Thunder

Thunder all through the night
Promise 2 see Jesus in the morning light
Take my hand, it'll be alright
Come on, save your soul 2night
Thunder!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah {x2}
Love - nobody know just how it was born
Love first came 2 me with the radio on
Jumped up in my body with an attitude
Kissed me on the mouth and said, "Your leader take me 2"
CHORUS:
'Twas like thunder all through the night
And the promise 2 see Jesus in the morning light
Love said - "Take my hand, it'll be alright
Come on, save your soul 2night"
Love's kiss was running all through my veins
The bed started shakin', I don't know who 2 blame
Me or this flower right in front of my eyes
Is this my sweet savior or the devil in disguise?
CHORUS
(Oh, all through)
Thunder! (Yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Alright)
(It was truly, truly…)
Like rain falling on a window pane
Tears came 2 my eyes when I asked her name
Made me holler when it finally came
Sayin' - "Only the children born out of me will remain"
CHORUS
(Oh)
(Mornin' light)
Thunder!
We'll be alright (Alright)
(It was truly like thunder)
Don't do it like that, do it like this
Thunder {repeat}
(It was truly, truly like…)
Thunder all through the night (Thunder, thunder - yeah, yeah, yeah)
Promise 2 see Jesus in the morning light (We'll be alright)
Take my hand, it'll be alright (It's gonna be alright)
Come on, save your soul 2night
Thunder! (Thunder, thunder – yeah, yeah, yeah)
Thunder {repeat till end}

See the man with the blue guitar
Maybe one day he'll be a star

Like a child lost in the wilderness
Till I reach my destination, I won't rest
Cuz I'm willin' (Willin') and I'm able (Able)
I'm ready 2 place my cards on the table (Table)
There's some kings in my deck and a queen or 2
So U know there ain't nothin', nothin' that I wouldn't do
(Nothin' that I won't do)
It 'twas a long time comin', but now that it's here
All the non-believers better fear me
Cuz I'm willin (Willin' and able) and I'm able
I got a good and plenty cards 2 place on the table (Table)
I been holdin' back this feeling 4 far 2 long
(Holdin' back this feeling 4 far 2 long)

A piece of your love 2night
Well hello, M.C. T on a mello
Swing low 2 the tempo as I flow on a roll
Here we go, willing and able start the show right
With that type of hype
I lay my cards on the table 2night
Don't take me light
My flow hits U just like a lead pipe
While I'm clockin'
U just ain't fussin' about the boots I'm knockin'
It ain't like that
Besides, I keep the Jimmy so get off my back
In fact U lack the knack
Step back before I show U how a fool acts, baby
Yeah

Gett Off

Club Mix {x2}
How can I put this in a way so as not 2 offend or unnerve?
But there's a rumor goin' all around that U ain't been gettin' served
They say that U ain't "U know what" in, baby, who knows how long
It's hard 4 me 2 say what's right when all I wanna do is wrong CHORUS:
Gett off – 23 positions in a one night stand
Gett off – I'll only call U after if U say I can
Gett off – Let a woman be a woman and a man be a man
Gett off – If U want 2, baby, here I am (Here I am)
I clocked the jizz from a friend of yours named Vanessa Bet (Bet)
She said U told her a fantasy that got her all wet (Wet)
Something about a little box with a mirror and a tongue inside (Yeah)
What she told me then got me so hot, I knew that we could slide (Ooh)
CHORUS
Gett off {repeat in BG}
1 2 3
Naw, little cutie, I ain't drinkin'
But scope this, I was just thinkin'
U + me, what a ride
If U was thinkin' the same, we could continue outside
Lay your pretty body against a parkin' meter
Strip your dress down like I was strippin' a Peter Paul's Almond Joy
Lemme show U, baby, I'm a talented boy
Everybody grab a body
Pump it like U want somebody
Gett off
So here we, so here we...
So here we are, here we are in my paisley crib
What cha want 2 eat? (Ribs!)
Naw toy, I don't serve ribs
U better be happy that dress is still on
I heard the rip when U sat down
Honey, them hips is gone
But that's alright, I clock 'em that way
Remind me of somethin' James used 2 say
"I like 'em fat, I like 'em proud
U got 2 have a mother 4 me"
Now move your big ass 'round this way
So I can work on that zipper, baby
2night U're a star and I'm the Big Dipper
Na, na, na, na {x2}
(Kick it)
(Gett off) {repeat in BG}
How can I put this in a way so as not 2 offend or unnerve?

