This jam is dedicated to moi
|
That's right you guys it's just for...
|
|
Me, I believe in me
|
'Cause I take care of me
|
It took so long to see
|
All I really need is me
|
Faith and family
|
Has finally made me see
|
No matter what I face
|
All I need is me
|
|
Everybody says they know me better than I know myself
|
But I don't know nobody else has felt what I felt
|
Did what I did or been where I been
|
But have to defend myself again and again
|
Let it end where it begins
|
Who cares what the cause is
|
Too many bosses cause divorces
|
And I don't take losses
|
Well I play with a team
|
But I'm a Diana Ross and not a Supreme
|
You think you got me all figured out
|
Ohh so I'm so shallow
|
The only thing I'm tryin' to get is a bigger house
|
No part of my need is a company
|
Where I can hire my own people
|
To live out their dreams
|
So tell me
|
What's happenin' to all of ya'll people with low self-esteem
|
What you want me to cry on your shoulder
|
So you can turn around and laugh and talk about it when it's over
|
|
Me, I believe in me
|
'Cause I take care of me
|
It took so long to see
|
All I really need is me
|
Faith and family
|
Has finally made me see
|
No matter what I face
|
All I need is me
|
|
I done sold 30 mill, dated, then made you want it
|
When it got too convenient, I just gave it up
|
I don't need the stress
|
I don't need the pain
|
I do need the checks
|
But don't need the games
|
Ohh my how could him and I be the same
|
When the house burnt down
|
Only I made the blame
|
When the money got funny, I took it to court
|
When most of y'all scrubs
|
Wouldn't have even fought it
|
When the group had issues, I laid in thought
|
Corrected the bad news, I heard in interviews
|
How many of you really know Lisa? Not many!
|
It's not contrary, it's fear, I don't know you either
|
I'm responsible for more than you'll ever know or see
|
So many things you don't know happened because of me
|
From Blaque, to the designs of the stage, that was me
|
So how could any of ya'll be mad at me?
|
|
Me, I believe in me
|
'Cause I take care of me
|
It took so long to see
|
All I really need is me
|
Faith and family
|
Has finally made me see
|
No matter what I face
|
All I need is me
|
|
Everybody says all they want is the truth
|
Well the truth is I still got love for my group
|
But you don't really want the truth when it's concernin' you
|
You want to hear that no one's doin' better than you
|
You love to hear the pain
|
You love to hear the struggle
|
You love to know that paradise
|
Has got trouble
|
The only trouble we ever had
|
Is you bein' involved
|
You gettin' involved where you don't belong
|
When my faith started to waver it was like I was done
|
I felt like Brian McKnight I was "Back At One"
|
The only one that was
|
The only one that ever
|
The only one I need
|
The one and only me
|
Because if I hadn't told you it was on different planes
|
You would think that I meant our flights ain't the same
|
My only crime was I was so blind
|
Didn't know I had everything I wanted all the time
|
|
Me, I believe in me
|
'Cause I take care of me
|
It took so long to see
|
All I really need is me
|
Faith and family
|
Has finally made me see
|
No matter what I face
|
All I need is me
|
|
Me, I believe in me
|
'Cause I take care of me
|
It took so long to see
|
All I really need is me
|
Faith and family
|
Has finally made me see
|
No matter what I face
|
All I need is me
|
|
Me, I believe in me
|
'Cause I take care of me
|
It took so long to see
|
All I really need is me
|
Faith and family
|
Has finally made me see
|
No matter what I face
|
All I need is me
