Songs Lyrics: Jennifer Lopez

I'm Gonna Be Alright

Oh, yes

(Uh, this for you, girl)

Yo, I took you from the projects, put the best clothes in ya closet

Like Ginger from "Casino" and now you a pro

We was like Joe DiMaggio and Marilyn Monroe

All ya jealous girlfriends hatin' waitin'

So I put the cards in yo' hand

All I know, when Nas was yo' man

It was so real, boats and sixes

Special Japanese chefs makin' home cooked dishes

Plenty trips, invisible sets

You know what you missin'

It's funny 'cause for a while

I walked around with a smile

But deep inside, I could hear

Voices telling me this ain't right

Don't you know he's not for you?

I always knew what I had to do

But it's hard to get away

'Cause I love you, I just tried to stay

I used to say I couldn't do it, but I did it (yes, I did)

After telling everybody that I wasn't with it (oh, yes)

Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it

And I know inside I'ma be alright (I'ma be alright)

I said I couldn't do it, but I did it (yes, I did)

After telling everybody that I wasn't with it (oh, yes)

Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it

And that voice inside says I'm gonna be alright

Friends of mine say to me

Say you got control over me

You're not alone, I played my part

I saw the way you were from the start

Could I expect so much from you?

You had a girl when I first met you

Did the best that you could do

Now I realize that I can't change you

I used to say I couldn't do it, but I did it (ooh)

After telling everybody that I wasn't with it

Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it

And I know inside I'ma be alright (be alright)

I said I couldn't do it, but I did it (yes, I did it)

After telling everybody that I wasn't with it (oh, yes)

Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it

And that voice inside says I'm gonna be alright

Said I wouldn't walk away

Some days I want to stay (days I want to stay)

But leaving you is what I need to do (need to do)

To be okay (I need to be okay)

I never thought it would be true (would be true)

Be living without you (living without you, shit 'cause life is crazy)

So now it's time for me to make that move (uh, check it)

Yo, nobody understands me, I'm dealin' with pressure

My peoples is locked in a jail cell with no bail stressin'

Guess it's the life of a kingpin (oh, no), rap Stephen King, rap bling

Like neon lights, we gon' be alright (be alright, yes)

But it's like, you feelin' me lesser

Claim I'm actin' like a retard, right? (Oh, no)

Me and my boys, we start fights, when will I mature?

You scream I'm in the streets all night

Or where was I at, ya found light brown hairs on my hat (said I'm gonna be alright)

I'm slow caught

I used to say I couldn't do it, but I did it

After telling everybody that I wasn't with it

Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it

And I know inside I'ma be alright

I said I couldn't do it, but I did it

After telling everybody that I wasn't with it

Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it

And that voice inside says I'm gonna be alright
