Nothing&#039;s black or white, its all just a shade of gray---<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> TI &quot;Live your Life&quot; ft Rihanna


(Chorus) No i don't wanna sleep tonight
without my lullaby, my lullaby-----
i just cant sleep tonight
(without my lullaby) by my side
Your my lullaby &lt;333

(instrumental; rapper warms up)

(rap. Preferably a guy like B.O.B or drake to accompany my best friend)
Yeah, your my lullaby
How you sing is so damn beautiful like a star in the sky
Stars in the sky twinkle just like your eyes
Your eyes i wish i was looking into tonight
i know we're supposed to be mad, but i have wants and needs
And in them all i only see you and me
And me telling you i miss you, i wanna kiss you
And everything in between

(female solo) (you were the one to help me sleep peacefully)

(rap) Once upon a time, a long time ago
You were by my side, every night that goes
But now your gone, and my bed's lonely without you next to me!!
Sing it girl

(chorus) i dont wanna sleep tonight
Without my lullaby, my lullaby----
No, i wont sleep tonight
without you by my side
My sweetest lullaby &lt;3

(rap)i cant help it if i cant get you off my mind
i tried to stop believe you me i tried
It's never easy when you're losing someone you love and you cant rewind (playback)
And now I'm plunging into darkness
Cause light ain't worth it without you here
In the dark, all alone, so tired but i cant sleep

(F solo) (i need my lullaby!)

(rap) Now i ain't saying we are perfect
We were never a Romeo &amp; Juliet love story
We started a war, i lost the fight
Now I'll never have a good night

(F solo) (I'm so lost in loving you)

(rap) i know we got our differences, our negatives
But i swear I'd do anything to taste you again
Whether its bitter or sweet, it'd be good for me!

(chorus) I'm not gonna sleep tonight
Without my lullaby, your my lullaby---
i wanna feel safe &amp; secure; in your arms where you hold me tight
Give me your lullaby and i will be alright

(singer) Lullabies go sweet and low
But you sing a different pace
And I'm liking it
And I'm feeling it
Just like i feel you
Right here beside me
Now vacant, with only our memories to fill the spaces!

(Instrumental)

(singer and rapper) i could still hear your lullaby, even if your miles away
i could still feel your soft breathing against my ear
i could still hear the song you sang every night
Cause you haunt me, with your memories

(a loud boom effect)

(singer) miles away


The author's comments:
Ok i made up the chorus one day randomly and it stuck with me. Usually, I'm so lazy in songwriting so i make up lyrics on the spot, then never write anything down and forget them. But i DID come up with the official lyrics to this hip hoppy song because of my best friend who wants to be a singer when she gets older. i wrote the song for her to sing when she IS an artist.

Inspirational. :) i'd very much like to see you find a few friends, preform this, and put it on youtube. I think with the right beat and the right person behind it, it'd be a good song.
