Dumb

Yo...

You ain't right [x2]

Yo, I know you know you ain't right
Please stop, I know where you was last night
And if you gon' lie, then at least be good
I heard you was in your old hood

I thought we were past these days
No more games, I believe
So now what I hate the most, is you think you're so smart
You think you're foolin' me

[Chorus:]
Oh, you must be
Dumb, dumb, dumb
I ain't
Dumb, dumb
Oh baby, you so
Dumb, dumb, dumb
I ain't
Dumb, dumb
No, no, no

Don't I deserve it all?
You know I take care of you
Whatever you need I'll do
Ungrateful, look how you repay me
Unfaithful, look how you repay
With my heart (Oh...)
You have no regard
I swear
If you keep on doin' me wrong
You'll look up and I'll be gone

I thought we were past these days
No more games, I believe
So now what I hate the most, is you think you're so smart
You think you're foolin' me

[Chorus]

[Meek Mill:]
I say
You know I know I ain't right
But I know you know I ain't wife
No other chick but you shawty
I ain't trippin' off you shawty
Heard I'm in my old hood
But I ain't trip when you party
Love hurts and I feel your pain
Through all the fame, I still remained
The same nigga, I did
Then I came home and I still explained
All this shit you heard about
You gon' let these hoes come steal your lane
Or you gon let it just die on me
Hold it down and come ride for me

Whoa!

Now if my tears don't mean nothing
Don't insult me with lies
And if you won't never change
Please stop wasting my time
Cause if you wanna go out and be single
Go 'head, I told you I won't beg
Cause I know you gon' miss me
So if you leave, baby you must be

You must be
Dumb, dumb, dumb
I ain't
Dumb, dumb
Oh baby, you so
Dumb, dumb, dumb
I ain't
Dumb, dumb
No, no, no [x2]

Mascara

Yeah my hair, and my ass fake, but so what!
I get my rent payed with it, and my tits get me trips to places I can't pronounce right
He said he'd keep it coming, if I keep my body tight

And them bitches stay mad 'cause I'm living the life
'Cause I'm living the life, oh
Most people think I'm shallow
'Cause I'm always dressed like I'm going out to the club,
But I gotta keep up 'cause there's new chicks poppin' up every day
And they want the same things

So I never leave the house without make-up on,
I keep mascara in my pocket if I'm running to the market
'Cause you never know who's watching you
So I got to stay on, I got to stay on
I got to stay on, I got to stay on
Said I got to stay on!

No, I ain't got a job but, so what!
I don't need it when I'm getting everything that I want, and everything that I ask for
I wear that freakum dress for daddy then he give me more

And them bitches stay mad 'cause they working so hard
While I'm working so smart, oh
It's a small price to pay when you're
living this good and he keep me in the hills,
and he kept me out the hood
'Cause there's new chicks poppin' up
every day and they want the same things

So I never leave the house without make-up on,
I keep mascara in my pocket if I'm running to the market
'Cause you never know who's watching you
So I got to stay on, I got to stay on
I got to stay on, I got to stay on
Said I got to stay on!

Now, I know why you're looking at me like that
It ain't attractive when you're looking at me like that,
Girl, don't be mad 'cause while you're
cooking dinner for your broke nigga
You could be in the gym working
on your figure like me. So...

Don't I deserve to be privileged?
Don't I deserve to get the very best?
'Cause it ain't easy being this fine all the time,
'Cause if it was, then we all could do it
But we can't now no
So bitch don't kill my vibe, don't be
mad cause you coach class and I'm in that G5.
Beautiful girls run the whole world,
So I got to stay on!

So I never leave the house without make-up on,
I keep mascara in my pocket if I'm running to the market
'Cause you never know who's watching you
So I got to stay on, I got to stay on
I got to stay on, I got to stay on
Said I got to stay on!

Oh...
Yeah, she drive the dope boys crazy
She knows, that all them hoes so jealous
'Cause that ass, will make a man leave home, uh
That's why she keeps her mascara on.

