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

See you don't wanna fall in love with me, no
See you don't wanna fall in love with me

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

See you don't wanna fall in love with me, no, no
See you don't wanna fall in love with me, no need

Slow thinking and flower bringing

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)

Jumped up out my seat

Much further from the devil
Until you feelin the weather
[repeated]

[Chorus]

[Lil Wayne]
Hi - GH20 - now or never

Have some manners say hello to to angels
And watch out for Uranus

Then vanish into thin air
And stay in there

Huh, but I'm shallow and when ya this high
Everybody else is balow, oops I meant below

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

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]
