The One

[Intro:]
Yeah, yeah
On the track
Go

[Verse 1:]
You know very well who you are
You're the only one, you've got my heart
And you've had a few, boy one too many
But I'm the only one to wake you up

(It was all a dream)

[Chorus:]
I reminisced the way we kissed
It felt so personal
You took the chance to get my love and now you know

(It was all a dream)

That I don't need no one baby
With out you I'm incomplete
My love is just like the bar
Put it all on me

I don't want nobody else
Baby all I need is you
(You're the one I want)
And I don't want nobody else
Baby all I need is you
(You're the one I want)

[Verse 2:]
You know very well, you're a star
Cause I don't go that far, look where we are
And ain't none like you, one in a million
But I'm the only one to count you ooooooh

(It was all a dream)

[Chorus:]
I reminisced the way we kissed
It felt so personal
You took the chance to get my love and now you know

(It was all a dream)

That I don't need no one baby (I don't need no one)
With out you I'm incomplete (incomplete)
My love is just like the bar
Put it all on me (put it all on me yeah)

I don't want nobody else
Baby all I need is you
(You're the one I want)
And I don't want nobody else
Baby all I need is you
(You're the one I want)

I reminisced the way we kissed
It felt so personal
You took the chance to get my love and now you know

That I don't need no one baby (no baby)
With out you I'm incomplete (incomplete)
My love is just like the bar (like a bar)
Put it all on me (put it all on me yeah, yeah)
Put it all on me
All on me
Whoooo!

And I don't want my business on 'The Wendy Williams Show')

You sticking to these rules, you know how to play this game)
I've been keeping you around for a reason
And you look good and you give me what I needed
(I like how you come through and I ain't gotta say a thing
You sticking to these rules, you know how to play this game)

Stay And Fight

We could walk away from this mess we made
We could live and learn, set fire to this bridge and watch it burn
We can act like it was not even really love in the first place, no

We could throw out the pictures
And throw our dreams away
We could forget the words we were too afraid to say
And we could live with the mistake, tearing us apart everyday
We could let all the good just fade away

[Chorus]
But I wanna stay and fight for you
Fight until my heart is black and blue
Fight til there's nothing left not one single strand of the love we had
I wanna stay and fight for us
Fight like hell before I give up
'Til I'm the only one, the only one in love
I'd fight for you

We could turn off our feelings
And go about the days, put on the happy face
Tell everyone that we're OK
And we could just say you and me were probably never meant to be
Or we could be nothing more than a memory

[Chorus]
But I wanna stay and fight for you
Fight 'til my heart is black and blue
Fight til there's nothing left not one single strand of the love we had
I wanna stay and fight for us
Fight like hell before I give up
'Til I'm the only one, the only one in love
I'd fight for you

Cause done went through the fight baby
Please just survive baby
If you know where I stand, then, I'll be away
Cause it'll never be my choice baby
To give up on us really
Women is so real you found in the first place
When you're the realest thing I've ever met

[Chorus]
I wanna stay and fight for you
Fight 'til my heart is black and blue
Fight til there's nothing left not one single strand of the love we had
I wanna stay and fight for us
Fight like how before I give up
'Til I'm the only one, the only one in love
I'd fight for you

Love And War

[Verse 1:]
Somebody said every day, was gon' be sunny skies,
Only Marvin Gaye and lingerie, I guess somebody lied
We started discussin' it to fightin' then "Don't touch me, please."
Then it's "Let's stop the madness, just come lay with me."
And truth be told I'm wavin' my flag before it goes bad yeah yeah
'Cause we made it this far on for better or worse
I wanna feel it even if it hurts
If I gotta cry to get to the other side, let's go 'cause we're gon' survive oh

[Chorus:]
We stay on the front lines
Yeah but we're still here after the bomb drops
We go so hard we lose control
The fire starts then we explode
When the smoke clears we dry our tears
Only in love and war

[Verse 2:]
Sometimes you're my general, you quarterback all these plays
Sometimes you're my enemy and I'm throwin' grenades
We'll just be chillin' and laughin', I'm layin' on your chest
Don't know what happened 'cause things just went left
But here we go back down that road
That's just the way that it goes
'Cause we made it this far on for better or worse
I wanna feel it even if it hurts
If I gotta cry to get to the other side, as long as you're there I'll survive oh

