which song are you talking about? runaway love? |
yeah which song? i have her new cd or maybe her last one i dont know which it has the be without you song on it but i dont know if thats new or if thats the one before. but let me know, i havent been listening to rap much due to it all being soooo dumb. it talks about the same stuff or dumb stuff that we dont care about. |
runnaway love. it's a heartbreaker. just days where I am such a ditz TyTy |
yea i've heard it, i love that song. |
This is my favorite part: Emotions run deep and she thinks she's in love So there's no protection he's using no glove Never thinkin' bout the conceqences of her actions Livin' for today and not tomorrow's satisfaction The days go by and her belly gets big The father bails out he ain't ready for a kid Knowin' her mama would blow it all out of proportion Plus she lives poor so no money for abortion Ericka's stuck up in the world on her own Forced to think that Hell is a place called home Nothin' else to do but get her clothes and pack She says she's bout to run away and never come back |
the song depresses me. It's a really good song, and spreads the word about problems that do affect our youth everyday but tend to get ignored because social workers are so understaffed. but it really just makes sad when I hear it. |
My kids love that song:eek:, they know the words too:eek:. My little 9 year old daughter told me that she likes songs that have a message behind it :eek: and that is why she likes this song:eek:. She said that is very sad for those little girls and then she said "mommy, they are 9 like me":( :(. Very sad song:( |
Have you seen the video? holy smokes, that part i saw was about a dad who abuses his kid and not just physically, i thought it was... well my gut went with inappropriate, but I'm just funny thay way. ;) My daughter, 17, was listening to it on the radio, she had no idea what it was about. I made her listen to the words. |

I love it. Someone who is not afraid to but issues in the limelight that need to be addressed. The performance of the song on the grammy's was beautiful. |

Now little Lisa's only 9 years old She's tryna figure out why the world is so cold While she's all alone and ain't never met her family Mama's always gone and she never met her daddy Part of her is missing and nobody will listen Mama's on drugs gettin' high up in the kitchen Bringin' home men at different hours of the night Startin' with some laughs... usually ending in a fight Sneakin' in her room when her mama's knocked out Tryna have his way and little Lisa says 'ouch' She tries to resist but then all he does is beat her Tries to tell her mom but her mama don't believe her Lisa's stuck up in the world on her own Forced to think that Hell is a place called home Nothin' else to do but get some clothes and pack She says she's bout to run away and never come back |
I don't mind it. Actaully made me proud of my daughter as she sat down and thought about the song,{video really} while her friends laughed and made fun of it. and that made me proud. and I explained to her that all these girls in this song have choices. not just run away. Tell your priest or paster or a teacher or fireman or nurse or even if you do run away go to a teen shelter, there's a safe choice. try to think it thu and make it. TyTy for once modern music is doing something right. |

Love the song because it has a strong meaning, and just to clarify things the song is by Ludicriss Mary just sings the hook. ;) |
It's heartbreaking to think that any child has to live this way. Here's the song lyrics... [Hook - Mary J. Blige] Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love [Verse 1 - Ludacris] Now little lisa is only 9 years old Shes tryin to figure out why the world is so cold Why shes all all alone and they never met her family Mamas always gone and she never met her daddy Part of her is missin and nobody will listenin Mama is on drugs gettin high up in the kitchen Bringin home men at different hours of the night Startin with laughs--usually endin in a fight Sneak into her room while her mamas knocked out Tryin to have his way and little lisa says 'ouch' She tries to resist but then all he does is beat her Tries to tell her mom but her mama don't believe her Lisa is stuck up in the world on her own Forced to think that hell is a place called home Nothin else to do but some get some clothes and pack She says shes bout to run away and never come back. [Hook - Mary J. Blige] Runaway love [x8] [Verse 2 - Ludacris] Little nicole is only 10 years old Shes steady tryin to figure why the world is so cold Why shes not pretty and nobody seems to like her Alcoholic step dad always wanna strike her Yells and abuses, leaves her with some bruises Teachers ask questions she makin up excuses Bleedin on the inside, cryin on the out Its only one girl really knows what she about Her name is lil stacy and they become friends Promise that they always be tight til the end Until one day lil stacy gets shot A drive by bullet went stray up on her block Now nicole stuck up in the world on her own Forced to think that hell is a place called home Nothin else to do but some get some clothes and pack She says shes bout to run away and never come back. [Hook - Mary J. Blige] Runaway love [x8] [Verse 3 - Ludacris] Little erica is eleven years old Shes steady tryin to figure why the world is so cold So she pops x to get rid of all the pain Cause shes havin sex with a boy whos sixteen Emotions run deep and she thinks shes in love So theres no protection hes usin no glove Never thinkin bout the consequences of her actions Livin for today and not tomorrows satisfaction The days go by and her belly gets big The father bails out he aint ready for a kid Knowin her mama will blow it all outta proportion Plus she lives poor so no money for abortion Erica is stuck up in the world on her own Forced to think that hell is a place called home Nothin else to do but get her clothes and pack She say shes about to run away and never come back. [Hook - Mary J. Blige] Runaway love [repeats til end] |
