But You Caint Use My Phone (2015)












Caint Use My Phone (Suite) lyrics - Erykah Badu

You can call it, but you can't use my phone
You can call it, but you can't use my phone
You can call it, but you can't use my phone

You better use telepathy 'cause you can't use my phone
Put a message in a bottle, but you can't use my phone
You better use Morse code 'cause you can't use my phone
Get a towel and some smoke 'cause you can't use my phone
You can call her, but you can't use my phone

You can call her, but you can't use my phone
You can call her, but you can't use my phone
You can call her, but you can't use my phone
Yeah yeah yeah
Better use telepathy 'cause you can't use my phone
Get a towel and some smoke 'cause you can't use my phone
Down, calling, up, right, down, dialing, dialing, calling
Dialing, right, up, right, down, calling, calling, calling
Badu, Badu, Badu, Badu, Badu, Badu, Badu, Badu

Hi lyrics - Erykah Badu

Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello

Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello

Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello

Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello (hello, hello, hello, hello)
Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello (hello)

Cel U Lar Device lyrics - Erykah Badu

You used to call me on my cellular device at night
You used to call me on my cellular device at night
And I know when that hotline bling, that could only mean one thing
I know when that hotline bling, that could only mean one thing

Ever since I left the city you
Got a reputation for yourself now
Everybody knows and I feel left out
Boy, you got me down, and got me stressed out
'Cause ever since I left the city, you
Started gettin' dressed and goin' out more
Glasses of champagne out on the dance floor
Hangin' with some dudes I've never seen before

You used to call me on my cellular device at night
You used to call me on my cellular device at night
And I know when that hotline bling, that could only mean one thing
I know when that hotline bling, that could only mean one thing
(Two one four, witness!)

Some people just said let it go
And on and on and such and such
But they don't ride around with us
No, no, no
Ain't that too bad we love to hang
And for a while, it stays the same
But now you tryna change the game
No, no, no

You used to call me on my cellular device at night
You used to call me on my cellular device at night
And I know when that hotline bling, that could only mean one thing
I know when that hotline bling, that could only mean one thing

Late night when you need my love
Late night when you need my love
Late night when you need my love
Late night when you need my love

You've reached the Erykah Badu hotline
If you're calling for Erykah, press 1
If you're calling to wish her a happy birthday, Kwanzaa, MLK, Black History Month, Juneteenth, or Hanukkah, press 2
If you're calling because you just saw her on B.E.T, MTV, or any other social media outlet, and you're checking to make sure you're still in good standing, press 3
If you're calling to beg for some shit in general, press 4
If you're calling to beg for some shit, but this is that pre-call before the actual begging, press 5
If you've already made that pre-call and this is the actual call to beg, press 6
If you're calling to ask for some free tickets in a city near you, and know she don't really fuck with you like that? Press 7
If you're calling to book Erykah, to flip the first burger at your company BBQ, or to DJ at your little cousins slip-and-slide party, press 8
If you're calling to say peace, and don't really fit into any of those descriptions
Text me, because I don't really answer voicemail

You used to call me on my cellular device at night
You used to call me on my cellular device at night
And I know when that hotline bling, that could only mean one thing
I know when that hotline bling, that could only mean one thing

Ever since I left the city you
Got a reputation for yourself now
Everybody knows and I feel left out
Boy, you got me down, and got me stressed out
'Cause ever since I left the city, you
Started gettin' dressed and goin' out more
Glasses of champagne out on the dance floor
Hangin' with some dudes I've never seen before

You used to call me on my cellular device at night
You used to call me on my cellular device at night
And I know when that hotline bling, that could only mean one thing
I know when that hotline bling, that could only mean one thing

Them people just said let it go
And on and on and such and such
But they don't ride around with us
Oh, no, no
Ain't that too bad we love to hang
And for a while, it stays the same
But now you tryna change the game
Oh, no, no

You used to call me on my cellular device at night
You used to call me on my cellular device at night
And I know when that hotline bling, that could only mean one thing
I know when that hotline bling, that could only mean one thing

Phone Down lyrics - Erykah Badu

I can make you put your phone down
I can make you, I can make you
I can make you put your phone down
I can make you put your phone down
I can make you, I can make you
I can make you put your phone down
I can make you put your phone down
I can make you, I can make you
I can make you put your phone down

I can make you put your phone down
As we cruise through the city
I can make you put your phone down
You ain't gonna text no one when you with me
I can make you put your phone down
So you can show me attention
And I'll cut mine off too
Boy that'll help when I listen
I can make you put your phone down
Baby we don't need it
Every time you get a message
Act like you don't see it
I can make you put your phone down
Tell me do you copy and paste
I can make you put your phone down
Boy that ain't gon' stop me

