Mariah Carey - Caution Lyrics
GTFO
How 'bout you?
How 'bout you?
You took my love for granted
You left me lost and disenchanted
Bulldoze my heart as if you planned it
My prince was so unjustly handsome
Who was a knight in shining armor?
I could've sworn you loved me harder
Might as well down this Caymus bottle
I ain't the type to play the martyr
How 'bout you get the f*ck out?
How 'bout you get the f*ck out?
Get the f*ck out
(How 'bout you) take your tings and be on your merry way
Fly off with a wink, bye bye baby
How about you scusez me, let me call your valet
(You just) take your tings and be on your merry way
My friends all saw it in your eyes
They told me once, they told me twice
I looked beyond all the signs
I guess fool's love makes you blind, ay
Who was a knight in shining armor?
(You, you, you)
I coulda swore you loved me harder
(You, you, you)
Might as well down this Caymus bottle
(You, you, you)
I ain't the type to play the martyr
How 'bout you get the f*ck out? (how about)
How 'bout you get the f*ck out?
How about you get the f*ck out?
(How 'bout you) take your tings and be on your merry way
(How 'bout you) fly off with a wink, bye bye, baby
How about you scusez me, let me call your valet
(How 'bout you) take your tings and be on your merry way
How 'bout you get the f*ck out?
(F*ck out, f*ck out)
Don't tell me these lies when you're bluffing
How 'bout you get the f*ck out?
Go stay at your friend's house or something
Don't mean to be rude, but take your shit and leave
(How 'bout you)
Go stay at your friend's house or something
(How 'bout you)
Go and stay with your homeboy, he was talking too
(How 'bout you)
I ain't tryna be rude, but you're lucky
(How 'bout you)
I kicked your ass out last weekend
(How 'bout you) take your things and be on your merry way
(How 'bout you) fly off with a wink
Bye bye, baby

With You
Uh huh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh
With you
With you, you, you
With you, you, you
With you, you, you
Mustard on that beat, ho
It was all so overwhelming
She was like "I don't know, don't tell me"
He had eyes that said "girl, I'll save you"
She had doubts, like they might not make it
So they both held tight to face it
They wrote vows, she was bound to take 'em
She was full of such trepidation
There in front of the whole damn nation
It was war, can't predict the comin' storm
Promise that you'll keep me warm
I don't wanna play this role
He said "yo, I've been lovin' you so long
Ever since that Bone Thugs song
You ain't gotta break down, you're too strong"
Ooh, shots of Remy
Playing Confessions, and our bodies blendin'
Ooh, I'm in love, it's true
Yeah, damn I f*cks with you
And we all make mistakes sometimes
But we muddle through
I don't know what I'm supposed to do (boy)
Oh baby, I'm in love, it's true
With you, you, you
With you, you, you
With you, you, you
Baby, I'm in love, it's true
Waves were breakin' on the shore
As we were sneakin' through that door
Had to leave by half past 4
Still I yearned to touch you more and more
It was war, can't predict the comin' storm
Promise that you'll keep me warm
I don't wanna play this role
He said "yo, I've been lovin' you so long
Ever since that Bone Thugs song
You ain't gotta break down, you're too strong"
Ooh, shots of Remy
Playing Confessions, and our bodies blendin'
Ooh, I'm in love, it's true
Yeah, damn I f*cks with you
And we all make mistakes sometimes
But we muddle through
I don't know what I'm supposed to do
Oh baby, I'm in love, it's true
And ooh, shots of Remy
Playing Confessions, and our bodies blendin'
Ooh, I'm in love, it's true
Yeah, damn I f*cks with you
And we all make mistakes sometimes
But we muddle through
I don't know what I'm supposed to do boy
Oh baby, I'm in love, it's true
With you, you, you (with you, with you, with you)
With you, you, you (oh yeah)
With you, you, you (oh yeah)
Oh baby, I'm in love, it's true (with you, with you) oh babe