[Chorus:]
We stay on the front lines
Yeah but we're still here after the bomb drops
We go so hard we lose control
The fire starts then we explode
When the smoke clears we dry our tears
Only in love and war

[Vamp:]
As long as we make up after every fight when it's over
You know I'm comin' home right there where I belong
I'm takin' off this armor oh-oh-oh-whoa-ooh-oh-oh

And we stay on the front lines
Yeah but we're still here after the bomb drops
We go so hard we lose control
The fire starts then we explode baby
When the smoke clears we dry our tears
Only in love and war
Only in love and war
Only in love and war

All The Way Home

Wait a minute baby, going too fast
Imma turn back, oh
Wait a minute baby, going too fast
Imma turn back

> Don't even know why we're fighting for
Damn, I need a minute, so baby keep your distance
Heard it all, so Imma just go
Don't bother waiting up, I just need some time alone
Damn, where the hell are my keys
I just wanna leave, get in my car, and Imma just drive, all night
Turn off my phone, radio on, and drive
So why I'm just

Speeding down the road, and my head out of control
Cause I'm thinking about you all the way home
Got a long way to ride and I can't even deny
I've been Thinking about you all the way home

Wait a minute baby, going too fast
Imma turn back
Thinking about you all the way home
Wait a minute baby, going too fast
Imma turn back
I've been Thinking about you all the way home

Hey baby, I'm back and I'm calmed down
> I've done with all cussin'
I came to give you a little something
You got me screaming for a different reason now
While we're breaking stuff, tearing it up
Neighbors hear you loving me down, all night

> Where the hell are my clothes, I don't wanna go
But it's getting late, so imma just drive all night
Moving real slow, radio low, just drive
So why I'm just

Speeding down the road, and my head out of control
Cause I'm thinking about you all the way home
Got a long way to ride and I can't even deny
I've been Thinking about you all the way home

Wait a minute baby, going too fast
Imma turn back
I've been Thinking about you all the way home
Wait a minute baby, going too fast
Imma turn back
I've been Thinking about you all the way home

And who I think I'm fooling anyway
I'm driving around the block to come right back to you
When all along, I knew I should have stayed right where I was
Instead of drive and think of you

So I'm just

Speeding down the road, and my head out of control
Cause I'm thinking about you all the way home
Got a long way to ride and I can't even deny
I've been Thinking about you all the way home

Wait a minute baby, going too fast
Imma turn back
I've been Thinking about you all the way home
Wait a minute baby, going too fast
Imma turn back
I've been Thinking about you all the way home

Oh oh
(Oh oh)
Oh oh
(Oh)
Imma turn right back babe ,imma come right back to you
Oh
Imma turn right back babe, imma come right back to you

Pieces

Don't you say a word to me
I don't wanna hear it
You say you miss me
I don't wanna feel it, I don't wanna feel it
If you really wanted to be
Oh, If you really wanted to be here
You would make a woman out of me
Oh, I'll be the woman you believe in

You don't want my love I swear you don't want it
You don't want my trust I swear you don't want it
Gave you my all for what? I swear you don't want it
You don't want it bad enough, no, I'ma take it back

I don't want your pieces
Oh no no no no
I don't want your pieces
Oh no no no no

If you can't give me up your love
I don't want your love
It's like you threw a curve at me
Can't you see I'm hurting
It's gonna be hard for me
I know this where your heart been
I'm where your heart went tryna let go of you
But I don't really know if I can do it
Close the door on you
You don't really wanna see me do it, no

I tried a thousand times
Told my heart a thousand lies
You won't let me say goodbye
You don't wanna see me do it, no

I don't want your pieces
Oh no no no no
I don't want your pieces
Oh no no no no

If you can't give me up your love
I don't want your love no no

If you can't give me up your love
I don't want your love no no

No baby, it's so clear
You leave me here
Wondering, dreaming, still believing
What you say, boy, I'm not for it baby
I don't know who you, I think you're playing
Boy you don't want me, you're the only one you're needing
Truth of the matter is you don't think I really have the strength to leave
But I don't want no