I can make you put your phone down
I can make you, I can make you
I can make you put your phone down
I can make you put your phone down
I can make you, I can make you
I can make you put your phone down
I can make you put your phone down

Make you not wanna check that again
I could make you put your phone down
Riding in a drop hair blowin' in the wind
Baby I will put my phone down
'Cause when you talk I'm 'a listen
I can make you put your phone down
Leave it at the crib guarantee you wouldn't miss it
I could make you put your phone down
And it wouldn't leave your pocket
I can make you put your phone down
Probably wouldn't even know how to unlock it
I could make you put your phone down
I see your friend calling but forget em'
I can make you put your phone down
Your mama probably think you out there missin'

I can make you put your phone down
I can make you, I can make you
I can make you put your phone down
I can make you put your phone down
I can make you, I can make you
I can make you put your phone down

Ah
I can make you put your phone down
I can make you, I can make you
I can make you put your phone (put your phone down, put your phone)

U Use To Call Me lyrics - Erykah Badu (feat. ItsRoutine)

(You used to call me)
Ugh, man
You're so beautiful

[ItsRoutine:]
Look I'm about to go in
I'm gonna get inside these bitches head like a sew in
Post to drop in Halloween but really I don't know when
I take all the W's I can get and you get no wins
Yeah, Erykah on my hotline
Recognition from a great, man, it's about time
Fan base growin' at a steady pace
I don't talk unless the money straight
Look I do it for the music man, the money just a bonus
Everybody that I know is still rap personas
Niggas comin' out the wood works like they knew me
My hair's longer than the twist in the movies
Real niggas wassup

(You used to call me)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
(You used to call me)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

(You used to call me)

(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
(You used to call me)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Mr. Telephone Man lyrics - Erykah Badu

Mr. Telephone Man (there is something wrong with my line)
Mr. Telephone Man (I get a click every time)
Mr. Telephone Man (there is something wrong with my line)
Mr. Telephone Man (I get a click every time)

Mr. Telephone Man
I called a thousand times, Mr. Telephone Man
Trouble on the line, Mr. Telephone Man

Or maybe it's just different, Mr. Telephone Man

Mr. Telephone Man

What's Yo Phone Number / Telephone (Ghost Of Screw Mix) lyrics - Erykah Badu (feat. ItsRoutine)

[Part I: What's Yo Phone Number]

[Erykah Badu:]
Baby, what's your phone number?
I'm crazy, call me Willy Wonka
Lately you make me really wonder
If you really wanna
Know I'm kinda fast but spend the night
Baby, what's your phone number?
Stay Jodeci, really want you just
I see no cookie monster
Uh, uh, you really wanna
Know I'm kinda fast but spend the night
Ah, ah, ah

[ItsRoutine:]
What's your phone number?
Could I call you?
I can be the one you give your all to
Know I hate the fall, so when fall's through, baby, fall through
You're different, fuck what they all do
Tryna get to know you
On a level you ain't been introduced to
I Ain't tryna hurt or confuse you
Maybe amuse you, damn
Baby, we could do the usual
I think I can use you
I think I could put you in a place and never lose you
We the freaks nigga, we could try to voodoo
You been trying to solve the puzzle, you ain't even got a clue to
I hate the things that you do
You hate the fact that I moved
I'm somewhere with someone new
We talked about a lot but you ain't listen
Man, I'm at the living room of Erykah Badu house
Sipping on some tea, man Zack is the Witness

This is how it goes when you gifted
This is how it goes when you get it
Man, I got some goals for these bitches
Yeah, I keep it in the bun
But it's just that this is Texas, where the grills looking vicious
And I know I'm kind of fast but maybe spend the night
If you with it, what's up?

[ItsRoutine & Erykah Badu:]
Baby, what's your phone number?
Tell me what's your phone number girl
Baby, eh, what's your phone number?
Baby, what's your phone number?
Oh! What's your phone number, girl?

[Erykah Badu:]
Baby, what's your phone number, babe?
Your phone number, just really want you
I really love you, I thought you'd want to
Some Willy Wonka, I-I really want you
I-I really love you, yeah
I really want to, I really want to
You got that diamond, baby, the diamonds in your mouth
You got that good smile, I want that Texas baby
Don't, don't fret baby, don't fret, baby

From the south
I got the diamond in my mouth

[Part II: Telephone]

[Erykah Badu:]
Telephone
It's Ol' Dirty
He wants to give you directions home
Said it won't be too long