Caution
Never too late you can come through
I'll be up waiting
I don't want nobody but you
No hesitating
'Cause every time you leave I fall apart
Boy you're the missing pieces of my heart
And I try to let you go but you resist and pull me back
And I try to be alone but you persist, I've met my match
Proceed with caution, don't be dishonest
I need you closer to love me harder
Proceed with caution, face to face
And touch me in a different kind of way
Proceed with caution, but don't make me wait
Before too long it just might fade away
Proceed with caution, caution, caution, caution, caution
Never enough gimme your touch
Don't wanna waste time
You lift me up, give me that rush
Tell me it's all mine
I'll give up everything to be right where you are
I'll follow you from here like you're the northern star
And I try to let you go but you resist and pull me back
And I try to be alone but you persist, I've met my match
Proceed with caution, don't be dishonest
I need you closer to love me harder
Proceed with caution, face to face
And touch me in a different kind of way
Proceed with caution, but don't make me wait
Before too long it just might fade away
Proceed with caution, caution, caution, caution, caution
Do you want more material possessions? Ain't nothing
Do you want more? Can you commit to be my everything?
Do you want more? Baby convince me with the words you sing
If you wanna be more to me, you must proceed with caution
Caution, caution, caution
Caution, caution, caution
Caution, caution
Yeah yeah yeah proceed with caution
Proceed with caution, don't be dishonest
I need you closer to love me harder
Proceed with caution, face to face
And touch me in a different kind of way
Proceed with caution, don't be dishonest
I need you closer to love me harder
Proceed with caution, face to face
And touch me in a different kind of way
Proceed with caution, but don't make me wait
Before too long it just might fade away
Proceed with caution, caution, caution, caution

A No No
I ain't even mad, no not like before
Off with your head, now slither out the door
Snakes in the grass it's time to cut the lawn
Ed Scissor hands a.k.a I cut you off
No
You ain't gonna lie to my face no more
Hit me with "I'm sorry" but I'm sorry, no
Na na na na na na na na na na
No
Get me Ed Shapiro on the phone, case closed (chuck it)
(Chuck it)
You shoulda' known that it's bigger than you
You'll never know what I already knew
After everything I already been through
I can't waste no time, pay no atention to you
I said no
No no no, a no no
No no, that's a no no
No no, I said no no
No no
You came so close
You just don't know
Irregardless of what transpired
It ain't even worthy of a slick reply
Even if I was the last woman alive
I would be like Ginger, you ain't Gilligan isle
Really don't care, I'm in love with the island
Rockin' Dior 'cause it goes with my diamonds
Got a pink gown custom by Alaia
I'll be on stage when the stadium light up
You shoulda' known that it's bigger than you
You'll never know what I already knew
After everything I already been through
I can't waste no time, pay no attention to you
I said no
No no no, a no no
No no, that's a no no
No no, I said no no
No no
I said no (I said no)
No no no, a no no
No no, that's a no no
No no, I said no no
No no
He's a slut, he's a hoe, he's a freak
Got a different girl every day of the week
(Chuck it)
He's a slut, he's a hoe, he's a freak
Got a different girl every day of the week
(Chuck it)
He's a slut, he's a hoe, he's a freak
Got a different girl every day of the week
(Chuck it)
He's a slut, he's a hoe, he's a freak
Got a different girl every day of the week (chuck it)
I said no

Look, I said no no (that's a no no)
I said no, I said no no, no no

The Distance
S-P-I-R-I-T, it's great to see
We got it, the spirit
Hey, hey, let's hear it
Ain't nobody stopping us
What we have is dangerous
Left they opinions in the dust
Said can't nobody f*ck with us
They'll never find a way to make us fade away
Our love won't fade away (no)
They'll never find a way to make us fade away
Our love won't fade away
Warm days, cold nights
Late October
Separated, people saying what we have is over
But the hate only made us get closer (close)
And closer (yah, yah, yah)
Said we couldn't go the distance, yeah
Look at us, we're going the distance
They just wanna be us
They don't wanna see us
Going the distance (yeah)
For life, for life, la di da
Said we couldn't go the distance
For life, for life, la di da
Look at us, we're going the distance
The distance, oh
It was no good
Having hands up
Tried to diminish me
Always stayed out
Camping out crowds
In spite of them difficulties
But they can't, but they can't, but they can't
Take away them precious memories (yeah)
And I won't, and I won't, and I won't
Let 'em come between you and me (woo)
Warm days, cold nights
Late October
Separated, people saying what we have was over
But the hate, only made
Us get closer, (close)
Closer
Said we couldn't go the distance
Look at us, we're going the distance (hey)
They just wanna be us
They don't wanna see us
Going the distance (yeah)
For life, for life, la di da
Said we couldn't go the distance
For life, for life, la di da
Look at us, we're going the distance
We've been goin' all the way (ay)
For the longest (ooh yeah)
We're too strong (too strong)
We're too silent (ooh yeah)
They can't stop it now
We in Prada now (ooh)
F*ck all their comments (their comments)
They be so toxic (they be so toxic)
We be kissing in public
You like it, I love it
You with it, I'm with it