Brand New

If I had a dime for every nigga with a rap dream
And all the girls that be riding working two jobs
But her boy stays at home making mixtapes
With a "Don't Disturb" on the doorknob
Then I buy a cheap dress every Friday
Cause I go to every show on the weekend
And I gotta look good when I'm reppin' him
He say he about to sign a deal, he about to blow
And gotta move to Atlanta, we about to go
I finally see the light and I'm glad I stayed
But the label said he should be single
Wait, what he saying?

Well baby f*ck you and then the new crew that you're rollin' with
They don't know you like I do
I swear when niggas start making money, they start acting funny
There's no love when they come up
They get it brand new
They get it brand new

This one's for
All the baby mamas and the down ass chicks
Remember y'all used to take bathroom pics, In the crib
And he said if he ever got rich, we out this bitch
Believe that shit
But now you're living good while I'm sitting
Oh he's probably messing with them hoes, I know
That's so brand new

And my bitches calling me like "Hey
Ain't that your nigga with Ye, ain't that your nigga with Jay?"
God damn I'm so embarrassed
But I ain't gon' call 'em, cause I've been drinking
But I'm getting madder cause this liquor got me thinking
Now I'm dialling your phone
Cause we both know that I deserve the throne
(I'm sorry, this number has been disconnected)
This young thing, who is this?
Who is lovin' you?

Well baby f*ck you and then the new crew that you're rollin' with
They don't know you like I do
I swear when niggas start making money, they start acting funny
There's no love when they come up
They get it brand new
They get it brand new

This one's for
All the baby mamas and the down ass chicks
Remember y'all used to take bathroom pics, In the crib
And he said if he ever got rich, we out this bitch
Believe that shit
But now you're living good while I'm sitting
Oh he's probably messing with them hoes, I know
That's so brand new

Never thought that you would act so brand new
While you're living good, what about me too?

Silver Lining

I may not have a reason to think so
I know, but today I think I'm gone win the lottery
Or maybe when I finally get home
That job I need they gone call to hire me
So if I'm looking up don't mind me
But I can't be, (I just can't be) I can't be down no more
And if you don't know where to find me

I'm out looking
I'm looking for the silver lining
The silver lining, and I don't know where
But I'm hoping I'll find it
I'm looking for the silver lining

Everybody's looking at me like I'm crazy
And I am maybe, but my bed is changing right now
Hands up cause motherf*cker this is a stick up
But don't be scared cause listen I ain't come to hurt nobody
I just want all your money in your wallet out your pocket

So if I'm looking up don't mind me
But I can't be, (I just can't be) I can't be down no more
And if you don't know where to find me
I'm out looking
I'm looking for the silver lining
The silver lining, and I don't know where
But I'm hoping I'll find it
I'm looking for the silver lining

Listen I'm a good citizen, I'm not a criminal
But I ain't holding up off of the minimum
I got kids that I gotta support
But doing this was my last resort
But you can't be me when you've got mouths to feed
When you've got bills to pay and rent is late
I bet you'd do what you have to

Let It Burn

I wanna be good to you baby, ooh
(Call me crazy but I think I found the love of my life, that's right)
How you ever felt warm on a cold, cold night?
That's how it get you when you least expect it, and you can't reject it
That crazy little tingling feeling pain in your chest yes

You feel that fire, just let it burn
There's no runnin' beneath your turn
(Call me crazy but I think I found the love of my life)
Just let it burn
Let it, let it burn
Just let it burn
Let it, let it burn
(Call me crazy but I think I found the love of my life)

Feel it crippling your heart
Ooh baby can you feel it tearing you apart?
That's right that's love
When it comes, you never wanna give it up
And baby, I'm caught in the light and I ain't gonna fight it
There's no use in tryin', I'm yours
And I want you to want me the way that I would you and more
(So if you ready to take this ride
We could go all around the world baby
Shit, we could even go to the stars if you like)
I know it's scary
Cause someone always gets hurt when you're caring
And I felt that way too
But ready or not, it's coming for you

You feel that fire, just let it burn
There's no runnin' beneath your turn
(Call me crazy but I think I found the love of my life)
Just let it burn
Let it, let it burn
Just let it burn
Let it, let it burn
(Call me crazy but I think I found the love of my life)

You can't get away from love
Come on yours and get you some
Watch what It'll make you do
Knock the cool right outta you (that's love)