Transition time to go away
Time to go away
Slow fade
Slow, slow fade oh

Dial'Afreaq lyrics - Erykah Badu

Scientists found the cause of the world sudden dying population of bees is related to cell phones
The bees sense cell phone signals transmitted when the phones ring
Causing them to emit heavy buzzing noises
This frequency confuses the bees, making them fly erratically
Bees use the earth's magnetic field as a compass, but their navigation is now compromised by cell phone radiation
Making it impossible for them hoes to find their way back to the hive
It is unlikely that the world will ever, ever, ever relinquish the convenience of cell phones
Plus how we gon' call Tyrone to help us come get our shit

Here I am, Miss Badu
Not Big Sean, but I don't fuck with you
Shall I go or shall I come?
Live from Badubutron, Nubian Phenomenon
On and On and Mama's Gun
Underwater ill motherfucker from the other sun
214, all on my phone
We're from Dallas, baby, freak freak zone
Freak freak zone
Freak freak zone
Here I am, Miss Badu
Not Big Sean, but I don't fuck with you
Shall I go or shall I come?
Live from Badubutron, Nubian Phenomenon
On and On and Mama's Gun
Underwater ill motherfucker from the other sun
214, all on my phone
We're from Dallas, baby, freak freak zone

Ya yeet ya ya
Ya yeet ya ya
Underwater ill motherfucker from the other sun
Live from Badubutron, Nubian Phenomenon
Underwater ill motherfucker from the other son
Live from Badubutron, Nubian Phenomenon

I'll Call U Back lyrics - Erykah Badu

I'm in the kitchen
I'm cooking and mixing
And fixing the sauces
And I'll call you back
Running around in the city
I run it, I like it
I'm busy, so I'll call you back
Flipping the switches
And bitches, come witness
The joy and the feelings
And I'll call you back
Never the life of the party
But I get it started
It's business and
I'll call you back

It's business, we've been this
It's business, we've been this and I'll call you back
It's business, it's business
It's business, it's business and I'll call you back
It's business, we've been this
It's business, we've been this and I'll call you back
It's business, it's business
It's business, it's business and I'll call you

Back, back, back, back, back, back, back, back, back
Back, back, back, back, back, back, back, back, back
Back, back, back, back, back, back, back, back, back
And I'll call you back, back, back, back, back
Back, back, back, back, back, back, back, back

Hello lyrics lyrics - Erykah Badu (feat. André 3000)

[Erykah Badu:]
Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello

[André 3000:]
Okay, challenge
Leave your phone unlocked and right side up
Walk out the room without throwin' your bitch off balance
It's either on or off, ain't no in between when it's valid
I seem to wanna talk more and more 'bout what really matters
I've seen my aura hop out my torso and hit her backwards
Flip, watchin' you skip down my corridor, fuck a ballad
Don't need shit on the side no more, all entreé, fuck a salad
I often have awesome thoughts of tossin' this softer palate
So when we fall any wall, any stall, any crawl, any pause
Any scar, any tar, any dark will dissolve, kill them all
Build-A-Bear, build them all, build it where it won't fall
Give it all, give it my all, yeah
Don't wear any drawers, any bra, anymore, in it raw, isn't it raw?
I'm in awe, I'm involved, common law, cummin' on stomach wall
Kermit frog jump off London fog
Bridges in the midst of call girls my woman calls
Unicorn, you my porn

I don't know
I don't know
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
I don't know
Will this bitch click over for me?
I mean will this woman click over for me?
Over for me? Over for me?
Is it over for me? Over for me? Over for me?
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
I don't know
Is this bitch gettin' over on me?
If I go there will she go there with me?
Should I, I not be so open, I mean?
Open, I mean? You know what I mean?
Know what I mean?
I don't know
I don't know I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know (I don't know)
Will this bitch click over for me?
I mean will this woman click over for me?
Over for me? Over for me?
Is it over for me? Over for me? Over for me?
I don't know
I don't know, I don't know
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
I don't know
Is this bitch gettin' over on me?
If I go there will she go there with me?
Should I, I not be so open, I mean?
Open, I mean? You know what I mean?
Know what I mean?

[Erykah Badu:]
Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hey, hello, hello

Hello, it's me, it's me, baby
I thought about us for a long, long time
Maybe I think too much but something's wrong
Something that said it doesn't last too long, too long
Maybe I shouldn't think of you as mine, mine, mine, mine, mine
But I can't help it, baby

[André 3000:]
See you, see you
I see it that you want, as much as I do you
I take for granted, that you're always there
I take for granted, that you just don't care
And sometimes
It's just too hard to see it through, babe
And that's why

