TLC - My Secret Enemy Lyrics

Now you lay me down to sleep
(That was then, but this is now)
I pray the Lord my soul to take
(I let you slip away some how)
If I shall die before I wake
(If I shall die my pain shall stay)
I pray the Lord my soul to take
(I made you what you are today)

Now as I look at my self I'm seeing someone familiar
Starring back at me through every deep crack that's in my mirror
And as I think to myself I'm hearing somebody else scream at me
I no longer hear them...
Could it be the unknown sneeking into my zone
Off we roam my spritiuals are not alone
I'm visualizing this invisible clone
Its my own, and on
Rest to sure its my dome
Maybe I need to go to bed
Could've sworn I just hear that voice up in my head
Not while I raps
When it hits me, but now its laughing at me
Yo what the hell is happening please somebody slap me.
No way not another physical display
Something must got me cracking up from way back in the day
But what can it be I cant recall the memory
So if I may ask

I just seen you yesterday
Its my f*ckin past
I just seen you yesterday
Its my f*ckin past
I just seen you yesterday
Its my f*ckin past
I just seen you yesterday
Its my f*ckin past
I just seen you yesterday
Its my f*ckin past
I just seen you yesterday
Its my f*ckin past
I just seen you yesterday
Its my f*ckin past
I just seen you yesterday

By any means is what it ever seemed to be
This reminsing with my past has got me caught up in a day dream
Stay in bed, with niggas who can pay the rent
Spending my green on panty hoes and tight jeans
I used to be so amused
Of the tools
That I used
To break rules only seemed to confuse
As to who playing the fool place yourself in my shoes
My blessed look of innocence was never refused
Now that I choose to abide (hello left eye)
And put my past to the side (well I guess I)
And kill a piece of my pride (need to introduce myself, you already said hi)
So your the match that lights my fuse (amuse)
I thought I left you on that cruise
(No you see your man took my place when it threw me in your face)
So we drank up all booze

Sing the blues
And yo we end up on the news
Sing the blues
We end up on the news
Sing the blues
We end up on the news
Sing the blues
We end up on the news
Sing the blues
We end up on the news
Sing the blues
We end up on the news
Sing the blues
We end up on the news
Sing the blues
We end up on the news

In the news today Lisa Lopes of the group tlc was arrested again
This time from drug trafficking
Ms. Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes was seen today standing
Just standing in the mist of an undercover drug bust
We have no news on Ms. Left Eyes penalty

Gotta get away from the past
If I make it I just might last
Gotta get away from the past
Trying to escape but its moving to fast

Gotta get away from the past
If I make it I just might last
Gotta get away from the past
Trying to escape but its moving to fast

We was walking before most babies can crawl (yes yes yall)
Above all one foot tall ain't no way I'm taking a down fall
I'm restructring walls, interrupting your calls
Heading straight to the source with this nut in my balls
Everytime the blind lead the blind
Another one of my kinds out sight, and out of mind
(Coming through the cracks) with this sense you cant miss
(Sittin in your dreams) go ahead take a rest
(I'm poppin off of niggas chest) should I be in distress?
(I'm niggas poppin on the scene) and they can get these
That's my bitch and I'm his bitch
And what the hell do they know? (Is that so?)
This ain't the case scenerio
And I could care less about your people and they relentlessness
Towards the eye say goodbye and tell his moms to stop cryin

Go tell his moms to stop crying
His moms to stop crying
Go tell his moms to stop crying

My secret enemy
Your not a friend to me
My secret enemy
Your not a friend to me

In todays weather were at an all time high in the rain season
Its been raining cats and dogs here in Atlanta for the 44th day.
And in national sports today Andre Rison of the Atlanta Falcons has done what many Americans only dream of
This historic event of removing Deon Sanders tooth
With a double combination hit to the mouth brought tears of joy to many americans eyes