Walk Don't Walk

Walk on their side of the street
Don't walk where it feels the best
Walk away from people U meet
Don't talk 2 strangers unless
They walk the way U want them 2
Don't walk unless the others do
I said walk like U could use a ride
Don't walk with a confident stride
Then people will walk over U
But don't talk till they tell U 2
Don't talk if it's against the rules
Just walk away and be a fool
That's what they want cha 2 do
Yeah, that's what they want U 2 do
Sha, na, na, na, na {x4}
Don't talk if it's against the rules
Just walk away and be a fool
That's what they want U 2 do
So U gotta walk like U wanna make it
Don't walk like U just can't take it
G'on walk on whatever side U like
Don't walk wherever they tell U 2 - psyche!
The sun will shine upon U one day
If U're always walkin' your way
Oh, the sun will shine upon U one day
If U're always walkin' your way (Hey)
Sha, na, na, na, na {x4} (Checkin' me now just walkin')
Said I'm walkin' on your side of the street (Checkin' me now just walkin')

Walk - don't walk

Tony, U were excellent
What U need is a manager
4 what?
I can make U...
Moneyminders are like parasites
They pose as wheelers and dealers 4 your rights
And most companies say that U need 'em!
Not me
But I kick back, observed, and watched them bleed 'em
I'm honest
Artists young and old
I can bring U 2 the top!
Where'd this unwritten law come from anyway?
That years after the contract U should still be gettin' paid?
Boy, I'd go broke and hit the skids
Before I take care of a rich sucker's kids
My contract...
Hell, a contract ain't no pension plan
My contract...
Years after this, my kids are still gonna make the grands
Tony, U...
And U laughed at my brother, Little Richard
When he says U ain't gave him nothin'
Let's leave him out of this
Hell, that ain't no joke
His songs are still sellin', that man could die broke
So fellow artists, push 4 yours
U need me
And watch 4 Mr. Moneyminder as we settle the score
Tony...
Ohhhh!

Money Don't Matter 2 Night

One more card and it's 22
Unlucky 4 him again
He never had respect 4 money it's true
That's why he never wins
That's why he never ever has enough 2 treat his lady right
He just pushes her away in a huff
And says – “Money don't matter 2night”
Money don't matter 2night
It sure didn't matter yesterday
Just when U think U've got more than enough
That's when it all up and flies away
That's when U find out that U're better off
Makin' sure your soul's alright
Cuz money didn't matter yesterday
And it sure don't matter 2night
Look, here's a cool investment
They're tellin' him he just can't lose
So he goes out and tries 2 find a partner
But all he finds are users (Users)
All he finds are snakes in every color
Every nationality and size
Seems like the only thing that he can do is just roll his eyes
And say that money don't matter 2night (Don't matter)
It sure didn't matter yesterday
Just when U think U've got more than enough
That's when it all up and flies away (No, no, no, no)
That's when U find out that U're better off
Makin' sure your soul's alright (Soul's alright)
Cuz money didn't matter yesterday (Don't matter)
And it sure don't matter 2night
Ooh-wee-ooh, don't matter
Well it don't matter 2night, no
Hey now, maybe we can find a good reason 2 send a child off 2 war
So what if we're controllin' all the oil
Is it worth a child dying 4? (Is it worth it?)
If long life is what we all live 4 then long life will come 2 pass
Anything is better than the picture of the child in a cloud of gas
And U think U got it bad
Money don't matter 2night (No, don't matter)
It sure didn't matter yesterday (Yesterday, ooh)
Just when U think U've got more than enough
That's when it all up and flies away (Flies away, flies away)
That's when U find out that U're better off
Makin' sure your soul's alright (Make certain that your soul's alright)
Cuz money didn't matter yesterday
It sure don't matter 2night
Money don't matter 2night
It sure didn't matter yesterday (Yesterday, yesterday)
Just when U think U've got more than enough
That's when it all up and flies away (Flies away, flies away)
That's when U find out that U're better off
Makin' sure your soul's alright
Money didn't matter yesterday
And it sure don't matter 2night