[Erykah Badu & André 3000:]
It's important to me
That you know you are free
'Cause I never want to make you change
For me, babe
Don't change, don't change, squirrel
For me, babe
Don't change, don't change, squirrel
For me, babe
Don't change, don't change, squirrel
For me, babe
Don't change, don't change, squirrel
For me, babe
Don't change, don't change, squirrel
For me, babe
Don't change, don't change, squirrel
For me, babe
Don't change, don't change, squirrel
For me, babe
Don't change, don't change, squirrel
For me, babe
Don't change, don't change, squirrel
For me, babe
Don't change, don't change, squirrel
For me, babe
Don't change, don't change, squirrel
For me, babe
Don't change, don't change, squirrel
For me, babe
Don't change, don't change, squirrel
For me, babe
Don't change, don't change, squirrel
For me, babe

Come And See Badu (Remix) lyrics - Erykah Badu (feat. PartyNextDoor)

[Erykah Badu:]
Doesn't make sense now
Shit just got real, time to light an incense now
Ya hear me talkin' 'bout we a lot, oh, I speak French now
Crew shit, pants down, and takin' many hits now
Ya hit me up like "Do you wanna hang right now?"
I'm on the Southside off of Martin Luther King right now
Do ya own a watch; do ya know what time it is right now?
It's after 2 AM and that's asking a lot of me right now

All I'm talkin' 'bout is come and see me for once
Come and see me for once
You ain't ever come to me, you ain't ever come to me
All I'm askin' you is come see me for once
Come and see me for once
You ain't ever come to me
You ain't ever come to me

[PARTYNEXTDOOR:]
I been up for two whole days thinking what I did to keep you going
Thumbing through the voicemails that you left me telling me where I went wrong
I'll admit I'm sorry when I feel I'm truly sorry
Things change, people change, feelings change too
Never thought the circumstances woulda changed you
You said you never traded no, yeah you said that
And I believed you when they told me don't, yeah thought you meant that
But either way you're still invited and I can't even lie to you

[PARTYNEXTDOOR & Erykah Badu:]
Swear these days all you say is come and see me for once
Come and see me for once
You don't ever come to me, you don't ever come to me
All she hit me with is come and see me for once
Come and see me for once
You don't ever come to me, you don't ever come to me

[Erykah Badu:]
Come to me
Come to me
Ooh

[PARTYNEXTDOOR & Erykah Badu:]
All she talkin' 'bout is come and see me for once
Come and see me for once
You don't ever come to me, you don't ever come to me
All she ever say is come and see me for once
Come and see me for once
You don't ever come to me, you don't ever come to me

Everything lyrics - Erykah Badu

(originally by Misia)

Like evil passing in the dead of night
You never know how lonely love can be
Through everything the miracle you were waiting for
Could have been standing there beside you all the time
The loneliness I never thought I'd know
Grew deeper as each moment disappeared
This time I think I'm really, really over you
But it all comes back to me again
And it killed me when I saw you make her smile, oh child
You know it hurt for a while, oh child

Oh you mean the world to me
Why'd you always have to make me sad yeah?
You'd never know how many nights I've cried
But that's behind us and I can't look back
You're everything, you're everything, yes
I'm so much stronger now, more than you'll ever know
You're everything, you're everything, yes
Don't want your lies; don't want your sympathy, all I want is you
It's you, everything

The clock had stopped; we had no way to know
How do we count forever in a day?
In time, in deep, a place that's far away
Is where I wanna go and be with you
I wanna say, "Come on, let's go, yeah me with you"
No matter where you go, I want you to know

You mean the world to me
Why'd u always have to make me sad yeah?
How many nights I've cried
But that's behind us and I can't look back
You're everything, you're everything, yes
I'm so much stronger now more than you'll ever know
My love for you helps me go on
It gives me strength even when I walk alone
Oh...Oh... [Repeat]

Everything...said that you everything
Everything...said that you everything
Everything...said that you everything
Everything...said that you everything
Everything...said that you everything
Everything...said that you everything
Oh
You don't even know what you did babe
Feel so much better babe
90 pounds lighter babe
Tears bring joy... Tears bring joy
You didn't know what you had when you had what you had babe
No hard feelings yeah

Tempted lyrics - Erykah Badu & James Poyser

(originally by Squeeze)
(from "The Photograph" soundtrack)

I bought a toothbrush, some toothpaste
A flannel for my face
Pajamas, a hairbrush
New shoes and a case
I said to my reflection
"Let's get out of this place"
Passed the churches and the steeples
The laundry on the hill
Billboards and the buildings
Memories of it still
Keep calling and calling
But forget it all, I know I will

Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
What's been going on
Now that you have gone
There's no other
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered

I'm at the car park, the airport
The baggage carousel
(The people keep on grindin')
Ain't wishing I was well
I said it's no occasion
(It's no story I could tell)
At my bedside empty pocket
A foot without a sock
Your body gets much closer
I fumble for the clock
Alarmed by the seduction
I wish that it would stop

Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
What's been going on
Now that you have gone
There's no other
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered

I bought a novel, some perfume
A fortune all for you
(A fortune all for you)
Though it's not my conscience
That hates to be untrue
I asked of my reflection
Tell me what is there to do?

Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
What's been going on
There's no other
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
There's no other

This Bitter Land lyrics - Nas (with Erykah Badu)

(from "The Land" soundtrack)

This bitter land
Watered with my soul
The fruit it bears
Leaves me so cold
This bitter land
Does nothing for love
This bitter land
Brings pain from above, oh-oh

Yeah, running on the concrete across the train tracks
The devil is behind me
In the ghetto where's you'll find me, it's where I stays at
Cop shot us up, he get a medal then retire
But it never will define me
Write a letter to the president, whoever in control of the society
Tell 'em stop riding me, stop driving us into a suicidal ideology
Tryna feed my seeds
Getting high on weed, study my degrees
Stay fly, getting paper
With some dead white people faces in the circle of spaces around the green
I'ma lean, taking Percs it's a bitter Earth
Is a nigga cursed? Am I blessed? See what I mean
It's a test, life is a test
Life is like a hood, hard
Trying not to fall between the cracks
In the cracks it's so dark, and the dark
Seems more appealing than the light in the land
Where you gotta fight
Catch a body in the night, we need a plan
To survive, to survive the land
Survive the storm, when it comes through
Either you're busy living or busy dying, look what it's come to
Look what it's come to, so what you're gonna do?

This bitter land is far too real
This bitter land, it does not heal
Cause in the land skies are grey
But we fight the storms that come our way
A boy who strives to be a man
Must push to lead with all he can
Oh, this bitter land
Oh, bitter land
Oh, oh, oh, ooh
This bitter land, can't stop my fight
This bitter land

Look what it's come to
So what you gonna do?
What you gonna do?
(My land)

20 Feet Tall Lyrics – Erykah Badu

My love what did I do
to make you fall so far from me
And now I can recall
Cause of the fall selective memory
Then you you built a wall
a 20 foot wall so I couldnt see
But if I get off my off my knees
thenI might recall Im 20 feet tall

Im 20 feet tall [repeat 2x]

My love, what did I do
to make you fall, so far from me
And now, I can recall
Cause of the fall, selective memory
Then you, you built a wall
a 20 foot wall so I couldnt see
But if I get off my off my knees
I might recall Im 20 feet tall

Im 20 feet tall [repeat 4x]

Window Seat Lyrics – Erykah Badu

So, presently
I'm standing here right now
You're so demanding
Tell me what you want from me

Concluding, concentrating
On my music, lover and my babies
Makes me wanna ask the lady
For a ticket outta town

So can I get a window seat?
Don't want nobody next to me
I just want a ticket outta town
A look around and a safe touch down

Window seat
Don't want nobody next to me
I just want a chance to fly
A chance to cry and a long bye-bye

But I need you to want me
Need you to miss me
I need your attention
I need you next me

I need someone to clap for me
I need your direction
Somebody say, come back
Come back, baby, come back
I want you to need me

Come back, come back, baby, come back
Come back, come back, baby, come back
Come back, come back, baby, come back

So, in my mind I'm tusslin'
Back and forth 'tween here and hustlin'
I don't wanna time travel no more
I wanna be here, I'm thinking

On this porch I'm rockin'
Back and forth like Lightning Hopkins
If anybody speak to Scotty
Tell him, beam me up

So can I get a window seat?
Don't want nobody next to me
I just want a ticket outta town
A look around and a safe touch down

Window seat
Don't want nobody next to me
I just want a chance to fly
A chance to cry and a long bye-bye

But I need you to miss me
Need somebody come get me
I need your direction
Need your energy, yes, I do

I need someone to clap for me
Need your affection
Somebody say, come back
Come back, baby, come back
I want you to need me

Come back, come back, baby, come back
Come back, come back, baby, come back
Come back, come back, baby, come back

But can I get a window seat?
Don't want nobody next to me
I just want a ticket outta town
A look around and a safe touch down

I just need a chance to fly
A chance to cry and a long bye-bye

Fall In Love (Your Funeral) Lyrics – Erykah Badu

You better go back the way you came
Run away, if you stay
Prepare to have your shit re-arranged
The way I say
You better get on the way from here
You gonna see it's gonna be some

Slow thinking and flower bringing
If my burglar alarm starts

You don't wanna fall in love with me
See you don't wanna fall in love with me, no
See you don't wanna fall in love with me
See you don't wanna fa, la, la
Now, now, see

You ain't the worst since when I have done
But you'll do till he comes
So we gonna take this shit from the top
You gotta change jobs and change guys
You better get on the way from here
You gonna see it's gonna be some

