For so long 'Cause I've been waiting for you And right now there's a war between the vanities But all I see is you and me The fight for you is all I've ever known So come home Everything I can't be

'Cause I see, sparks fly, whenever you smile Drop everything now Meet me in the pouring rain Kiss me on the sidewalk Take away the pain Get me with those green eyes, baby As the lights go down Gimme something that'll haunt me when you're not around The

No matter what I'm goin' through It's easy to see And every time I hold you The things I never told you Seem to come easily 'Cause you're everything to me But you can still believe in me 'Cause every time I look at you You're everything to me

'Cause everything I see is you And I don't want no substitute Baby, I swear it's déjà vu Know that I can't get over you Boy, I try to catch myself But I'm out of control Your sexiness is so appealing

For so long 'Cause I've been waiting for you And right now there's a war between the vanities But all I see is you and me The fight for you is all I've ever known So come home Everything I can't be

Father forgive me, 'cause I ain't perfect No, no no no Why is everything wrong? Oh I can't get it right, I always try to get it right I bumped Ether, bumped Takeover Seein' Jay and Nas on stage was hip-hop's makeover And that very day you knew niggas was

Because of you I'm me All of sudden I'm something I wasn't Because of you I see Everything I can be, lonely as history I know that I'm better when we're together I'm independent to a fault I know this well But I finally found love Without losing myself

Everything is not what it seems Because everything is not what it seems Well, you know everything's gonna be a breeze That the end will no doubt justify the means You can fix any problem at the slightest ease Yes, please Well, you might find out it'll go

Can't you find a way? You are in this too I've been talking about you to myself 'Cause there's nobody else And I want what I want And I want everything I want everything You've been sleeping for miles So what did you see?

Your heaven's trying everything To break me down 'Cause it's almost like And I can't seem to find my way home To keep me out Your heavens trying everything Another day in this carnival of souls Another nights ends, end as quickly as it goes The memories
