jazmine sullivan - after the hurricane

Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh

I can see it in his eyes (Oh I), and he's been avoiding me all day
It seems as though he wants to cry, (Oh, I) and he's been acting really strange
He starts talkin' and I tuned him out
It doesn't matter anyway
Because I knew as soon as I saw clouds, yea
I knew what he was gonna say

Cuz when the tears start flowin' and the wind starts blowin'
That's how you know its comin' for you
When the rain start fallin' and you feel the pain comin'
That's how you know its comin' for you

Just like a hurricane, just like a hurricane, the way you break everything that comes in your way
Just like a hurricane, Just like a hurricane, the way you broke my heart and now I'm left with the pain
After the hurricane

Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh

Baby I'm not surprised, Oh I
You said just what I thought you would
And it hurts I ain't gon' lie oh I
But it doesn't hurt as bad as it look

Cuz when the tears start flowin' and the wind starts blowin'
That's how you know its comin' for you
When the rain start fallin' and you feel the pain comin'
That's how you know its comin' for you (hey baby)

Just like a hurricane, just like a hurricane, the way you break everything that comes in your way
Just like a hurricane, Just like a hurricane, the way you broke my heart and now I'm left with the pain
After the hurricane

Now my life is shattered ,and I'm left to pick up the pieces
And find a new beginning and put it back together again
After the hurricane, the hurricane

Just like a hurricane, just like a hurricane, the way you break everything that comes in your way
Just like a hurricane, Just like a hurricane, the way you broke my heart and now I'm left with the pain
After the hurricane

jazmine sullivan - best of me

Why can't I, leave him alone?
Break the chains that trap me in, and let him go
Why can't I... just break free?
Can't explain what kind of hold he has on me

(I wanna say no) I wanna say No, but all I say is Yes
(I wanna move on) I wanna move on, and not second guess
(I wanna let go) I wanna let go, but he just gets the best of me

What is this, that makes me weak and fall?
Even tho, it ain't no good at all
What is this, that keeps me here?
When it's brought me so much pain thru the years

(I wanna say no) I wanna say No, but all I say is Yes
(I wanna move on) I wanna move on, and not second guess
(I wanna let go) I wanna let go, but he just gets the best of me
(Best of m, e best of me)

(Don't why, why I stay)
It should be a crime what your doin to me
(And how u keep, keep me comin back)
And I don't understand how u do me like that
(But all I do is love you)
When all I should do is leave
But it ain't easy when hes got the best of me

(I wanna say no) I wanna say No, but all I say is Yes
(I wanna move on) I wanna move on, and not second guess
(I wanna let go) I wanna let go, but he just gets the best of me
(Best of me, best of me)

(I wanna say no) I wanna say No, but all I say is Yes
(I wanna move on) I wanna move on, and not second guess
(I wanna let go) I wanna let go, but he just gets the best of me
(O yea)

jazmine sullivan - break my little heart

If you could read my mind
You'd know I'm for real this time
I been made a fool so much
Til' I'm scared to fall in love
Please don't be a fool like the rest
Give me a hundred percent
Show me that the others wasn't for me
And you; ll be sure
to get the best out of me
(Find a way to turn me on)
If you find a way,
maybe we can make a deal
Promise me boy, don't you lead me on
You don't know how I feel
Please promise me
If you knew what I've been through
You would let me not be used
So a few I can't explain
Never thought I'd fall in love again
Feels so right (so right)
Something I been missing all my life
Say you won't do me wrong

jazmine sullivan - bust your windows

I bust the windows out ya car
And no it didn't mend my broken heart
I'll probably always have these ugly scars
But right now I don't care about that part

I bust the windows out ya car
After I saw you laying next to her
I didn't wanna but I took my turn
I'm glad I did it cause you had to learn...

I must admit it helped a little bit
To think of how you'd feel when you saw it
I didn't know that I had that much strength
But I'm glad you see what happens when...