Slow thinking and flower bringing
If my burglar alarm starts

See you don't wanna fall in love with me
See you don't wanna fall in love with me, no, no
See you don't wanna fall in love with me, no need
See you don't wanna fa, la, la
Not me, see, there's gonna be some

Slow thinking and flower bringing
If my burglar alarm starts ringing
Slow thinking and flower bringing
If my burglar alarm starts ringing

Slow thinking and flower bringing
If my burglar alarm starts ringing
Slow thinking and flower bringing
If my burglar alarm

See you don't wanna fall in love, no, no
See you don't want to fall in love with me, no need
See you don't want to fall in love with me
See you don't wanna fa, la, la

Out My Mind, Just In Time Lyrics – Erykah Badu

I'm a recovering undercover over-lover
recovering from a love I can't get over
recovering undercover over-lover
and now my common law lover thinks he wants another

And I'd lie for you
I'd cry for you
and pop for you
and break for you
and hate for you
And I'll hate you too
If you want me too
Ah, Uuu...
I'd pray for you
crochet for you
Make it from scratch for you
Leave out the last for you
Go to the store for you
Do it some more for you
Do what you want me to
Yes I'm a fool for you...

I'm a recovering undercover over-lover
recovering from a love I can't get over
(I) recovering undercover over-lover
And now my common law lover thinks he wants another

And I'd lie for you
and cry for you
and pop for you
and break for you
and hate for you
and I'll hate you too
If you want me too
I gotta do my love for you
chopped and screwed for you
Pay the rent for you
It's true it's true
Poor Badu
Thought I was through with you
Guess I'm a fool for you...

Could this be
Love from high
New frontier
Whose this guy
Your so wise
I'm so good
Like summertime
You'd had it all
Build a wall
Ten feet tall
Now I laugh at it all
Out my mind
Just in time
Never knew...
I was blind
What it through
I can't see there
Mama say
Let there be
Easily
Said and done
I can't feel
I am numb
Bitter dream
Fruit so raw
Winter cold
Let me out
I know you
Do you hear me

Out my mind,
just in time

Oho I...
Oho I...
Oho I...
Oho I...
Yeah
Man...
This This
I'm so addicted
I can't quit
Oh
I follow this, Yeah.
It's time for me to make some steps
Easy to blame somebody else
But not this time
But not this time
But not this time
But not this
No
But not this time
But not this time
But not this time
But not this
No
But not this time...
But not this time
But not this
No
But not this time...
But not this time
But not this
No
20 feet out of ashes I can rise
Just like birds and children
I can fly
And I'll take my phoenix flight
And you can't take mine
but you can try, ah no
But not this time
But not this time
But not this time
But not this
No
But not this time
But not this time
But not this time
But not this
No
But not this time...
But not this time
But not this
No
But not this time
But not this time
But not this time
But not this
Hey
On and on
I seem to go
Round and round I seem to go
always had the antidote
looking for the Holy Ghost
Found him in the missing note
sinking in a holy boat
Round and round
I seem to go
Round and round...(round)...and round
Oho I ...
Oho I...
Oho I...
Yeah,
guess it's time to grab a coat
evolution time to grow
Ego trying to block the door
Might not have nowhere to go
I finally got a leading role
introducing super dope
Staring in her episode
Hello, new world
out my mind.

Jump Up In The Air (Stay There) Lyrics – Erykah Badu (feat. Lil Wayne, Bilal)

[Erykah Badu - Chorus]
I know you want to
Jump up in the air and stay there
[repeated]

Jumped up out my seat
I know you want to
Something musta got n me
I know you want to
Church neva felt this good before
I know you want to
'Cept I was at the club
Oh Oh

Bounce Hey come on
I know you want to

I know you want to reach to the higher level
Much further from the devil
Until you feelin the weather
[repeated]

[Chorus]

[Lil Wayne]
Hi - GH20 - now or never
My level far from the devil
Have some manners say hello to to angels
And watch out for Uranus
I go nuts like a Danish
Then vanish into thin air
And stay in there
This is D Carter better bring ya swimwear
Huh, but I'm shallow and when ya this high
Everybody else is balow, oops I meant below
Mijo, zero degreeyo, frio
Get into your soul like Neyo, weeyo
Oh I meant ohwee or is it oohwee
Truly I don't give a fuck I am on the ceiling stuck
Like a fan full of dust
Like her hand full of bucks
I'm spending like crazy
I'm in Wayne's World
Where the women like ladies
And you don't need a telescope to see Weezy F baby

[Erykah Badu]
We don't give a fuck
We're on the ceiling stuck
Like a fan full of dust
Like a hand full of bucks
We're spending like crazy
[repeated]

[Chorus]