Push

Step 1, step off 2 the dance floor {x2}
Push! (Yeah) (Push up on it) (Good God)
Yeah, push, yeah, woo!
(Push it) (Push up on it)
Every time U get some
People wanna take it back
They rather see U on the run
Than see U get it like that
Every time they stop U
A-change up like a sock
Every time they try 2 clock U
Tick more than they tock, ah...
CHORUS:
Push (I push) don't U let them pull U down
Yeah, push (I push ) until U get 2 higher ground
Hey, push - U're never 2 young, U're never 2 old
Yeah push - don't stop until U go
Did U ever stop 2 wonder
Why U put another down?
No man should asunder
The joy that another man found
Maybe U thought the business U was worried
Wasn't ever filed in your name
Maybe the cartridge U was playin'
Don't fit in your video game
CHORUS
Hey alright (I push)
Push (I,I,I...) (Push up on it)
Push (I push)
Push, push, hey, yeah
Push (U wanna push it now, yeah, push)
(Push up on it)
Push, yeah (I push) (Push)
Every time U get some (Push)
People wanna take it back (P-push)
They rather see U on the run (Push)
Than see U get it like that
Everytime (everytime they stop U) U got 2 change up
U change up like a sock (Push)
Every time they try 2 clock U (Push)
Tick more than they tock, ah...

Yeah, I'ma push up on it
Tony, (Yo) get on the mic
Slow down, I'ma push up on it
(Get on the mic) {x2}
I push 4 a beat that is greasy
I'll dis a beat if it teases
Marks this down as I state it
I like my funk concentrated
The pop seems, hmmm, a little overrated
Guess U can tell what was stepped in
Just some grease on the stage
Oops, I just stepped in it
Circling as we vibe the full stride was the ride
On a watered-down tip, we could never get by
Fellas, (G-get on the mic) check it out
Here's what U gotta do
Got 2 step in the room with the mood
Never juicin' yourself, just a competent attitude
So maybe U will get busy, yo' mouth'll drop open (Get on the mic)
As U watch the slimmies walkin'
But U don't want the one who's jockin'
Cuz it's all about the clockin'
Step 1, step off 2 the dance floor
Push up on it, there U go, y'all, yeah (Point, point 2,3) (Push {x3})
(C'mon, push it) Push up on it
(Get on the mic)
{Push is repeated }
Prince, get on the mic {x3}
(Get on it, get, get, get on it) (Push up on it)
U don't want me on the mic
Prince, get on it, get, get, get on it
Naw man, U don't want me on the mic
(Don't stop it)
Yeah, yeah, oh yeah!
It's Thunder when I'm on the mic (I push)
Daddy Pop's in the house
And U're sure 2 like his Diamonds
Sure 2 like his Pearls (I push)
I'm good 2 Cream every boy and girl
Cuz I'm Strollin', steady, hip-hop, rock and rollin'
A Willing And Able Horny Pony
And I'm pumpin' 'em, I'm pumpin' 'em
I'm pump-pump-pump-pump-pumpin' 'em
From Pakistan 2 Poland straight into yo' town (Get on the mic) {x2}
Snatchin' up kiddies like a circus clown (Get on the mic) (Get on the microphone)
Hahahaha...
Well, all U people out there, U better beware
Cuz they call me Rosie G. and I just don't care
I like 2 step, all night long
A rapper here, rappin' there, pushin' his song
The song gets hotter and it sets U on fire (Get on the mic)
Like the lightening in the Bible it takes U all higher
My momma said, "Girl, U know it ain't cool, said U don't want 2 play by nobody's rules"
I said, "Momma, chill out, and give me a break
Cuz I know I got just what it takes"
I said, "Momma , don't put me under pressure. (get on, get on...get on the mic)
I love U and I think U're fresher"
Push
Everybody, here we go, c'mon now push if ya wanna
(Push ) (Get on the mic) (Push)
Come on, come on, come on, come, p-p-push it
Push (Yeah, push it) {x2}

Insatiable

Ooh, oooh, my, my, yeah U ooh...