Giving Me Life
Hey babe, what's happening? How are you doing?
We can make it babe
Me and you, me and you, me and you
It wasn't really
It wasn't really
It wasn't really much at all
It wasn't really
So, it's summertime, a splash of wine
And forget about it
If you're so inclined, let's take a ride tonight
So then maybe if the stars align
We'll fix our minds on another tangent
And it's kinda like impossible to top this at all
Giving me life and it's everything
Thinkin' 'bout when we were seventeen
Feeling myself like I'm Norma Jeane
Here in my arms is where you should be
It wasn't really
It wasn't really much
It wasn't really much at all
It wasn't really
It wasn't really
It wasn't really much at all
My philosophy doesn't quite apply to you and me
But I won't think too much
So c'mon and feel my touch
It wasn't really much at all
Just a little sensitivity of the soul
Here in my heart is where you should be
Oh you are
Giving me life and it's everything
Thinkin' 'bout when we were seventeen
Living like Babs 'cause it's Evergreen
Here in my arms is where you should be
It wasn't really
It wasn't really much
It wasn't really much at all
(It really wasn't) it wasn't really
It wasn't really
It wasn't really much at all
Whats up ma? Hush got fly
Here's a ques', why you left, was it my messed up eye?
Why? Reminisce wanna be huncy hun
Follow sheep, from was the first chick, Clarks Wallabees on
Swag honey drip, spending some time
Remember them rhymes? Your gold fronts look better than mines did
What's ecstasy, pounding in the BM'
Cloud a million, that was way before war, gowns in the skier
Giving me life
Giving me life and it's everything (Mariah Carey)
Thinkin' bout' when we were seventeen
Feeling myself like I'm Norma Jeane
Here in my arms is where you should be
Giving me life and it's everything (giving me life)
(Everything yeah)
Thinkin' bout' when we were seventeen (thinkin' bout' when we were)
Living like Babs 'cause it's Evergreen 9'cause it's Evergreen)
Here in my arms is where you should be (oh you are)
Giving me life and it's everything (wasn't really, wasn't really)
Thinkin' bout' when we were seventeen (got me thinkin' bout' whene we were)
Feeling myself like I'm Norma Jeane (wasn't really, wasn't really)
Here in my arms is where you should be (oh here in my arms) (it wasn't really much at all)
Giving me life and it's everything

One Mo Gen
Did you like when I put my lips there?
'Cause I like when you're kissing me everywhere
Do you mind if we go back in one mo' gen?
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, one mo' gen
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, one mo' gen
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, one mo' gen
Can we just get it in one mo' gen?
You give me that fever I ain't trying to break
Been a little while but I don't mind to wait
I'm gon' need a ride home now sooner than later
Must I reiterate, can we pick up the pace?
And once we lit this towering inferno
The flame is burning higher, hotter we go
And the temperature is rising, crack a window
Let's be the opposite of lonely
Come and give me what you owe me, yeah-yeah
Did you like when I put my lips there?
'Cause I like when you're kissing me everywhere
Do you mind if we go back in one mo' gen?
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, one mo' gen
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, one mo' gen
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, one mo' gen
Can we just get it in one mo' gen?
Ain't no use in being stingy with it
If you think you're getting off, forget it
And if you think it ain't all for you, you're wrong
Baby it's all for you
Addicted to you, come support my habit
Third person, yeah she gotta have it
If you think I'm on call for you, you're right
Baby I'm on to you
And once we lit this towering inferno
The flame keeps burning higher, hotter we go
And the temperature is rising, crack a window
Let's be the opposite of lonely
Come and give me what you owe me yeah yeah
Did you like when I put my lips there?
'Cause I like when you're kissing me everywhere
Do you mind if we go back in (go back in) one mo' gen? (One mo' gen)
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, one mo' gen
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, one mo' gen (one mo' gen)
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, one mo' gen
Can we just get it in one mo' gen?
J'avouerai, quand nous
Do you like it?

