is not so easy to do
And I don't mean to make it hard
Sorry for all the changes I put you through
And it's hard to believe after everything
You're still here right beside me
Wouldn't trade you for this whole world
Thankful just bein' your girl
Baby, it breaks my heart
To think that lovin' me is not so easy to do
And I don't mean to make it hard
Sorry for all the changes I put you through
And it's hard to believe after everything
You're still here right beside me
Wouldn't trade you for this whole world
Thankful just bein' your girl

I must admit that I go crazy for you
And I can see it in your eyes
That there's somethin' you want to say to me
'Cause usually right now
You'll be holdin' on to me
But instead you tell me
Things have changed, they're not the same
And recently you found someone that you
Decided to dedicate your whole life to
And what we had is 'bout to be through
And baby, what hurts the most is letting go
I just want you to know that I love you so
I know things are different now, you've gone and settled down
And I thought for sure you'd always wait me
I'll tell you what hurts the most is I should have took the
chance
Boy, when you came to me and offered me your hand
Silly of me I thought I'll always have your heart
I had the chance to have all the love oh, how I'm missing now
I hate that there is someone new
Comin' in and takin' my place
Doin' the things that we used to do
And makin' love to you
And oh, what am I supposed to do
It's killin' me 'cause I want you
And you should have known my love was true
And there's no one else in this world for me but you
But things have changed, they're not the same
And recently you found someone that you
Decided to dedicate your whole life to
And what we had is 'bout to be through
And baby, what hurts the most is letting go
I just want you to know that I love you so
You know things are different now, you're gonna settle down

Don't you love her like you really need me
Don't you love her like you used to love me
And baby, what hurts the most is letting go

11.Searchin'
When I hear the children of today
They're questioning me the way
The way that they should live
I often wonder
Wonder what to do
To help them make it through
And the world's going straight
Open my heart to see
That is time with me
Searchin' for the answers to these problems
I'm always facing things that are tryin' me
Testing all the things that I believe
Sometimes I feel so down
And no one here's around
But you, you never left me lonely
And now I see what a true friend means
And I trust that you would always be here for me
Lord I give you all
Open my heart to see
That is time with me
Searchin' for the answers to these problems
I'm always facing things that are tryin' me
Testing all the things that I believe
Now I'm here before you
So tell me what to do
(Guess I'll do open my heart)
My heart to you
Here I am
Searching for all the answers to my problems
Lord I'm facing things
Can you help me
You're trying all that I need
The things I belive
Lord, no no no no
Here I am
Here I am
I'm searching for searching for it
Lord I need, need, need

Testing all the things that I believe

Can't you help me
I'm lagging understanding
I'm your child no matter what they say

Protect me every day
Protect me oh oh..
12.Just Another Girl
You think your slick in every way changing up on your calls on
your phone everyday
Is there something that you're trying to hide from me？
I never gave you reason to
Run and take your calls in the other room.
Am I the only one or is somebody else kissing at you？
Is this my imagination？
Things ain't always what they seem.
Cause I don't want to be.
Just another face in the crowd and it's got me shook.
I've got to mean a little more to you
Than a space in your list of things to do.
Another g-shock gun in your Benz.
Another dumb bitch that you can show all your friends.
You can call me crazy, say I'm insecure.
But I don't wanna be just another girl.
ooooh ohhhh ohhh mmm hhmmm
Strange how you claim to tell all the truth.
When the passenger seat in your car has been moved
And you swore that there was no one else but you.
And so now you can't explain why'd you called me by somebody
else's name.
You say it's history, player, thing's are through or so you say.
Is this my imagination？
Things ain't always what they seem cause I don't want to be
Tell me, how you lie and reason my suspicious mind.
I've gotta know the truth if I'm just another girl you treated
wrong.
Not the one you string along
Is it you and me, is it two or three？
Cause I don't want to be
