90’s BABY
Listen Imma bring it back I got style for days
Plus they all be asking where I’m from

I’m a 90’s girl all about the corner store
And the double-dutching on the block

Flash back on ya suckas it’s ’bout time that ya’ll learned
About the meanest era getting props it deserves
Adjust your radios I’m fin to school ya
Yea I’m a youngin’ yo but I’m about to school ya, promise
Chorus

Catch up, catch up, catch up get on my train

My demeanor stays on your brain and my body says enough
Not to mention I’m a Crooklyn watch it ya’ll remember that
So make sure you don’t forget, had to pause and bring em’ back
Chorus (2x)
All aboard now, say you’re coming

This is how the 90’s babies do it (ooh ooh)
Chorus (2x)
BABY, BABY featuring Lil Mama
Losin’ me shouldn’t have been an option
I ain’t walkin’ ‘round here topless
I know them girls be gettin’ it poppin’
Strange way of gettin’ it poppin’
And if you can’t see through these jeans
Then you won’t see it up on me
It’s best to tell ya, don’t waste your time
Your eyes don’t make me fine
I ain’t her and she ain’t me
Why give you my love if you can’t see that
I ain’t givin’ you whatever you want, boy
I ain’t another toy in your toy box
My mama said, this my love and love ain’t free
And it’s your mama fault that you can’t perceive that
It’s all good, just pick up your face, boy
It’s all good, pick up your face, boy
All my girls like,
Uh, uh, baby, baby
Uh, uh, baby, baby
Uh, uh, baby, baby
Uh, uh, baby, baby
A goody boy, boy, stop the promisin’
Ever since good boys ain’t so common
And since this ain’t so common
Go ‘head make stupid look real funny then
Tomorrow might be every word in the hook
So, call me every word in the book
It’s best to tell you, don’t waste your time
Your eyes don’t make me fine
[Rap]
Karina, when he think he a pimp, what you tell him
See, you call it pimpin’, but I be callin’ it slippin’
Cause we don’t get down like that, no
And I’ma say what I say with or without your attention
Uh, uh, baby, baby
Uh, uh, baby, baby
Uh, uh, baby, baby
Lil’ Mama, let’s go
I done been up on this block long time like old timers
And now we stood for good cause like Obama
Put my girls on
Some smarts and some dumber
The smart ones succeed
The others is baby, baby
The hotter it got, the more they took off
The hotter I got, the more I took off
Fly like an eagle
Tell the boy I don’t need you
Karina and Mama Lil’
The voice of the young people
CAN’T FIND THE WORDS
Now we’ve been talking for a while
And you got me trying to figure out
Boy I don’t know what to say to you
But you got me feeling some kind of way for you
And all I know is when we’re together
No one can make me feel the way you do baby
I wish each moment could last forever
It’s hard to explain the way I feel for you
I just can’t find the words
Chorus
Got me losing myself and what I’m trying to say
And it’s so hard to fight it can’t help but feeling this way
And every time that I’m with you it’s like my heart gets weak
Feels like I’m losing my breath making it hard to speak
I just can’t find the words (ooh ooh)
(repeat 4x)
Now I know I come off kinda shy
But it’s hard to say what’s on my mind
The chemistry we have is hard to find
But to find the right words is gonna take some time
Chorus
You got me tripping over words
You got me stuttering
And like a bad dream I’m calling out but you don’t hear me speak
And constantly I find myself in this predicament
So let me show you baby cuz actions speak louder than words
Chorus(2x)
16 @ WAR
Ain’t no daddies where I’m from there’s just mad mothers
And eyes that still seem they can’t look past color
Why am I disrespected by someone I should call brother
And why girls feel unpretty and constantly hate each other
Bad air in my lungs, man I can’t breathe
My eyes burnin’ from all the dirt and the debris
And it’s third degree, emotionless on the scene
It’s like a disease the way ya’ll killin’ me
I’m sixteen and I shouldn’t have to feel like this
I’m sixteen every young boy out here want to kiss
I’m sixteen and me and my mama going through it
I’m sixteen on the block, sixteen on the block
I’m sixteen at war (6)
I’m sixteen on the block, sixteen on the block
Around here cool is another word for fool
If he smoke, then she smoke, I gotta smoke too
Now what would I do if I didn’t have a clue
I’m sixteen y.o., asking God oh why oh
If my clothes ain’t tight, then he ain’t gon’ like me
Eyes on the prize so the next girl dress just like me
I’m so full of promise but why promise
If I’ma just be rewarded by bad actions
To him I’m just a transaction
I want you to love my mind, my smile, my style
I want you to know the best of me
I want to belong without being treated like property
Why does it seem like a fantasy
WINNER
I guess the stars were aligned when we met up
‘cuz baby I, I see the stars in your eyes every time we touch
Sometimes I just wanna go run away and hide
But every time I do you always find a way to come and change my mind
You’re my hero
Chorus
I feel like a winner when you’re beside me
There ain’t a thing that I can’t be I feel like a winner
You’re there to guide me like the wind beneath my wing
I feel like a winner
Any time I plan on giving it up you grab my hand and look inside of me
To make me feel like a winner, feel like a winner
There were others that I loved in the past
Now I know it didn’t last ‘cuz we were destined for one another
And I don’t even have to ask if you got my back, ‘cuz I know the answer to that
You got me covered
Anybody else is just a memory from long ago
And I found love with you here by my side
You’re my hero
Chorus
(Spoken) When I’m with you I feel like I could do anything
I feel like I could fly a plane, race a train
Travel through the galaxies and make the stars spell out your name
I feel like I could climb the highest mountain
And reach up into the sky
Boy with you here I could do anything
