Ashanti, Ja Rule - Helpless lyrics

Yeah i like the way I came in
Rule ashanti
Lin

Baby, I'm helpless look into your eyes
And the sky’s the limit I’m helpless, baby
Down for the count, and I’m drownin’ in ‘em

I ain't ever been the type to
Try and grab the spotlight
We were at the revel with some
Rebels on a hot night
Laughin’ at my sister as
She dazzling the room

Tryin’ to catch your eye from
The side of the ballroom
Everybody’s dancin’ and the bass top volume
Grind to the rhythm as we wine and dine
Saying to myself, "Baby, this one’s mine"

Shorty made her way across the room to you
And I got nervous
Thinking "What’s she gonna do?"
She grabbed you by the arm
I’m thinkin’ "I’m through"
Then you look back at me and suddenly I’m

Helpless, yeah look into your eyes
And the sky’s the limit I’m helpless, baby
Down for the count, and I’m drownin’ in ‘em

Helpless, yeah look into your eyes
And the sky’s the limit I’m helpless, baby
Down for the count, and I’m drownin’ in ‘em

One week later, I’m writin’ a letter nightly
Now my life gets better
Every letter that you write me
Laughin’ at this girl
'cause she wants to form a harem
Naw, I ain't sharin'
Two weeks later, in the living room stressin’
My father’s stone-faced while you’re
Asking for his blessin’
I’m dying inside, as you wine and dine
And I’m tryin’ not to cry
‘Cause there’s nothing that your
Mind can’t do

My father makes his way across
The room to you i panic for a second
Thinking "we’re through"
But then he shakes your hand
And says "be true"
And you turn back to me, smiling, and I’m

Helpless, yeah look into your eyes
And the sky’s the limit I’m helpless, baby
Down for the count, and I’m drownin’ in ‘em
Helpless, yeah look into your eyes
And the sky’s the limit I’m
Helpless (so helpless) baby
Down for the count, and I’m drownin’ in ‘em

Ashanti, I ain't got a dollar to my name
An acre of land, a troop to command
A dollop of fame
All I have’s my honor, a tolerance for pain
A couple of college credit's and
My top notch brain
Insane, your family brings out a
Different side of me peggy confides in me
Angelica tried to take a bite of me
No stress, my love for you is never in doubt
We’ll get a little place in Queens
And we’ll figure it out
I’ve been living without my family
Since I was a child
My father died, my mama cried
I grew up buckwild
But, I’ll never forget my mother’s face
That was real
And long as I’m alive, Ashanti, swear to God
You’ll never feel so… (Baby, I'm)

Helpless, yeah look into your eyes
And the sky’s the limit I’m helpless, baby
Down for the count, and I’m drownin’ in ‘em
Helpless, yeah (I'm so helpless)
Look into your eyes
And the sky’s the limit I’m
(Cause you know that I'm) helpless, baby
Down for the count, and I’m drownin’ in ‘em
Baby I'm yeah
Mm, so into you so into you
Hahaha
