Ne-Yo - Ballerina Lyrics






She's a ballerina
Discipline so superb
Blessed with swan leg grace
Curse with Houston curves
The teachers hate her features
Beat her down with words
Saying there's somewhere else she should be dancing with a body like hers
Shawty been lead astray
Considering what they say

No matter what they try to tell ya
Know that you are not lost
When they question your direction
Know that you are not lost
Don't you let nobody tell you your way (tell you your way)
Don't you let nobody tell you your way (tell you your way)

She's a ballerina
Through and through
Nothing can contest
Though she's incredible she don't get paid for it yet
Student loans to keep the lights on
She breaks her neck
Thinking about stripping but she don't won't her teachers to be right
She don't want regrets
But shawty got bills to pay
But she don't wanna do it that way

No matter what they try to tell ya
Know that you are not lost
Though they question your direction
Know that you are not lost
Don't you let nobody tell you your way (tell you your way)
Don't you let nobody tell you your way (tell you your way)

Most people only thinking about the destination
Never giving any thought to the road
We all want the same thing but we all not the same
All we know is no one really knows
Who's to say was the wrong way to go

No matter what they try to tell ya
Know that you are not lost
Though they question your direction
Know that you are not lost
Don't you let nobody tell you your way (tell you your way)
Don't you let nobody tell you your way (tell you your way)

    This song hit me hard. I just got fired from my job, now that I don't have a job, I can't go to school since I don't qualify for financial aid. I barely made it on my rent that was due this month. I thought about stripping but I don't want to make money that way and prove everyone right.

    i love this song so much😍😍😍😍😍😘😘😘 who with me.😊😊😊😊😊

  38. A.... G....

    Actually, this song is a lot better than I expected when I saw the title . . . a deeper message about hard work, following your dreams and, although I'm not sure if I understood "Houston curves" correctly, I think about racism in the dance world too.

    A.... G....

    it doesnt have to be about racism.. It's about people having misconceptions about others. It could be any race and gender. Its about not being valued

  39. k.... d....

    beautiful song !!!

  40. M.... O....

    Não canso de escuta-la! Amo esta música!

    Sara Bivens

  59. D.... ....

    In my opinion if Coming With You and Who's Taking You Home where the bonus songs the album would be a lot better and if the She Knows Remix was the original.

  60. A.... M....

    Eu acho que o Ne-Yo já deveria ter sido convidado para o Rock Rio há muito anos!

  61. T.... M....

    I lllloooovvvvveeeee this song sooooooooooooooooooooooo much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  62. J.... N....

    why isnt this song on spotify?? :(

    I love this drawing, wish my drawings were that detailed. This song is amazing though, I might start listening to it while reading.

  79. D.... E....

    This should have been the album's closer, not a bonus track. Incredible ballad.

  80. N.... E....

    Wow, this song is really good.

  81. S.... R....

    The best singer ever!

  82. S.... J....

    At first I wasn't looking forward to this album cause of the songs that I had heard and I kept comparing it to the year of the gentlemen which is insane but once listening to all the songs it's a pretty solid album (which the exception of a few)

    S.... J....

    +niserodn2010

    S.... J....

    Yea me too, after Libra Scale, R.E.D, and some of his songs with Pitbull I was skeptical because I loved his first three albums. But I'm hearing these audio versions on this channel and I'm very pleased wow.
