You a mom and pop, I'm a corporation,
I'm the press conference, you're a conversation.
...
Got you all fired up, with your Napoleon complex, seein’ right through you like you’re bathin’ in Windex
...
You're delusional, you're delusional, (He's all up in my George Foreman).
Quote:
Heartbreaker you’ve got the best of me
But I just keep on comin’ back incessantly
Quote:
I have learned that beauty
Has to flourish in the light
Wild horses run unbridled
Or their spirit dies
Quote:
I gravitated towards a patriarch
So young predictably
I was resigned to spend my life
With a maze of misery /
A boy and a girl befriended me
We’re bonded through despondency
I stayed so long but finally
I fled to save my sanity
Quote:
I can’t be elusive with you honey
‘Cause it’s blatant that I’m feeling you
And it’s too hard for me to leave abruptly
‘Cause you’re the only thing I wanna do
Quote:
So s’cusa me, te quiero mucho papi
Je ne sais pas mais c’est la vie
When you’re messin’ with the one
True lover that make you O.O.C.

Quote:
It wasn't raining yet
But it was definitely a little misty on
That warm November night
And my heart was pounding
My inner voice resounding
Begging me to turn away
But I just had to see your face
To feel alive
....
I envision you caressing me
And go back in time
To relive the splendor of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night
And so we finished the Moet
And started feeling liberated
And I surrendered as you took me
In your arms
Quote:
I thought we had something special, we had something good but I should have had another mechanic under my hood.
Well I guess I'm trying to be nonchalant about it
And I'm going to extremes to prove I'm fine without you
But in reality I'm slowly losing my my mind
Underneath the guise of a smile gradually I'm dying inside
Friends ask me how I feel and I lie convincingly
'Cause I don't want to reveal the fact that I'm suffering
So I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night
And turn down all the lights and then break down and cry
You on your job, you hatin' hard,
Ain't goin' feed you, I'mma let you starve.
Graspin' for air, and I'm ventilation,
You out of breath, hope you ain't waitin'.
Tellin' the world how much you miss me,
But we never were, so why you trippin'?
You a mom and pop, I'm a corporation,
I'm the, press conference, you're a conversation.
You look at me and see the girl
Who lives inside the golden world
But don't believe
That's all there is to see
You'll never know the real me
She smiles through a thousand tears
And harbors adolescent fears
She dreams of all
That she can never be
She wades in insecurity
And hides herself inside of me
Don't say, "She takes it all for granted"
I'm well aware of all I have
Don't think that I am disenchanted
Please understand
It seems as though I've always been
Somebody outside looking in
Well, here I am for all of them to bleed
But they can't take my heart from me
And they can't bring me to my knees
They'll never know the real me
No shade to Shakespeare - she's great for a throwback (I was a fan of 'Romeo and Juliet', 'Titanic', etc.) - but Mariah wrote 'The Roof', which gives her the edge.
Plus, Mariah has only been around since the '90s - who's to say she's even peaked artistically yet?
Let me put your name in my sig because I'm a fan of you for that one