Can we just get it in one mo' gen?
One mo' gen, one mo' gen, one mo gen'

I'm not you world
No, I'm not you life
Tell me what that means to you
If it was me that was by your side
Limitless without no rules
Nothing to lose
Never no pressure
Just put yourself in my shoes
I'm not you world
No, I'm not you life
That cigarette, put it out, put it out
Keep looking my way, turn around, turn around
This is a moment you can't buy
I see the longing in your eyes
Something is telling me you're ready, am I wrong?
Maybe the lyrics are too heavy in my song
How would you feel if you had me then I was gone?
Better not be leading me on
I'm not you world
No, I'm not you life
Tell me what that means to you
If it was me that was by your side
Limitless without no rules
Nothing to lose
Never no pressure
Just put yourself in my shoes
I'm not you world
No, I'm not you life
I'm a confirmation should you feel unsure
I'm that security when you're insecure
I'll be that baby girl when you're immature
Don't be ambivalent towards me
Something is telling me you're ready, am I wrong?
Maybe the lyrics are too heavy in my song
How would you feel if you had me then I was gone?
Better not be leading me on
I'm not you world
I'm not you life
Tell me what that means to you
If it was me that was by your side
Limitless without no rules
Nothing to lose
Never no pressure
Just put yourself in my shoes
I'm not you world
No, I'm not you life
I'm not your life, oh babe cry
I'm not you world
No, I'm not you life (baby I would be your life)
Tell me what that means to you
If it was me that was by your side
Limitless without no rules (limitless)
Nothing to lose
Never no pressure (no pressure)
Just put yourself in my shoes
I'm not you world
No, I'm not you life
(Attention, break it down)
I'm not you world
No, I'm not you life
Tell me what that means to you
See I'm not your world
(Me that was by your side
Limitless without no rules)
Nothing to lose
No pressure
(Limitless without no rules)
Nothing
(Limitless without no rules)
(C'mon)
Nothing to lose
No pressure
No pressure
Oh oh
I'm not your life (what you say girl?)
Limitless without no rules
C'mon, what you say girl, what you say girl, what you say girl? C'mon!

Stay Long Love You
Would you mind, would you mind
I like the way you're movin'
Come feel me with your music
Yeah yeah do you mind if I try
I like the way you're movin'
Control me, make me lose it
Would you mind, would you mind, baby
How you want it? How you want it? Tell me how you want it
Hot as momma's cookin' in the kitchen during summer
'Cause if you want it I could serve it
Come and get it
Won't you let me clean the plate and do the dishes?
All that I want is to be all you need
Baby in fact
Ooh your good lovin' did something to me
You make me, make me wanna
Touch you right there
You make me, make me wanna
Kiss you over there

Stay long love you
I got your back, I wouldn't front
I came that night, you know I want it
I wake up to you in the morning
And eat that pussy up for lunch
And I take care of you like a son
Heard they would talk but not on Sunday
Every day she help me count the money
Bought her diamonds if they match with the Chanel purse
We stick together and we can take over the whole world
I know you expectin' it straighter than the S-curl
You constantly winnin' and shittin' on my ex girl
You make me, make me wanna
Touch you right there
You make me, make me wanna
Kiss you over there
You make me, make me wanna
Oh, oh, yeah

Portrait
Where do I go from here?
How do I disappear?
Here beyond the looking glass
Somewhere off the beaten path
Heartache never seems to pass, just lasts
And I'd go
Yet I know that tomorrow comes, so I'll be here when you rise
Stay real close and the moment will subside
Look the other way as I bottle myself up inside
I won't let the teardrops spill tonight
Just conceal myself and hide
A portrait of my life
Somewhat desensitized, still the same hopeful child
Haunted by those severed ties
Pushing past the parasites
Down but not demoralized
Unconfined, but don't let go
Yes I know that tomorrow comes, so I'll be here when you rise
Stay here close and the moment will subside
Look the other way as I bottle myself up inside
I won't let the teardrops spill tonight
Just conceal myself and hide
A portrait of my life
And for the finale, she can float around effortlessly
And dream away the hours in her mind
And I'd let go
Yet I know that tomorrow comes, so I'll be here when you rise
Stay here close and the moment will subside
Look the other way as I bottle myself up inside
I won't let the teardrops spill tonight
Just conceal myself and hide
This portrait of my life