You see you can't just play with people's feelings
Tell them you love them and don't mean it
You'll probably say that it was juvenile
But I think that I deserve to smile

I bust the windows out ya car
You know I did it cause I left my mark
Wrote my initials with the crowbar
And then I drove off into the dawn

I bust the windows out ya car
You should feel lucky that that's all I did
After five whole years of this bullshit
Gave you all of me and you played with it

Oooh ahh...
I must admit it helped a little bit
To think of how you'd feel when you saw it
I didn't know that I had that much strength
But I'm glad you see what happens when...

You see you can't just play with people's feelings
Tell them you love them and don't mean it
You'll probably say that it was juvenile
But I think that I deserve to smile

But it don't comfort to my broken heart
You could never feel how I felt that day
Until it happens baby you don't know pain

Oooh Yeah I did it (Yeah I did it)
You should know it (You should know it)
I ain't sorry (I ain't sorry)
You deserved it (You deserved it)

After what you did to me (After what you did)
You deserved it (You deserved it)
I ain't sorry (I ain't sorry) no no oh... (I ain't sorry)

You broke my heart
So I broke ya car
You caused me pain (You caused me pain)
So I did the same

Even though all that you did to me was much worse
I had to do something to make you hurt yeah
Oh but why am I still cryin'?
Why am I the one whose still cryin'?

Oh oh you really hurt me baby
You really you really hurt me baby
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
now watch me yule
now watch me yule
I bust the windows out ya car...

jazmine sullivan - call me guilty

Jazmine: Mom
Mom: What's the matter Jaz?

I can't take this anymore.
Mom: He did what?
Calm down ok. Calm down.
Jazmine: Ima kill him.
Mom: Listen to meÂ?
Jazmine: Ima kill him.
I know Ima kill him.
Mom: Listen to me,
get your stuff and come home.
Jazmine: I can't come home.
Ima kill him. Ima do it.

(1st Verse)
I'm sitting contemplating
is it worth it should I take it
Take that shot and change my life
Get that glock and take his life
Hospitals and bloody noses
this would end all obstacles
that I could leave.
Knowing I can't leave
so it's either him or me

(Pre-Chorus)
Cause he gon' kill me if I stay I know
Gon' kill me, he cant change I know
from the first time that he did it
made a promise that he'd quit it
(shit)
God it's so much worse
don't wanna end up in a hearse
I guess I gotta do it first
yes I gotta do it first

(Chorus)
I cant go back now, back now, I'm runnin'
but where to go cops I hear them comin'
and if they catch me I still ain't sorry
If that was wrong just call me guilty
Cause if you knew what he did to me
I know I would get your sympathy
So if they catch me I still ain't sorry
Just lock me up and call me guilty guilty.

(2nd Verse)
I did it
Pulled the trigger
It wasn't so hard go figure.
Before I did it I said
This was for all the blood I shed.
For all the women
who go through this shit.
Can't think of what to do, this shit
done tore Â?em up inside and out.
Who's still tryna get out.

(Pre-Chorus)
He gon' kill you if you stay I know
I've been through this, oh yes I know
I know he promised that he'd quit it
If you believe him girl forget it
(shit)
You know I'm right
Don't wanna see him take your life
And it will only just get worse
That's why I had to do it first.

(Chorus)
I cant go back now, back now, I'm runnin'
but where to go cops I hear them comin'
and if they catch me I still ain't sorry
If that was wrong just call me guilty
Cause if you knew what he did to me
I know I would get your sympathy
So if they catch me I still ain't sorry
Just lock me up and call me guilty guilty.

Bridge:
There's so much blood
I grabbed my stuff
But before I could leave the cops busted in.
(You have the right to remain silent)
No, I have the right to stay alive.
But guess what, I'd do it again.
He would have killed me (just)
Before I killed him.
It would have been him up in this building.
It would have been him faking tears.
But what's funny is that
I'm the one standing here, hey yeah.

