My People


My eyes are green
Cause I eat
A lot of vegetables
It don‘t have nothing to do
With your new friend (3x)
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
Cause I eat
A lot of vegetables
It don‘t have nothing to do
With your new friend (3x)
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‘

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 (3x)
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 (3x)
Just make love to me
Just one more time
And then you‘ll see
I can‘t believe
I made a desparate 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 (4x)
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 cause 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.
