VERSE 1: BY THE WAY YOU DRESS
BY THE WAY YOU TALK
BY THE FRIENDS YOU KEEP

I CAN TELL IF IT'S MEANT TO BE

GOTTA KNOW BEFORE I GO TO FAR (GOTTA KNOW B4 I GO 2 FAR)
I CAN TELL IT, I CAN TELL IT
 
VERSE 2: WOULD YOU RAISE YOUR HAND?
WOULD YOU RAISE YOUR VOICE?
DO YOU ACT BRAND NEW, IN FRONT OF YOUR BOYS?
DID YOU FINISH SCHOOL?
OR DID YOU DROP-OUT?
HAVE YOU OPENED UP, A BANK ACCOUNT?
AND IF I HANG OUT
AT THE END OF THE WEEK
DO I DETECT A JEALOUS STREAK?
DO YOU GO FOR SELF?
OR YOU AIM TO PLEASE?
CAUSE I CAN TELL
FROM I SEE.

Monifah - Free Again Lyrics

Monifah - Free Again Video

Hmm, mmm
I cherished the simple days
There were no problems to complicate life
No bad relations to weigh me down
Cause I feel so different now
 
If I could put all my pain today
Inside a bottle to float away
I would return to the time when I
I could just spread my wings and fly
 
1 I wanna be free again and fly away
To the place where love is
And there's no pain
Now I cross my heart and I hope to fly
In the sky so high
All my cares I leave behind
 
It don't matter, no matter what comes
I wanna go to a place where I can run
Free from the heartache, from the heartbreak
From whatever makes me wanna get away
 
I need some time to free my mind
There's no telling what I might find inside
I might find myself
I wanna spread my wings and fly
 
Repeat 1
 
I don't need nobody else to find myself
All by myself, I need to be
All I wanna do (All I wanna do)
Is find my way back to myself
To heal myself, wanna build myself
To reveal myself for the world to see
That I'm free (That I'm free)
Free again
 
(Monifah's daughter) (Monifah)
Mommy (Yes baby)
I wanna go to Disney World and to the movies
And roller blading
And I wanna go all around the world
You know what mommy
Wherever you wanna go, I wanna go
I want you to be happy
Cause I love you mommmy
And I love you very, very much
 
(Monifah)
I love you very much too baby
And I'm your best friend, forever
Remember that
 
Repeat 1 until end

Monifah - Nobody's Body Lyrics

Monifah - Nobody's Body Video

Original, original
And I say, shake it down
Original, shake it down
 
1 I don't want nobody's body wanting me
All I want is somebody to hold on to
I don't want nobody's body wanting me
All I want is somebody to hold onto
 
Let me tell you
I've been searching high and low
Trying to find somebody who really understands my flow
Don't want nobody who's somebody else's body
I just want someone who knows all about me
 
Repeat 1
 
Every day and every night
I often long for someone to treat me right
Lonely times are here again
But I have faith that better days will soon begin
 
And I get tired of somebody else's man holding me
I need a man who's single and free, yeah
Someone to call my own
To be there when I get home
To understand me and love me for me
 
Repeat 1
Repeat 1
Repeat 1
 
I don't want nobody's somebody, hey, hey
I don't want nobody's somebody, hey, hey
 
I don't want nobody's somebody, hey, hey
I don't want nobody's somebody, hey, hey
 
Repeat 1
Ad lib until fade