(Chorus)
I cant go back now, back now, I'm runnin'
but where to go cops I hear them comin'
and if they catch me I still ain't sorry
If that was wrong just call me guilty
Cause if you knew what he did to me
I know I would get your sympathy
So if they catch me I still ain't sorry
Just lock me up and call me guilty guilty

jazmine sullivan - dream big

Packing up my shh and I'm going real far
Going off to Hollywood to be a big star
There's nothing here for me so I gotta move fast
And I'm getting on the road and will never look back (hey)

Chorus
I gotta dream big (dream big)cuz when it happen its gon' happen real quick (yes I feel it, I gotta)
I gotta move fast cuz when it happen I cant let it move past (only get one chance)

Cant spend another second sitting on my mama's couch
So if I dont take a chance I wont ever get out
Some people talk but never do they just running they mouth
But I mean just what I say and Ima show them about yeah

When it feel like you been waiting all your life for the second
You'll be a fool to just let it past so go and get it
No matter near or far, to the moon, the stars

Chorus

jazmine sullivan - drive by

I got my shoes and my shirt and my Jackie O glasses
All black everything, I do it with passion
Call me Lucy Lu cause I look like an assassin
Drive by slow til the Popo pass me

I'll be honest, I get lonely sometimes
And just so I can hear your voice, I call your phone
And I'd be lying, if I said I didn't go too far
Some nights I wait in my car, out by your home

[Chorus]
Ooooooh

And I know it's crazy but baby
You're always on my mind
So I...

I got my shoes and my shirt and my Jackie O glasses
All black everything, I do it with passion
Call me Lucy Lu cause I look like an assassin
Drive by slow til the Popo pass me

I'll be honest, really miss you sometimes
And I think of you everynight I can't sleep
I'd be lying, if I said I wasn't out of it
If only you can understand what you do to me

[Chorus]
Ooooooh
I couldn't forget you, if I wanted to
And I know it's crazy but baby
You're always on my mind
So I...
I drive by, I drive by, I drive by
It's crazy, baby, you're always on my mind

[Bridge]

I'm that chick that you should be lucky to get with
No hit and run with it
I'm doing it up, all over the world
I'm getting real up all over the world
Everywhere I go I hear them screaming my name
And all I really wanted was the fortune and fame
Just to sit back relax and ride in my cadillac
For my ladies... working hard I know you feeling that

All the things people say don't faze me (x4).

jazmine sullivan - holding you down

[Missy]:
Why can't I find somebody else?
When I know,
Know that you are doing wrong
It?s so hard,
hard to let go.

[Jazmine]:
I done went through just about two packs of tissues, baby
And you?re looking at me like you ain?t the issue, baby
And though I tried to leave
I can't stop missing you baby
and I keep coming,
I keep coming back.

[CHORUS]:
(Keep goin' in circles, circles)
Round and round
And why I?m doing me so wrong? I just keep holding you down
I feel so stupid,
foolish
Loving you this way
But what can i say?
But I wanna go
(I wanna go but I keep coming back)

Why I?m so confused?
For you I have no answer boy
Why I fail to use boy just like a toy?
It?s a shame that you don?t care enough to even give me half the love
I give to you
I live for you, baby
I'm ashamed to say that I?m the blame for how you act
'Cause I keep coming
(I keep coming back)

[CHORUS]:
(Keep goin' in circles, circles)
Round and round
And why I?m doing me so wrong? I just keep holding you down
I feel so stupid,
foolish
Loving you this way
But what can i say?
But I wanna go
(I wanna go but I keep coming back)

I can?t stop, I
I can?t, I can?t stop missing you baby
And I, I, I can't stop
I, I, I can't stop

I?ll stay 'cause I love you but I hate that I stay
You know I won't go
That?s why you treat me this way
I wanna be happy,
though it hurts me so bad
Don?t know what it is that keeps me coming back.

Hold up wait up a minute...

