A Woman
Written by Lisa Perkins, Shareka Pasley, Rodriques Richardson, and Arnold Davis
I had your babies, I sacrificed. I’ve given you half of my life; was down for whatever to make it right. Made one mistake, knew I was wrong now night after night, I’m alone. When are you coming back home? OOO--- uuuhh--.
(Chorus) What does a woman have to do to make it work? I know I was wrong that’s why I’m singing this song to you, cause I know you’re hurt.
Listen. Problems stress, and arguments. I forgave you for what you did, over and over, and over and over again. Time and attention is what I need. You go off to work and leave me. Leave me alone, alone with the kids. But I still wanna know----
(Chorus)
If we pull together, we can make it work. Forgive each other, and get past the hurt.
Can we give our love another try? Good times and bad, that’s the way it should be, I forgave you, won’t you forgive me. Don’t tell our love goodbye!!
Now I’m crying over you!! (Crying out baby) Yes I’m crying over you. (Can you hear me baby). Said I’m crying over you (no no no no no) Yes I’m crying over you------Oh------
(Chorus)

Farewell
Written by Lisa Perkins, & Arnold Davis, and Rodriques Richardson
A few weeks ago, tragedy took a friend of mine and I never got the chance to say goodbye. You never realize how precious life is till one’s gone. You hope and you pray your friends and family lives on. No one expects a man to take a plane from the sky, aim it at a building, to make thousands die. It’s a cold world and getting colder every day, and we’re all looking for the sunlight after the rain.
(Chorus) This is no Farewell, cause I’ll see you again. Just as soon as I close my eyes, I realize that you are here with me. There’s no sad song, before you left you made me strong. I’m not afraid to live on; I’ve got an angel watching over me. (And I love you)
A few months ago when Uncle Sam came knocking on your door, not once did you say I won’t go. I know you realized just what he had in store for you, but you opened your heart to serve your country and fight for truth. No one expects a man to brutalize his own kind, treat them all like slaves, and not care if they died. It’s a cold world and getting colder every day, and we’re all looking for the sunlight after the rain.
(Chorus)
So many lost in the tears, so many lost in the pain. So many lost in the darkness, the sun will shine again. SO many lost in the tears, so many lost in the pain, so many lost in the darkness, the sun will shine again----------------Ooooooo, oh, oh. (I love you, and I miss you, but one day we will be together again. Because you’ll always be in my heart, and you’ll always be in my mind.) (Chorus)

Making It Hard
Written by: Lisa Perkins, Shareka Pasley, Arnold Davis, and Rodriques Richardson
I’ve been sitting here waiting by the phone wondering if you wee gonna call me. Time is passing by not another lie I can’t take no more excuses baby. Now you’re pulling up a quarter pass three acting as if nothing is wrong. Trying to get in the house, now you’re licked out, boy you better go call Tyrone. Oh---
(Chorus)You’re making it hard for me to love you unconditionally, all the things that we been through boy you know I still love you. You‘re making it hard for me to love you unconditionally all the things that we’ve been through boy you know I still love you.
I’m tired of shedding tears I’ve wasted many years boy I can do bad all by myself. We keep breaking up to keep making up I sick of putting our love on the shelf. If you wanna be my man you better understand I don’t have time for your childish games. If you come back this time without an alibi you and I will never be the same. You’re making it hard---
(Chorus)
Boy, I love you so (I love you) More than you’ll ever know. (you’ll ever know) All the wrong that you done, nights alone with our son, you cheated you lied, (yeah) I’m hurting inside, (yeah) you’re tearing us apart----(yeah yeah yeah yeah)
(Chorus, Chorus)
