Mark my words, I won't back down You know nothing, when you tell me That I worship a fabricated story in the sky Throwing away decency because you can't grasp The life of peace and the voice of potency Your words are wasted on me I feel His breath and

Oh-oh, oh-oh-ooh, I'll be waitin' for you You can run, you can run So when the lights go down And the sun hits ground You should know that I won't back down (I'll be waitin' for you) Knuckles out And the guard in my mouth When you're hungry for the next

And its really cold outside You know I hate bein' alone Bet I'll get you right You know my roommates ain't home Brown skin honey, said won't you creep into my bedroom? You lookin' real good now, tell me what it do I heard you got a girl though, what's it

Won't you please look down on me? A little mercy is all I need I say, angel of mercy Angel of mercy Oh, angel of mercy I went to work this mo'nin' My foreman looked me in the eye He said, "Fella I don't know what's wrong with ya, But you look sick enough

God knows at least we try Oh, God knows We will get up and grow We can make it just in time We'll march on 'Cause every time when we fall Oh, oh, God I know I won't be on my own Even birds don't fly alone

One, Two, Three So call it what you call it I won't give it up just to save myself I should have known what I started You should know where your heart is But I don't, I won't be a part of Expectations when I grow up But I just won't be afraid of myself

Blame it on the drank, baby Pardon my behavior I'll apologize later Say sorry later Blame it on the drank, drank, drank Said if you leave with me tonight I won't judge you, no, no You know who you dealing with You know who you down (work)

When you're falling down Uh, oh oh, oh The world's not spinning 'round No, it's not all about You know I'll be around When you're falling down, falling down It won't be long my darling Pick up the phone, nobody's on it

I feel you in my bones, oh oh oh oh From my head down to my toes, oh oh oh oh And I know it's a long way down While we're caught in between Won't you stay in the middle with me? Hold me close And don't ever let me go In your heart I found a home