No one that I've ever, knows how 2 handle
My body, the way U truly do
Insatiable's my name when it comes 2 U
I got a jones, Martha
Oh yeah, it be like this
I can't have a hug unless I have a kiss, ooh (I can't have a hug unless...)
My body, baby, U truly do
Insatiable's my name when it comes 2 U
Like a wildcat, Martha, in a celibate rage
I want U alone in my dirty little cage
Can U understand, Martha?
Ooh, my body baby, U truly do
Insatiable's my name when it comes 2 U

(She's insatiable) (Insatiable) {repeated}
I can't help what U do 2 me (Ooh)
U are my every fantasy
CHORUS:
There's no tellin' how far I'd go
Cuz when it comes 2 U, I know
I'm insatiable and I just can't stop
Even if I wasn't thirsty, I would drink every drop
Please baby, don't say no
Cuz I'll surely go - crazy
Okay, so all U do is push the little red button
And I belong 2 U in your little video box
Nah, don't look at the clock, yeah

First, U gotta tell me what U want me 2 do
(My body, baby, U truly do)

So take it slow, baby and let's unwind
Do U really want all my clothes off? (Yes)
What are U gonna do 2 prove it? (Ooh)
Aren't U afraid we're gonna be found out? (No)
Well, let's get on with the show
Ooh, turn the lights down lower
Doesn't my body look good in the shadows?
Ooh, baby knows what 2 do
Have U done this before? (I don't know)
U say U want my hips up in the air (Yeah)
Oh no, I don't care
Ooh, my body baby, U truly do

Up and down
Just like a seesaw (Back and forth)
Back and forth (Listen)
Oh girl, I'm falling

U're nastier than I thought
It's just 2:49

Live 4 Love

Lauch procedure commence {"Barbarella" sample}
Countdown start
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4
Keep goin'
(Acceleration into temporal state continuum now beginning)
30,000 feet and still a-counting (Live 4 love)
The attack on my plane is steadily mounting (Live 4 love)
They killed my buddy, I'm supposed 2 feel nothing (Live 4 love)
How can I live 4 love?
(I'm calling…) Live 4 love, live 4 love
(I'm calling…) Live 4 love
(Calling…) Live 4 love
Kicked outta my home at 17 (Live 4 love) (Get outta here!)
A real family, now what does that mean? (Live 4 love)
Don't nobody know the trouble I've seen (Live 4 love) (Leave me alone!)
How can I live 4 love?
(I'm calling…) Live 4 love, live 4 love
Live 4 love
(Calling, I'm calling…) Live 4 love
(Live 4 love, baby)
My mission, so they said, was just 2 drop the bombs
(Acceleration into temporal state continuum now beginning)
Just like I got no conscience, just like I got no qualms
(Alpha 7, acknowledge)
Now what does that mean?
Say go Tommy go
Go Tommy go {x7}
So here, my target is approaching
The angel on my shoulder starts coaching
"Live 4 Love, without love U don't live"
Boom! I take a deep breath
Is it boom! - life?
Is it boom! - death?
Live 4 love
Maybe I was better off staying in school (Live 4 love)
But everybody said flying planes was cool (Live 4 love)
It's so easy 4 them 2 say cuz they never have 2 go through
How can I live 4 love? (Live 4 love)
(I'm calling…!) Live 4 love
(I'm calling…!) Live 4 love
(Yeah, calling…!) Live 4 love, live 4 love
(Live 4 love!) Live 4 love, live 4 love
Damn! I got hit, but I still complete the mission (Live 4 love)
I flash upon my whole life just-a-steady wishin' (Live 4 love)
The choice U make is vital
So at the end of my recital I say, "U got 2 live 4 love"
Keep goin'
Live 4 love {x8}
Live
Live 4 love, without love U don't live
And how U make it is based on what U're givin' back
In fact only a few of us slip through the cracks
Through generations the cards have always been stacked against us
So love each other, it's a must (Live 4 love)
If we just trust and cut the fuss
Believe me, unity is a must
Listen everybody as I spread the word
Everything is hazy when your vision's blurred
I'm kickin' reality in the streets of the city
There's this mentality what goes around comes around
And gangk any clown who ain't down with the colors that U're sportin' 'round
Listen G, U are supposed 2 be
Strivin' 2 be the best that U can be
So stop tryin' 2 dominate and push and shove (Live 4 love)
Come on, y'all, we got 2 live 4 love Live 4 love {repeat}
