"remember Word To The Badd? "


  

          

What up yo,
word to the badd

Reconstructed
Been abducted
Don’t know who you are
Think may love you
they don’t know you
Lonely superstar

Never think about who you love
Only think about number one
You forget about where you started from
You only think about what you want
don’t care about how it’s done
you only think about you, your throne
Be it right or be it wrong

It ain’t about your world
It ain’t about the things that you do
If you don’t care, I don’t care
Cause you keep thinkin’ ’bout you
It ain’t about you takin’ my pie
You been takin’ for a long time
If you don’t care, I don’t care
If you keep
Well I ain’t thinkin’ ’bout you

What up yo, word to the badd

Once you were made
You changed your shade
Was your color wrong?
Could not turn back
It’s a known fact
You were too far gone
You know I tried to be there for you
Like a brother I care for you
It didn’t matter you always play me off
You only care about what you want
You don’t care about how it’s done
You only think about you, your throne
Be it right or wrong

It ain’t about your world
It ain’t about the things that you do
If you don’t care, I don’t care
Cause you keep thinkin’ ’bout you
It ain’t about you takin’ my pie
You been takin’ for a long time
If you don’t care, I don’t care
If you keep
Well I ain’t thinkin’ ’bout you
Oh no no, I ain’t thinkin’ ’bout you
Oh no

What up yo, word to the badd

Thinkin’ about that pie that you’ve been takin’ from me
From a brother to another brother hard to believe
Lost and don’t know it yet you still show it
Givin’ seems to be harder than it is to receive
The glass has gotten shady, time to make it clearer,
Clean it up and lets start with the Man in the mirror.
Theres sadness there brother, aint no mistaken it,
Get a grip cause youre not far from breakin it.
Thinkin about the time when we used to be close,
It shouldnt be past tense, cause nobody knows,
What the future may hold, what tomorrow might bring,
Its not guaranteed that youll be spreading your wings

But meanwhile, I continue to smile, cause in the back of my head,
I know you’re still a child
You say that your a man, but that will never be.
Unless the day comes when you can lean on me

Gone too far, you better turn back
I know who you are
You know where I'm at
Sad but its true, from me to you
Don't be alone
Step off your throne
Come back home

It ain’t about your world
It ain’t about the things that you do
If you don’t care, I don’t care
Cause you keep thinkin’ ’bout you

It ain’t about your world
It ain’t about the things that you do
If you don’t care, I don’t care
Cause you keep thinkin’ ’bout you
It ain’t about you takin’ my pie
You been takin’ for a long time
If you don’t care, I don’t care
If you keep

It ain’t about your world
It ain’t about the things that you do
If you don’t care, I don’t care
Cause you keep thinkin’ ’bout you

However, the way Jermaine looks at it, at least one positive thing occurred as a result of the song's public airing. Shortly after the recording was leaked, Michael called.

The two Jackson siblings reportedly met for the first time in eight months on Monday in Los Angeles.

"The first thing Michael asked me was 'Why?' " Jermaine said. "So I explained to him how I felt. After we talked for awhile we agreed that no matter how busy each of us gets that we should never be too busy to take a call from one another. But that's between us.

"You see, I love my brother very much. My relationship with my brother is more important than money. It's more important than a No. 1 record. The most important thing is that we maintain being brothers and hopefully this song will help improve our relationship. I'm not happy that the song has been made public, but what can I do about it now?"

fuck you.

well, his father and most of his siblings. then he became one of the most powerful ppl in Hollywood w/enough money to insulate himself from just about everyone in the world w/whom he had any beef. he was able to retreat into a fantasy world of his creation. i can see how that could result in him not speaking to or seeing Jermaine for 8 months. money and power can make that easy.

fuck you.

....and Michael was still living there, so things definitely weren't right.

In Jermaine's book (and Clive Davis's book) He said the distance and the feeling Michael purposely booked LA Reid and Babyface while they were working on his follow up to Don't Take It Personal was the last straw

I like the beat though lol

but he makes it a point to not be around unless you're sleep or away and your dad is away lol

the family was fragmented at the time. MJ was distancng himself, LaToya was off with Jack Gordon, Marlon had moved to Atlanta and kept his distance and Janet was starting to stay away

then later Jermaine got with Randy's girlfriend

But I didn't know LA, Babyface, and Left Eye were involved. I haven't thought about that song since it was a story on Entertainment Tonight and whatnot.
