Go It Alone lyrics
Go It Alone
Has my mission been detected?
Wonder if my cover’s blown
Underground and unsuspected
Am I out here on my own?
When I call back to base communication breakdown
I’ve crossed enemy lines, I’m on dangerous ground
See my target ahead, almost in my hands
I can still find a way to break the password, and I’m almost home
I’ll just go it alone
Information confidential
Data labeled “classified”
Can I break through their defenses?
Make it to the other side
When I call back to base communication breakdown
I’ve crossed enemy lines, I’m on dangerous ground
See my target ahead, almost in my hands
I can still find a way to break the password, and I’m almost home
I’ll just go it alone
There’s the alarm! I must have tripped it.
They’ll be coming anytime now
Will I accomp-o-lish my mission?
Will I make it out alive?
When I call back to base communication breakdown
I’ve crossed enemy lines, I’m on dangerous ground
See my target ahead, almost in my hands
I can still find a way to break the password, and I’m almost home
I’ll just go it alone

Love Thang lyrics
Love Thang
I’ve gotta find a way
To get closer to that Love Thang
Girl, you’re the finest thang
And I’d like to get to know you better
But you’ve got to understand
I’m tryna get out the game
So, baby, if you wanna play with me
You gonna learn that’s a losing hand
If you wanna be the one I fall for
You got to understand what I want-a
I want some truth and honesty
I’m lookin’ for a real love, baby
Can you be real with me? I wanna know cause
I’ve gotta find a way
To get closer to that Love Thang
Yes, I can buy you thangs
If money makes you happy, baby.
But there’s something I’ve got to know
Would you be down for me?
Will you still be on my side
If my credit score is low?
Do you really wanna get to know me
Or are you really tryna pimp and hoe me?
I just wanna know the deal.
Are you tryna get your groove on girl
Or do you wanna make love for real? I wanna know cause
I’ve gotta find a way
To get closer to that Love Thang
I’ve gotta find a way
To get closer to that Love Thang