[CHORUS x2]:
(Keep goin' in circles, circles)
Round and round
And why I?m doing me so wrong? I just keep holding you down

(I wanna go but I keep coming back)

jazmine sullivan - in love with another man

If I could... could forget him
I would... please believe me
And I know that I should throw the towel in
But baby it's not... not that easy
You treat me so much better than him
And if I was sane there'd be no competition
But... but I'm in love with someone else
And I'm so sorry
I'm in love with another man
And I know it aint right

You should go and find someone else
Who can treat you right
Give you the world
Someone who understands the man you are
Cause baby you shine so bright
And I would just dim your star
A girl who'll treat you like you treat them
Boy I know there's plenty women
Who would love to have a man like you
But I'm in love with someone else...
I'm so sorry baby
I know I aint right... no no no no no no
For what I did to you baby

I can't explain why it's him and not you
But at the end of the day baby I just don't want to
Cause he aint no doctor
And we always seem to fight, he got the perfect body
And sometimes he don't even treat me right
Oh but when I'm with him, but when I'm with him
When I'm with him, aint nobody else like it
I'm so sorry baby that I have to do this to you
But I can't go on pretending...
Cause I love him, I love him
And I'm so sorry... do you hear me?
I'm so sorry but I love that man
I love that man...
He aint always right , but he's just right for me
I'm in love with another man... and I'm so sorry...
But I love someone else

jazmine sullivan - lions tigers and bears

I'm not scared
Of lions
And tigers and bears
(No i'm not)
But i'm scared
Of loving you
I'm not scared
To perform
At a sold out affair
(That's right)
But i'm scared
Of loving you
Am I the only one
Who thinks
It's an impossible task
Why it don't last?
Is that too much to ask?
Why do we love love
When love seems
To hate us?

Sorry if I sound
So filled with gloom
You say you care
And I know you do
But this is
From my experience
And my conclusion
Only makes sense

Just cause I love you
And you love me
It doesn't mean
That we're meant to be
I can climb mountains
Swim cross the seas
But the most
Frightening thing
You and me

Most circumstances
I know my fate
But in this love thang
I don't get the game
Why does it feel
Like those who give in
They only wind up
Losing a friend

Just cause I love you
And you love me
It doesn't mean
That we'll ever be
Fly cross the ocean
Sing for the queen
But the most
Frightening thing
Is you and me

I'm sure though
I'm not sure
But if we never try
We'll never know
It's better to have loved
Then not to loved at all

Not trying is worse
Than to stumble and fall
And if we do
I'd rather it be with you
Cause at least there
Will be sweet memories
Oh, I'm not scared

jazmine sullivan - live a lie

How u gon do that to me?
(siiigh)
I can't believe this

I wish I never ever
got drunk that nite
Made me foolish enough
to come to ur crib
Walked up the stairs
and then I turned
on the lights
Couldn't even speak
because it
happened so quick
I wish I never saw
ur punk ass that nite
You always seem
to calm me down with ur lies
Even though I know better
I try and I try
But u always
have the perfect alibi

Chorus:
If a lie gon get me thru
I rather not know the truth
If the truth gon make me cry
I rather just live a lie (x2)

I wish I never ever
saw u that nite
Rite now I'd still be
thinkin we were ok
I called u just before
I got on my flight
I say 'I love u'
And u tell me the same
If I could go back in time
I never woulda called ur phone up
Never woulda dialed ur number
Never woulda gotten that drunk
If I could go back in time
I never woulda gotten that tore
Never woulda asked for one more
Never woulda walked thru ur door

Chorus:
If a lie gon get me thru
I rather not know the truth
If the truth gon make me cry
I rather just live a lie (x2)

Easier to live
Like u don't see nuttin
Even tho it ain't rite
Harder to turn over in ur bed
and he ain't by ur side
I think
if I didn't walk in that nite
And see u with my own eyes
I would still be livin a lie

Just gotta know
Whatever u do
It's gon come back to u
I can't believe this

Chorus:
If a lie gon get me thru
I rather not know the truth
If the truth gon make me cry
I rather just live a lie