I would give it all up just to feel your touch
You’re the only one I need, it’s like you got me star-struck baby
Boy I’m caught up you’re the other part of me
Chorus (2x)
CAN YOU HANDLE IT
I don’t like the way you look at her, she looks at you, it’s frustrating
People say when we’re together it looks more like you two are dating (more than you and me)
I tell you, some things you do make me uncomfortable
You tell me I’m tripping and that I should let it go
So I wonder to myself would you still think it’s all good
If the shoe was on the other foot
I don’t think you would, no
Chorus (2x)
What if your friends started paying more attention to me
(Could you handle it, tell me could you handle it, boy)
What if I told you Tony said I was pretty
(what would you say, what would you say?)
When you’re not around he goes out of his way to come and chill with me
(what would you say, what would you say?)
I tell you some things you do make me uncomfortable
You tell me I’m tripping and that I should let it go
Chorus
La La (3x)
What if I did what you do baby?
La La (3x)
What if it happened to you?
Chorus
THE LOVE WE GOT
My heart he takes
He’ll always be my baby
We may bend, won’t break
What we got no one else can take
He’s the sun when my day is low
I’m his fan cheering from front row
His love is the center of my attention
Oh, oh
See ya’ll don’t know what he do for me
That guy is my everything
We argue, we fight
Then we make up
By the end of the night
Don’t even speak it, speak it
We know what we got
I love him, he loves me
And this is how love should be
I’m down for the love that he got, that he got
And he stay down for the love that we got, that we got
He’s embedded in my space
Every time he speaks
He blows me away
I don’t care what people say
As long as he’s in the same place where I lay
See I be his echo
I’m his princess, he’s my general
And no matter what you think of our love
Time won’t outlast us
The miles I’ll walk for him are infinite
I’ll run circles around the world
And every day I’m beside him feels heaven sent
And all else is irrelevant
So keep on exuding your love onto me
THEY AIN’T GOTTA LOVE YOU
They ain’t gotta be friends with you
They ain’t gotta hang out with you
They ain’t even gotta deal with you
Or love you even when you got an attitude
They ain’t ever gotta hear you speak
Or think about you when they go to sleep
Baby I don’t care what they think, you’re the one for me
Chorus (2x)
They ain’t gotta love you (oh no)
They ain’t gotta love you (oh no)
So tell me why they hating on our love
When they know that you’re the one my heart beats for
They can talk till they blue in the face
They can scream, they can cuss’, they can hate
They can say what they wanna say
But don’t cross the line disrespecting my babe
They trying hard to break us up (oooh)
They trying hard and they doing too much
This ain’t about them it’s about us
It’s about our love
Chorus (2x)
Don’t care what my momma say
‘cuz she ain’t always right
Forget what daddy say
I’m gonna live my life
You are the only one for me
Baby I’m yours for keeps
They ain’t gotta love you (4x)
Chorus (2x)
SLOW MOTION
I know that you’ve been calling me
And I’m happy that we met
Don’t think that I’m not interested
I’m just playing hard to get
So much about this crazy game they call love
I’m still trying to understand
So could you be my best friend
Before you call yourself my man
Chorus
Why can’t I love you in slow motion
Take my time
Take away the pressure on my mind
Really get to know you but rewind
Wanna love you in slow motion
Why can’t I
You seem to know just what you want
And I like your confidence
Some things a girl should never rush
‘cause if you do you hurt yourself
So much about this crazy game they call love
I’m still trying to understand
So would you be my best friend
Before you call yourself my man
Chorus
I’m too young for tears in the night
And it’s too soon for this to be right
Don’t wanna mess with your pride
The question’s not when but why
Chorus
CAN’T BRING ME DOWN
I’m crying inside but filled up with pride
I won’t let them see no tears in my eyes
I’m mad at the world, it can be so unfair
The judgement, the jealousy, still I’m not scared
I’m focused, determined, I’m ready to win
The critics I see won’t doubt me again
Darkness is gone, I’m ready to shine
Right now it’s victory time
Chorus
They can’t bring me down, no
Test me I know they will try
But they won’t bring me down, no
I know what I’m made of inside
They can’t bring me down, no
It ain’t over until the last round
Will they bring me down, no
If I stumble I won’t hit the ground
They can’t bring me down
My heart’s beating hard, my adrenaline’s high
I’m raging like fire, I aim for the sky
‘cause I know what I want, I’ll rewrite the rules
I know my value, I’m God’s precious jewel
I’ve given my heart to the dream that I choose
It’s time to turn back, I simply refuse
I’m flying high, over the wall
Try and catch me but I’ll never fall
Chorus
FIRST LOVE
There for me, through all of my ups and downs
And what I feel you always seem to know
You find the words when I need comforting
And dry my eyes, that’s why I love you so
More than a friend you’re my first love
I can always depend on my first love
Feel like I have known you all my life
I can’t explain how close we are
When something’s wrong, you know how to make it right
That’s why you stay close to my heart
More than a friend you’re my first love
I can always depend on my first love
Chorus
The first thought in my mind, the chill up my spine
The melody in my heart, you are my very first love
You’re the sweet lullaby, my first kiss goodnight
The beat in my heart
Music, my very first love
With you in my life, I’m not lonely at all
And if there are tears, I know you’d catch them all
‘cause you know my pain, and you know my joy
There’s no secrets between us, only pretty piano chords
Chorus
