(Mo´ Thugs Remix)
MARIAH CAREY featuring Bone thugs-n-harmony
[Birds chirping.]
Layzie:
Over, over. Don´t break down yet, it´s over.

Over, over. Don´t break down yet, it´s over.
Over, over.

Krazie:
Steady breakin´ me on down.
Mariah:
Oooh.
Krazie:
Break, breakdown. Steady breakin´ me on down.
Break, breakdown. Steady breakin´ me on down.

Mariah:
You called yesterday to basically say that you care for me, but that you´re
just not in love.
Immediately, I pretended to be feeling similarly, and led you to believe I was
O.K. to just walk away from the one thing that´s unyeilding and sacred to me.

Mariah:
Well, I guess I´m trying to be nonchalant about it, and I´m going to extremes
to prove I´m fine without you, but in reality I´m slowly losing my mind
underneath the disguise of a smile. Gradually, I´m dying inside. Friends ask me
how I feel, and I lie convincingly, ´cause I don´t want to reveal the fact that
I´m suffering, so I wear my disguise ´til I go home at night, and turn down all
the lights, and then I break down and cry.

Mariah:
So what do you do when somebody you´re so devoted to suddenly just stops loving
you? And it seems they haven´t got a clue of the pain that rejection is putting

you through. Do you cling to your pride and sing "I will survive?" [Krayzie:
Gotta get control and roll, roll, roll on.] Do you lash out and say, "How dare
you leave this way?" Do you hold on in vain as they just slip away?

Mariah:
Well, I guess I´m trying to be nonchalant about it[Krazie: Break, breakdown. Steady
breakin´ me on down.] about it, and I´m going to extremes to prove I´m fine
without you, but in reality I´m slowly losing my mind underneath the disguise of a
smile. Gradually, I´m dying inside. Friends ask me how I feel, and I lie
convincingly, ´cause I don´t want to reveal the fact that I´m suffering, so I

wear my disguise ´til I go home at night, and turn down all the lights, and
then I break down and cry.

Wish:
Gonna break ya down, down, down, only if ya let it [Don´t let it.]. Everyday
crazy situations rockin´ my mind tryin´ to break me down, but I won´t let it.
Forget it. If ya feel the same way that I do, then let me help y´all, all
singin´ tunes, sayin´ "It´s all right, it´s all right, it´s all right, yeah."
Hopin´ for the sun, but it looks like rain, P.O.D´ed, but it´s still the same.
Came far, but it´s been a long road. Trouble´s gonna come but we gotta stay
strong. Hold on.

Krayzie:
Aw, yeah, I often feel the pressures, y´all, but nevertheless Krayzie won´t
fall. It´s over. It´s endin´ here [here]. I said it´s over. It´s endin´ here
[here], so I´ll be on my way, and maybe we can meet up in the future one day,
but for now I´m bailin´, bailin´. Bailin´, baby, gotta get up, can´t take no
more. I´m headed for the door, come and take a look into a thug humble eye.
Tell me: if we lived a lie, would our souls unite?

Layzie:
Every new day is a test for me, so I just pray the Lord for Him to bless me,

please. There´s struggles I´m goin´ through lately, breaks me down, set me
free. Let me be. Let me be. Who else do I have to rely on? Whose shoulder can a
thug go cry on? Can I get my vibe on? While you look into my eyes, you won´t
underestimate, and this soldier story, I´m´a tell you right now I´m fed up.
Wrong if I let my lead bust? Pac said keep your head up. Don´t let this world
get the best of you, I´m a stress you through it, if it´s over, over, over.
Don´t breakdown yet, it´s over.

Mariah:

to prove I´m fine without you, but in reality I´m slowly losing my mind
