Yeah
|
Listen carefully
|
Listen to these words
|
|
Baby take a minute let me sit you down
|
Been waiting for the time and the time is now
|
I think you should decide where you wanna be
|
Running in the streets or living here with me
|
Baby take a step back and look around
|
Gonna run yourself like you do the ground
|
You're not invincible and the fact is
|
Nothing's guaranteed but the darn taxes?
|
|
Control your pebble before he turn to stone
|
Boy you better listen for you're all alone
|
When the money's spent and all your friends are gone
|
Then you're gonna realize, you're only flesh and bone (flesh and bone)
|
Then you're gonna realize, you're only flesh and bone
|
|
You know
|
|
Look into my eyes and tell me what you see
|
Is there any hope that you could ever be
|
More than just a fish in the sea
|
Cause baby after all if you get cut you're gonna bleed
|
Try to understand what I'm telling you
|
This is not a game don't you play the fool
|
I'm begging won't you hear my plea
|
This is not a theory it's reality
|
|
Control your pebble before he turn to stone
|
Boy you better listen for you're all alone
|
When the money's spent and all your friends are gone
|
Then you're gonna realize, you're only flesh and bone (flesh and bone)
|
Then you're gonna realize, you're only flesh and bone
|
(Then you're gonna realize)
|
|
Living in this cold world never easy
|
"Life ain't no sweet bread" that's what my momma told me
|
I'm getting by and now I see what she mean
|
You need to settle down and stop living so extreme
|
I'm your woman and you know I'll always love you
|
I'll never do a single thing to exploit you
|
Life is so precious never take it for granted
|
How can I make you understand this baby
|
|
Control your pebble before he turn to stone
|
Boy you better listen for you're all alone
|
When the money's spent and all your friends are gone
|
Then you're gonna realize, you're only flesh and bone (flesh and bone)
|
Then you're gonna realize, you're only flesh and bone
|
(Then you're gonna realize)