Me Lyrics – Erykah Badu

Everything around you see
The Ankhs, the wraps, the plus degrees
And yes even the mysteries
Its all me
Sometimes it hard to move you see
When you growing publicy
But if I have to chose between
I chose me

Had 2 babies different dudes
And for them both my luv was true
This is my last interview, oooh
Hey there's me, ooh
This year I turned 36
Damn it seems it came so quick
My ass and legs have gotten thick yea
Its all me
I use to pray to God above
But now Im filled with so much luv
But even if the world cant see
Its still me
Will I escape this vanity?
Or will I keep on smoking trees?
But I'll just let it go and be, be, be Me

Ah, leave it alone babe
Well well well
Ah oh, leave it alone babe
Just being me
Ah, leave it alone babe
Well well well
Ah oh, leave it alone babe
Just being me

Sometimes I dont know what to say
So many leaders to obey
But I was born on saviors day, yes
So I chose me
And in the world of greed and hate
They may try to erase my face
But millions spring up in my place
Ooh, believe in me
As sure is all and all is one
We all should grow before its done
So I salute you Farrakan, yes
Cuz you are me
Before I end this crazy dream
Before I take one for the team
Yo ass done matched the gasoline, yes
That's Collene

My People Lyrics – Erykah Badu

My eyes are green
Cos I eat a lot of vegetables
It don't have nothing to do with your new friend
[x3]
I don't care, I swear
I'm too through with you, I am
You don't mean nothing to me
So go ahead and be with your friend
My eyes are green
Cos I eat a lot of vegetables
It don't have nothing to do with your new friend
[x3]
I'm insecure
But I can't help it
My mind says move on
My heart lacks behind
But I don't love you any more
I'm so insecure
Never knew that love did this
Ooh, ooh
I can't remember the last time I felt this way
About somebody
You've done something to my mind
And I can't control it
But I don't love you any more
Yes I do, I do
Loving you is wrong baby
Ooh, ooh
La-di-da
Dum-dee-da-da
Dum-didi-da-da-da
Dum-didi-da-dum-di
I'm so confused
You tried to trick me yeah
Ooh, ooh, oh
Never knew that love could hurt like this
Never thought I would but I got dissed
Makes me feel so sad and hurt inside
Feel embarrased so I want to hide
Silly me I thought your love was true
Change my name to Silly E. Badu
Before I heal, it's gonna be a while
I know it's gonna be a while, chil'
[ad-libs]
I hope it's not too late
Too late, too late, too late
Feeling insecure
Your love has got me sore
I don't want no more
Oh, oh
It's too late, oh, oh ooh, ooh
I'm sorry I love you
At first when you was cool
You told me you loved me too, ooh
And then you lost your love [x3]
You wanted me to go away
But I can't go
See I can't leave, it's too late
I can't leave, it's too late [x3]
Just make love to me
Just one more time and then you'll see
I can't believe I made a desperate plea
Believe me yeah, yeah, no, oh
You see I can't leave, it's too late
I can't leave, it's too late
Don't you know, I can't leave, it's too late
Can't go no where, no
It's too late [x4]
Yeah
Come on babe
Don't you want be strong with me
You told me we could have a family
Want to run to me when you're down and low
But times get tough and there you go
Out the door, you wanna run again
Open your arms and you'll come back in
Wanna run cos you say you're afraid, afraid
Never knew what a friendship
Never knew how to really love
You can't be what I need you to
And I don't know what is up with you
I know our love will never be the same
But I can't stand the growing pains

The Cell Lyrics – Erykah Badu

Girl came through, the light skin honey with the cinnamon smell,
Girlwas so enticing, baby, make a n**** choose hell
Momma hopped up on cocaine
Daddy on space ships with no brain
Sister gone numb the pain the same
Why same DNA cell
She was turned out on shine new things (diamond gold chains diamond gold rings)
Center-fold spread, she trying to do things
See she be on that cough syrup in coke cans
20-inch-rim-man with no land, her p****gone numb the pain the same
Why same DNA strand
We're not well
We're not well
We can't tell...
Brenda done died with no name
Nickel bag coke to the brain
Will they ever find the vaccine?
S***ty-damn-damn-baby-bang
Rich man got the double barrell,
Po' man got his back to the door

Twinkle Lyrics – Erykah Badu

They don't know their language
They don't know their God
They take what their given
Even whan it feels Odd
They say their grandfathers and grandmothers work hard for nothing
And we still in this ghetto
So they end up in prisons
They end up in blood

They keep us uneducated,
Sick and depressed
(they end up in blood)
Doctor I'm addicted now
I'm under arrest
(they end up in blood)
We makin' mo' money than a muthaf**ka
(they end up in blood)
With no choices there's no hope for us
(they end up in blood)