You feel that fire, just let it burn
There's no runnin' beneath your turn
(Call me crazy but I think I found the love of my life)
Just let it burn
Let it, let it burn
Just let it burn
Let it, let it burn
(Call me crazy but I think I found the love of my life)

Veins

When did you realize that addiction was your life?
The first time I pushed it through my veins.
The hug it gave me, I never experienced in my life. It wouldn't let me go

Writings on the wall but I can't see the words
It's, right in front of me but my vision is blurred
And, Is this love that makes the clear eye blurred?
Is this love that has me losing my mind

When he calls your name and you just gotta have it
Love me all the wrong ways, my bad habit
Hold me close, while you take me away

(I just wanna scream your name)
Oooh I like that
Oooh t-t-tap that
I'm a call you daddy
(You make me go insane)
Oooh do me right
Do me all night
Cause you give me life
Runnin' through my veins
Runnin' through my veins

Now I can't live without him cause he's all that I breathe
I don't hang out much cause he's all that I need
This crazy intoxicating kind of feel
One day might be the death of me, oh

When he calls your name and you just gotta have it
Love me all the wrong ways, my bad habit
Hold me close, while you take me away

(I just wanna scream your name)
Oooh I like that
Oooh t-t-tap that
I'm a call you daddy
(You make me go insane)
Oooh do me right
Do me all night
Cause you give me life
Runnin' through my veins
Runnin' through my veins

Hit it once, feels so good, hurt so bad, had enough
Pull me back, tear me out, f*ck me up
I never know, at least we go together babe
(Just stay with me and It'll only love [?])
Forget about your worries, live it out like we're young
Cause life's too short not to have fun
You be holding it down
Knock a couple more rounds
That feel good pain while you're running through my, my

When he calls your name and you just gotta have it
Love me all the wrong ways, my bad habit
Hold me close, while you take me away

(I just wanna scream your name)
Oooh I like that
Oooh t-t-tap that
I'm a call you daddy
(You make me go insane)
Oooh do me right
Do me all night
Cause you give me life
Runnin' through my veins
Runnin' through my veins

Forever Don't Last

I had high hopes for us, baby
Like I was on dope for us, baby
Chasin' after a high that I'd never get back again
So we turn into three long years
And it became painfully clear that we,
We would never see those days again

But I guess forever, doesn't last too long forever
Doesn't last too long forever
Doesn't last too long these days, hey
And I tried to believe that we could make it
But trying don't work, so I just have to face that forever
Doesn't last too long these days, hey

Still think about the good times we had
And how you used to make me laugh
But, baby, I know most times we were miserable
So every time I wanna call, baby, what always helps
Is when I think of the pain, and I realize
I'm better off by myself

'Cause forever, doesn't last too long forever
Doesn't last too long forever
Doesn't last too long these days, hey
And I tried to believe that we could make it
But trying don't work, so I just have to face that forever
Doesn't last too long these days, hey

Lord knows I gave it my all and
I couldn't save us from falling
'Cause some people ain't meant to be together forever forever

'Cause forever, doesn't last too long forever
Doesn't last too long forever
Doesn't last too long these days, hey
And I tried to believe that we could make it
But trying don't work, so I just have to face that forever
Doesn't last too long forever these days, hey

Stupid Girl

I'm a fool
And he loves it
He knows he's got me wrapped around his fingers with a glance
I do whatever he says
If he wants it
He gives a smile that snaps my little heart into a trance

Boys have toys too
You know they do
They call us stupid girls
They call us stu-u-u-u-pid girls
And when you love 'em like I do
You'll be a fool
You'll be a stupid girl
You'll be a stu-u-u-u-pid girl

Men roam the world
Looking for us
Someone they can f*ck around with
Make us really trust them
And we never have a clue
We never see it comin'
Trainwreck headed for us
But we never think of runnin'
So which one are you
Because I know who I am
And you have to choose
To use your head or be a stupid girl
What will it be
Don't wanna end up like me-e-e-e
So use your head don't be a stupid gi-i-I-rl

You know they do
They call us stupid girls
They call us stu-u-u-u-pid girls
And when you love 'em like I do
You'll be a fool
You'll be a stupid girl
You'll be a stu-u-u-u-pid girl

