"Contagious"
(feat. R Kelly & Chante Moore)



[Verse 1:]
It's 2 A.M. I'm just getting in about to check my message,
no one has called but my homies and some billcollectors.
Cellular when somebody wants to borrow money
I two-way her she don't hit me back something is funny.
So I called her mother's house and asked has she seen my baby.
Roll my six around looking for that missing lady.
Got back in turned the TV on and caught the news
then I put my hand on my head cause I'm so confused.
And then I turned the TV down
cause I thought I heard a squicky sound,
somethings going on upstairs
and I know nobody else lives here
"bump bump bump" as I get closer to the stairways all I hear
then I hear my babies voice in my ear screaming out....

[Chorus:]
You're contagious, touch me baby, give me what you got
(and then a man said) sexy lady drive me crazy, drive me wild
(And I just can't believe this shit)

[Verse 2:]
I ran downstairs looked in the closet looking for that ooo,
said a prayer cause only God knows what I'm gonna do
what I saw was enough to drive a Preacher wild
I'm in the hall contemplating "not in my own damn house".
Who would have thought she was creeping with another man?
The down low happening to me all over again
and then I turned the TV down
'cause I know I heard a squicky sound, something going on upstairs
'cause I know no one else lives here
"bump bump bump" as I get closer to the stairways all I hear,
then I hear my babies voice in my ear screamin....

[Chorus]

[Verse 3:]
What the hell is going on between the sheets in my home?
Baby wait let me explain before you start to point your cain.
Girl I'm about to have a fit
"oh it's about to be some shit!"
How did I get in to this? Should have never came home with this bitch!
Low down dirty woman, back to where you come from
"but baby wait" but wait my ass
hit the streets your ass is grass!
Now Mista Biggs before you done
"Wait how you know my name son?"
"Honey wait I was gonna tell you"
"Move this cat looks real familiar"
Hmmm?!?! Now don't I know you from somewhere a long time ago?
No, no, I don't think so.
Yeah, yeah, I feel I know you brother very well.
No, no, you've mistaken me for somebody else.
"Frank" "SHUT UP!" "Can't you see two men are talking?
"But" thought I told your ass to get to walking!
Now I think you all better leave this place,
'cause I'm about to catch a case.

[Chorus]

You're contagious, touch me baby, give me what you got
You're contagious, touch me baby, give me what you got
You're contagious, touch me baby, give me what you got
You're contagious, touch me baby, give me what you got

"Don't Let Me Be Lonely Tonight"

"Don't Let Me Be Lonely Tonight"


Do me wrong, do me right, do me right, baby
Tell me lies but hold, hold me tight
And save your goodbyes till the mornin' light
But don't let me be lonely tonight
Say goodbye, woman, say hello, hello, hello
Sure enough good to see you, oh, but it's time to go
Don't say, yes, but please, don't say no
I don't wanna be lonely tonight
Go away then damn you
Go and do as you please, go and do as you please, girl
You ain't gonna see me gettin' down on my knees
'Cause I'm undecided and your heart's been divided
You've been turnin' my world upside down, oh babe
Do me wrong, do me right, right now baby
Go on and tell me lies but hold me tight
Save your goodbyes for the mornin' light
But don't let me be lonely tonight
Save your goodbyes for the mornin' light
Lord, I don't wanna be lonely tonight, no, no, no, no

"Fight The Power (Part 1 & 2)"

"Fight The Power (Part 1 & 2)"


Time is truly wastin', there's no guarantee, yeah
Smile is in the makin', we got to fight the powers that be
Got so many voices, saying all the same, yeah,
Killing up all around me, faces full of pain

I tried to play my music, they say my music's too loud
I tried talking about it, I got the big runaround
And when I rolled with the punches I got knocked on the ground
By all this bullshit going down, hey

Time is truly wastin', there's no guarantee, yeah
Smile is in the makin', we got to fight the powers that be
I don't understand it, people wanna say yeah


Those that got the answers, red tape in the way
I could tend to it easy, let's just have some fun naw, naw
Seekin' my satisfaction, keeps me on the run

I tried to play my music, say my music's too loud
I tried talking about it, I got the big runaround
And when I rolled with the punches I got knocked on the ground
By all this bullshit going down, oooh

Time is truly wastin', there's no guarantee, yeah
Smile is in the makin', we got to fight the powers that be
Fight it baby, yeah, woo, hey, even you and I can fight the power
Fight it, fight the power

"Fire And Rain"
(originally by James Taylor)



(Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you again)
(Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you again)

I always thought
(Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you again)
I will see you again
(Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you again)

I always thought
(Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you again)
I will see you again
(Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you again)

Now I see fire
(Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you again)
I've seen rain
(Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you again)

Seen sunny days
(Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you again)
I thought would never end
(Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you again)

I always thought
(Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you again)
When will I see you again
(Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you again)
I always thought

Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone
Suzanne the plans they made put an end to you
I walked out this mornin' and I wrote down this song
Now I just can't remember who to send it to

I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again

Girl I thought that I'd see you
Girl I thought that I'd see you
Girl I thought that I'd see you

So won't you like down on me Jesus
You gotta help me make a stand
You just got to see me through another day
My body's achin' and my time is at hand
And I just can't make it any other way

I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you

Girl I thought that I'd see you
I thought that I'd see you
I thought I'd see you babe

Walkin' my mind back to easy times my back turned towards the sun
Lord knows when the cold wind blows it'll turn your head around
There's hours of time on the telephone line talking about things to come
Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground

Oh I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
Oh but I always thought that I'd see you again

Girl I thought I'd see you, babe
Thought that I'd see you
Thought I'd see you

I always thought
(Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you again)
When I see you again
(Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you again)

I've seen fire
(Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you again)
I've seen rain
(Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you again)

Seen sunny days
(Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you again)
I thought would never end
(Thought I'd see you)