Started with a rhyme from old ancent times
Decedents of warlocks,
Witches with ill glitches
Children of the matrix be hittin' them car switches
Seen some Virgin Virgos hanging out with Venus Bitches

Cause
They don't know their language
They don't know their God
They take what their given
Even whan it feels Odd
They say their grandfathers and grandmothers work hard for nothing
And we still in this ghetto
So they end up in prisons
They end up in blood
They keep us uneducated,
Sick and depressed
(they end up in blood)
Doctor I'm addicted now I'm under arrest
(they end up in blood)
We makin' mo' money than a muthaf**ka
(they end up in blood)
With no choices there's no hope for us
(they end up in blood)

The Grind Lyrics – Erykah Badu

Every day is a struggle
How to hustle some doe
If you was raised in the hood
Well then you already know
It be days that be good
But mostly money be slow
Have you ever been hungry before?

Steady on the grind Stead on the grind
'Cause I got to make it happen
My family depending on me

Steady on the grind Steady on the grind
'Cause I got to make it happen
Ain't nobody gone do it for me

Ha ooh wa ooh ha ooh wa ooh
Ha ooh wa ooh ha ooh wa ooh

Steady on the grind
Daily on the grind
Money on my mind
So heavy on my mind So heavy on my mind

Mommy got a job makin' bout six-somethin' an hour
She became the breadwinner when daddy was unemployed
Working forty-plus hours and kissing ass
Seeming like the only honest way she can get some cash
She struggglin' - she don't know I be hustlin' pulling my own weight
I be hearing them fuss and fightin' at night mad late
Over economics; it's logic meaning they don't got it
Living in the projects, money's the only object
She makes $280 a week, standing on her feet
The ends aint even meeting - the family ain't eatin'
Cause if taxes is 10%, and the rest if for the rent
Then crime is what u get and niggaz is innocent
See it really ain't about if you eatin' or not eatin'
It's breathin' or not breathin' - freedom or not freedom
'nother day, 'nother way, 'nother dollar spent
Gotta make a revolution out of fifteen cent.

Might need it for more Yeyo
We need this money
Just in case we need to
Make a run
Gotta keep the clip in mama's gun
Or run...

We like to keep the car runnin'
We try to keep the bitch humin'
In case the sweeper boyz are comin'
Runnin' runnin', We like to keep the car runnin'
We try to keep the bitch humin'
In case the sweeper boyz are comin'
Runnin' runnin'

[Chorus 2x]
Because they got the block on lock

Leaves you nervous and shakin
Cause at night you're awake and
Thinkin bout lives that you've taken
All the love you've forsaken
In yo zone
Niggas gon' get they fuckin head blown

DANGER
You're in DANGER
No hard feelings right or wrong
Weak or strong, I don't make the laws
In yo zone niggas gon' get they fuckin
Head blown

Love Of My Life Lyrics – Erykah Badu (feat. Common)

Bring it over here and let's go back
Way back
Ooh...
Way back, yeah

I met him when I was a
Little girl, he gave me
He gave me poetry
And he was my first

But in my heart I knew I
Wasn't the only one
'Cause when the tables turned
He had to break up

Whenever I got lonely
Or needed some advice
He gave me his shoulder
His words were very nice

But that is all behind me
'Cause now there is no other
My love is his and his is mine
A friend became the

Love of my life
You are my friend
Love of my life
I can depend
Love of my life
Without you, baby
It feels like a simple true love

Hope this s*** ain't clear

A freak-freak, y'all, and ya don't stop
To the beat y'all and ya don't stop
A freak-freak

Or could it be that it was
All just so simple then
A teenage lover who said
He's just a friend

He moved around and we kept
In touch through his friend Mike
The world was young and he knew
We couldn't rush but

Whenever I got lonely
Or needed some advice
He gave me his shoulder
His words were very nice

But that is all behind me
'Cause now there is no other
My love is his and his is mine
A friend became the

Love of my life
You are my friend
Love of my life
A dude I can depend, yeah, yeah
Love of my life
Feels like a simple true love, yeah

Hope this s*** ain't clear

Y'all know how I met her
We broke up and got back together
To get her back I had to sweat her
Thought she roll with bad boys forever in many ways
Them boys may be better, to I had to let her (Never)
She needed cheddar and I understood that
Lookin' for cheese, that don't make her a hood rat (Rat)
In fact she's a queen to me, her light beams on me
I love it when she sings to me
It's like that now

Love of my life
Ooh, you know you rock my world and
Love of my life
You be boy and I'll be girl and
Love of my life
We don't stop until the break of dawn, ooh...

Love of my life
Ooh, you know you rock my world and
Love of my life
You be boy and I'll be girl and
Love of my life
Yeah...
