Mariah Carey Feat. Bone Thugs N Harmony - Breakdown lyrics

rate me

Over, over, don't break down yet, it's over<br />

Over, over, don't break down yet, it's over<br />

Over, over, steady breakin' me on down, ooh<br />

Break, breakdown, steady breakin' me on down<br />

Break, breakdown, steady breakin' me on down<br />

<br />

You call yesterday to basically say that you care for me<br />

But that you're just not in love immediately, I pretended<br />

To feel similarly and led you to believe I was okay<br />

To just walk away from the thing that's unyielding and sacred to me<br />

<br />

Well, I guess, I'm trying to be nonchalant about it<br />

And I'm going the extremes to prove I'm fine without you<br />

But in reality, I'm slowly losing my my mind<br />

Underneath the guise of a smile gradually, I'm dying inside<br />

<br />

Friends ask me how I feel and I lie convincingly<br />

'Cause I don't want to reveal that fact that I'm suffering<br />

So I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night<br />

And turn down all the lights and then break down and cry<br />

<br />

So what do you do when somebody you're devoted to<br />

Suddenly just stops loving you<br />

And it seems they haven't got a clue<br />

Of the pain that rejection is putting you through<br />

<br />

Do you cling to your pride and sing, "I will survive"?<br />

(Gotta get control and roll, roll, roll on)<br />

Do you lash out and say "How dare you leave leave this way"?<br />

Do you hold on in vain as they just slip away?<br />

<br />

Well, I guess, I'm trying to be nonchalant about it<br />

(Break, breakdown, steady breakin' me on down)<br />

And I'm going the extremes to prove I'm fine without you<br />

But in reality I'm slowly losing my my mind<br />

Underneath the guise of a smile, gradually I'm dying inside<br />

<br />

Friends ask me how I feel and I lie convincingly<br />

'Cause I don't want to reveal that fact that I'm suffering<br />

So I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night<br />

And turn down all the lights and then break down and cry<br />

<br />

Gonna break ya down, down, down, only if ya let it everyday<br />

(Don't let it)<br />

Crazy situations rockin' my mind, tryin' to break me down<br />

But I won't let it, forget it<br />

If ya feel the same way that I do, then let me help y'all<br />

<br />

All singin' tunes, sayin', "It's all right, it's all right, it's all right, yeah"<br />

Hopin' for the sun but it looks like rain, P.O.D'ed but it's still the same<br />

Came far but it's been a long road<br />

Trouble's gonna come but we gotta stay strong, hold on<br />

<br />

Aw, yeah, I often feel the pressures, y'all<br />

But nevertheless Krayzie won't fall, it's over<br />

It's endin' here, I said it's over, it's endin' here<br />

(Here, here)<br />

So I'll be on my way and maybe we can meet up in the future one day<br />

<br />

But for now I'm bailin', bailin', bailin', baby, gotta get up<br />

Can't take no more, I'm headed for the door<br />

Come and take a look into a thug humble eye<br />

Tell me, if we lived a lie, would our souls unite?<br />

<br />

Every new day is a test for me<br />

So I just pray the Lord for Him to bless me, please<br />

There's struggles I'm goin' through lately<br />

Breaks me down, set me free, let me be, let me be<br />

<br />

Who else do I have to rely on? Whose shoulder can a thug go cry on?<br />

Can I get my vibe on? While you look into my eyes<br />

You won't underestimate and this soldier story<br />

I'm'a tell you right now I'm fed up<br />

<br />

Wrong if I let my lead bust? Pac said keep your head up<br />

Don't let this world get the best of you<br />

I'm a stress you through it, if it's over, over, over<br />

Don't breakdown yet, it's over<br />

<br />

Well, I guess, I'm trying to be nonchalant about it<br />

And I'm going the extremes to prove I'm fine without you<br />

But in reality I'm slowly losing my my mind<br />

Underneath the guise of a smile gradually I'm dying inside<br />

<br />

Friends ask me how I feel and I lie convincingly<br />

'Cause I don't want to reveal that fact that I'm suffering<br />

So I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night<br />

And turn down all the lights and then break down and cry
