chorus (x3)

You messing up my mind, the flesh is really weak
I gotta put you down it's you I wanna beat
You're spinning me around, I hear you in the air
There's so many sounds, your voice is really clear

Here we are alone just you and me once again
You're suffering, I know your playin', don't pretend
'Cause it's on me I know that you do depend
And I can bring your pain to an end

I don't want your pain
Gotta get away
I don't want to stay, but you keep calling me, oh
Damn it, I'm in need, someone, help me please
I got to put you down it's you I need to beat

You used to be a friend of mine a time
You used to be a friend of mine a time

Verse 2

Look at you, I know that you are feeling my pull
You're breaking down and damn, you're so pitiful
'Cause you need me more than I need you
You can't escape, 'cause we're not through

I don't want your pain
Gotta get away
I don't want to stay, but you keep calling me, oh
Damn it, I'm in need, someone help me please
I gotta put you down it's you I need to beat

You used to be a friend of mine a time
You used to be a friend of mine a time
You used to be a friend of mine a time
You used to be a friend of mine a time

Every night I spend alone I yearn for you
Gave up everything just for the things you do
Oh no, not another day, oh no, it's time for this to end

You messing up my mind the flesh is really weak
I gotta put you down it's you I wanna beat
You're spinning me around I hear you in the air
There's so many sounds your voice is really clear

You used to be a friend of mine a time
You used to be a friend of mine a time
You used to be a friend of mine a time
You used to be a friend of mine a time

Pops is already hooked up with Touch and Que
Smooth is gonna pick us up so what we gonna do
We gonna party tonight

Pulled up to the spot, the line up's pressed against the wall (oh oh, oh oh)
Ain't no guest list, no line by-pass, no respect at all (oh oh, oh oh)
We don't wait, anticipate, the bouncer's at the door (oh oh, oh oh)
Ask us who we be, everybody tell them who we are

Step up in the club, first thing that I see
Pretty little ting, and she eyein' me, oh

We got the drinks hooked up, trees rolled up, DJ turn it up
That's all we need, all we need, yeah

But everybody's standin' 'round like they don't wanna dance (oh oh, oh oh)
Well, I.E. can rock the party no matter what the circumstance (oh oh, oh oh)
We got up on the dance floor and our song begins to play (oh oh, oh oh)
Now everybody's gathered 'round, we hear the people say

Chorus

All we wanna do is make you dance, dance, dance
All we wanna do is make you dance, dance
Now clap your hands (clap clap clap clap-clap clap clap clap)
Now clap your hands (clap clap clap clap-clap clap clap clap)

We the group from under, keep makin' you wanna
Bounce to the beat 'cause we look so sweet
We most incredible, we indismissible
The group you love to listen to, no room for defeat
Plus we make our own beats, and we smoke a whole leaf
Pass that joint on the left side, you know it's the best side
Not the east to the west side
But it's the way that northern shit grows
It makes you feel it right down to your toes
And hoes when you greet us with the sticky
No time for the chatta, chatta, no time for the licky, licky (hey)
You want that ecstasy, we got that remedy
'Cause IE came up to rip the party
And BOOM
Look who entered the room
I.N.E.S.S.E.N.C.E.

Chorus