Pieces
Oh no no no no
I don't want your pieces
I'm tired of giving up all of my love
I don't want your pieces
Oh no no no no
I don't want your pieces
Oh no no no no

I deserve more than just this a little part
I don't want nothing, if I can't have it all
I ain't even gonna play with something I can't keep
I want the whole thing, or forget about me

Prettiest Girl

See I got the best man in the world
What more can you ask for ladies
When he makes you feel like you're the prettiest

He wakes me up early in the morning
With the smell of breakfast in bed
It's like a fairytale beginning
A heart full of love, and there's no win
It's got me looking kinda crazy
It's too good to be true
Ain't no man that will make me ever feel like you do
And I love it everyday, all day, 24/7
I love it I feel like cupid done shot me from heaven
Undescribable
How it feels with you

I wanna say thank you for making me feel like I'm the prettiest girl in the world

And I wanna thank him, I feel like I'm the prettiest girl in the world
May disagree, but it don't really matter to me,
Say what you want
Cause to him, I'm the prettiest girl in the world

Rose petals on the floor
You don't let me to steam and shower
Now it's time to show me
Everything that he's planned for hours

And I love it everyday, all day, 24/7

Thank You Lord

I gave my heart many times before
I've been used, and lied to
I thought it'd never change
Till I got on my knees and I prayed
Crying please take this pain away
Oh lord I need you in my life
You came and made everything right

And I think where would I be if I didn't have you by my side
I'm so blessed
And all I can say is thank you lord
Thank you lord thank you thank you lord

Temptation, sadness - I've been through it all
I've lost friends, thinking they would always be here when I call
So I get on my knees and I pray
Crying please take this pain away
Cause lord I need you in my life
You came and you made everything right

And I say where would I be if I didn't have you by my side
I'm so blessed
And all I can say is thank you for all of your blessings
You're keeping me safe in your arms
Even when I know I don't deserve it
You're always there to catch me when I fall

Where would I be if I didn't have you by my side
I'm so blessed
Where would I be if I didn't have you by my side
I'm so blessed
And all I can say is (Thank you Lord) thank you Lord
(Thank you Lord) Thank you
(Thank you Lord)
I just wanna say thank you
Thank you lord

Black Tears

(Best Buy Bonus Track)

No man knows what it's like
Crying a river, a river for love
Seems like no tears
When the warning spread out
It's always too late and she's already given up

Now what can you do?
Now that she's got that touch, she's got that hold
And I...
And what would you do?
Now that she's been hurt in love
Gon need higher trust

'Cus she's giving so much love
And it seems like a bitch just staying down
And it's taking more than she can give
To the point when she can't take no more
And her tears still are black

Black tears, black tears
Black tears, black tears
Black tears, black tears
Black tears, black tears
Black tears, black tears
Black tears, black tears
Black tears

See I've been through it
Once or twice before
So you know that it feel good
When a good one is scored

You could try anything
To make it work
And then you realize you're standing alone
I wanna know

Now what can you do?
Now that she's got that touch, she's got that hold
And I...
And what would you do?
Now that she's been hurt in love
Gon need higher trust

'Cus she's giving so much love
And it seems like a bitch just staying down
And it's taking more than she can give
To the point when she can't take no more
And her tears still are black

Black tears, black tears
Black tears, black tears
Black tears, black tears
Black tears, black tears
Black tears, black tears
Black tears, black tears
Black tears

Oh does it make you feel real good?
Have the women pride with you for you
Probably been like a real man
Don't know how you can sleep at night, at night

Tell me why does the blame let a good girl go
And they do everything to keep them up
Well the girl can't invent it, is there a reason?
You wanna give it up

'Cus she's giving so much love
And it seems like a bitch just staying down
And it's taking more than she can give
To the point when she can't take no more
And her tears still are black

Black tears, black tears
Black tears, black tears
Black tears, black tears
Black tears, black tears
Black tears, black tears
Black tears, black tears
Black tears