Better learn from my mistakes
Because it isn't too late
For you to get up and run
Please just don't be dumb
Cause you have a choice
T-to run after the boys
Or take over the world
Don't be a stupid gi-i-i-irl

They call us stu-u-u-u-pid girls
And when you love 'em like I do
You'll be a fool
You'll be a stupid girl
You'll be a stu-u-u-u-pid girl

Boys have toys too
You know they do
They call us stupid girls
They call us stu-u-u-u-pid girls
And when you love 'em like I do
You'll be a fool
You'll be a stupid girl
You'll be a stu-u-u-u-pid girl

Stanley

I'm in the kitchen making the dinner that I know you like
And I've been cleaning this damn house all day and all night
But you don't pay me no attention Stanley
I'm needing your attention baby
Just show me some appreciation
Or maybe take a bitch to dinner

Sometimes you make me feel special, Stanley
I really shouldn't have to tell you baby
This isn't how you treat a lady
Don't you know you got a winner?
I don't know why I waste my time
When you don't care how hard I try to make you smile
(If you ain't careful) You gone lose a good thing
You gone lose a thing

I try to dress up and look like something just to turn you on
I'm spending money I don't got because you used to like my hair red my nails done
But you don't pay me no attention Stanley
I'm needing your attention baby
Just show me some appreciation
Or maybe take a bitch to dinner

Sometimes you make me feel special, Stanley
I really shouldn't have to tell you baby
This isn't how you treat a lady
Don't you know you got a winner?
I don't know why I waste my time
When you don't care how hard I try to make you smile
(If you ain't careful) You gone lose a good thing
You gone lose a thing

I try so hard to be good to you, Stanley
But why don't you care and you take me for granted?
You know I love you but I'm getting tired
You might get burned cause you're playing with fire (Fire)
All you do is go to the bar
Worrying 'bout that rusty car
Mess around you're gonna lose my heart
And another man is gonna do your part

Masterpiece (Mona Lisa)

My eyes ain't used to these rays
I'm feeling exposed, but I hide no more
I can't hide
As the sun shines on all of my glory
My flaws don't look so bad at all
What was I so afraid of?

Every part of me is a vision of a portrait
Of Mona, of Mona Lisa
Every part of me is beautiful
And I finally see I'm a work of art
A masterpiece

Who is this I've tried so long fight?
Filling my heads with lies that I'm not good enough
Then I heard something in my ear
Tell I'm perfect, now that I know the truth
Time to show and prove

Every part of me is a vision of a portrait
Of Mona, of Mona Lisa
Every part of me is beautiful
And I finally see I'm a work of art
A masterpiece

And now I see the pretty colors on my canvas
I'm a work of art, a Mona Lisa
I'll share my picture with the world
Not afraid to let it show anymore

I can light the night, shine so bright
(Let my colors paint the sky)
I can light the night, shine so bright
(There is beauty in my eyes)
I can light the night, shine so bright
(And I can see it now, I believe it now, I can feel it now)
I can light the night, shine so bright
(Want the world to see, I'm a work of art. I'm a masterpiece)
I can light the night, shine so bright
(I am beautiful)

Every part of me is a vision of a portrait
Of Mona, of Mona Lisa
Every part of me is beautiful
And I finally see I'm a work of art
A masterpiece

If You Dare

Why you only see in black and white
You should be living in color
You walking now when you were made to fly
Don't be scared to fly
Stop thinking small when you're larger than life

You're amazing, so am I
Let's dress up fancy and drink wine
Let's go crazy, don; 't be scared
Cause we can conquor the world, we can conquor the world
If you dare

You could be living it right
You should be living it high
You should be living it
You could be living it right
You should be living it high
You should be living it

Oh Caroline stay away from the light
Cause people never make it out alive
So come on down because you're going too high
(But she heard)
Don't be scared, start living your life

You could be living it right
You should be living it high
You should be living it
And I warned you not to go
Did you have to leave me low
You could be living it right
You should be living it high
You should be living it
And it's driving you insane
But it's running through your veins
You could be living it right
You should be living it high
You should be living it
