Can't Lie

I can't lie to myself anymore
Pretending that you really care
Cuz when I desperately need you
You're never even there
The comfort of your voice
is all I need to hear
But your voicemail answers
And again, you're nowhere near

I've been faking this smile
concealing my cries of sorrow
But truth be heard,
I'm starting over, starting tomorrow

Unlike you, I can't lie
Unlike you, I damn sure tried
Your true colors are starting to show
And they sure ain't the colors of the rainbow

Perfect Rockin'

Star studded jacket & leather jeans
She walked through the bar lookin' damn mean
Locked on stare in my direction
Ooh my myy, she's the definition of perfection

Our eyes focused on each other
She gave me a wink, one eye then the other
The corners of her mouth started to smile
Then she puckered her lips & blew me a kiss

She's what I like to call perfect rockin'
My perfect rockin' baby girl
Mmhmm babygirl's rockin' the groove
A groove so smooth, perfect rockin'
Perfect rockin' baby girl

Well, my imagination ran straight to her
Then I coulda swore that I heard her purr
As her icy hands slipped up the shirt on my back
I felt her hot breath warm the skin on my neck

She grabbed me...by the hand
Took me on a trip to her promise land
Of happily-ever-after.. again & again
She's what I call my perfect rockin' woman

Fool's Madness

Hey there sugar, how are ya doin'?
Excuse my bad memory but what's your name?
Oh, you're here for the show, yeah i'm so glad you came
Hey, wasn't it you about two years ago?
You gave me no faith, told me no hope?
It was right bout then, I turned and walked away
Cuz Iknew we'd meet again down the road someday
So here we are, standing face to face
Oh let me find the right words cuz Igot somethin to say

Imma tell you somethin, somethin real loud
People like you are called bring-me-downs
"Dreams are not to follow, your heart is saying wrong"
Well hunny I didn't listen and before too long
Your jibber-jabberish is the definition
Of a man tryna ruin a woman's ambition
Your negativity were the fighting word
So here's your punch back in the heart, where it hurts
Strike one! You're out! How loud do I have to shout?!
I don't give any second chances
To a man with the words of a Fool's Madness

Here's a chair darlin, oh please take a seat
I'd sure hate to make ya stand on your feet
I'm just tryna be nice so here's a fair warning
You're gonna feel your soul rock til tomorrow morning
I took what ya said, yeah I wrote it down
And now I'm gonna play it for this sold out crowd
What didn't break my heart is your ridiculous opinion
Cuz you create who you are and this is my way of livin

Imma tell you somethin, somethin real loud
People like you are called bring-me-downs
"Dreams are not to follow, your heart is saying wrong"
Well hunny I didn't listen and before too long
Your jibber-jabberish is the definition
Of a man tryna ruin a woman's ambition
Your negativity were the fighting word
So here's your punch back in the heart, where it hurts
Strike one! You're out! How loud do I have to shout?!
I don't give any second chances
To a man with the words of a Fool's Madness
