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)
