Lauryn Hill - Ex-Factor (A Simlpe Mix) Lyrics






[Lauryn Hill]
Y-yo.. [echoes], y-yo.. uhh
Y-yo.. [echoes], y-yo.. uhh
Y-y-yo.., yo, y-yo..
Y-y-yo.. [echoes]

Y-yo..
uhh, y-yo..
Uh-uh..
Y-y-yo..

It could all be simple but you'd rather make it hard
Loving you is like a battle we both end up scarred
Tell me who I have to be to get some reciprocity
No one loves you more than me and no one ever will
Is this just a silly game that forces you to act this way
Forces you to scream my name, then pretend, that you can't stay
Tell me who I have to be to get some reciprocity
No one loves you more than me and no one ever will

[Lauryn harmonizes]

[Chorus: Lauryn]

No matter how I think we grow
You always seem to let me know
It ain't workin, it ain't workin, uhh
And when I try to walk away
You'd hurt yourself to make me stay
This is crazy, this is crazy..

[Lauryn Hill]
I keep letting you back in, how can I explain myself?
As crazy as this thing has been, I just can't be with no one else
I know what we've got to do, you let go I'll let go too
No one's hurt me more than you and no one ever will

[Lauryn: rapping]
Yo, y-yo, yo yo
I'm here now, not just because it's my year now
I'm clear now, only feelin cats that's sincere now
Heart of lioness, scientist, street Zionist
Don't twist it, it's consistantly consistent
If you missed it, this train is bound for glory
End of story, my whole repoitory is Psalm 40
They bomb for me
Thinkin they can mess with your plan, but I'ma play lamb
Knowin that the Kingdom's at hand, and showin those who want it
you gon' bring em the land, descendants of Ham
Not concerned with the platinum status
Cause every joint I threw, I would do for gratis
I'm on the train with my Pips like I'm lil Gladys
or in the Range throwin chips to the kids in Addis (Ethiopia)
Abbaba, two kids and and a baby father
Hot to lava, we Don Dadda, Don Dadda

[Chorus: Lauryn]

No matter how I think we grow
You always seem to let me know
It ain't workin, it ain't workin
And when I try to walk away
You'd hurt yourself to make me stay
This is crazy, this is crazy..

[Lauryn Hill]
Care for me, care for me, I know you care for me
There for me, there for me, said you'd be there for me
Cry for me, cry for me, you said you'd die for me!
Give to me, give to me..

Care for me, care for me, you said you'd care for me
There for me, there for me, said you'd be there for me
Cry for me, cry for me, you said you'd die for me!
Give to me, give to me, why won't you live for me?

Ohh noo.. why won't you live for me?
Why..hahhhihhhhhh, won't you live, for me, for me, for meeee

Care for me, care for me, I know you care for me
There for me, there for me, said you'd be there for me
Cry for me, cry for me, you said you'd die for me!
Give to meeeeeee..

Give to meeeeeee..

It could all be simple, but you'd rather make it harrrrrd..
Loving you, loving you, is like a bat-tle..
Hmmmhmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Give to meeee.. care for meeee..
Give to meeee.. care for meeeeeee..
Care for meeee.

  1. L.... C....

    This songs sums up my children’s fathers and my relationship to a tee

  2. B.... D....

    People saying they searched so long for this when all I had to do was enter "ex factor remix" 3:48

    B.... D....

    I didn't even know the name of the song so I *was* searching for so long

  3. E.... A....

    idk if i'm allowed to listen to this because i'm white and lauryn hill said she doesn't want white people listening to her music

    E.... A....

    @Semra Van Dijk you're absolutely right. i misquoted that.

    what she really said was, she would "rather die than have white people buy her albums."

    Google is your friend.

    E.... A....

    WoW I never expected that from her 😱
    I read it and it, s a Rumor

    E.... A....

    Don't believe the rumors.

    E.... A....

    @badwithfeelings i wouldn't believe them if she still had a career

    E.... A....

    She never said that and adresses the rumor herself a few years ago :
    "And just to clear up an old urban legend that somehow people still believe, I do not hate white people. I do, however, despise a system of entitlement and oppression set up to exploit people who are different. I do loathe the promotion and preservation of said system at the expense of other people, and the racist and entitled attitudes it gives rise to. The lengthy history of unfairness and brutality towards people of color, especially Black people, has not been fully acknowledged or corrected. The expectation is for us to live with abuse, distortion, and deliberate policies, meant to outright control and contain us — like we’re not aware of our basic right to freedom. I resist and reject THESE ideas completely(...)"
