Mary J. Blige - Checkin' for Me lyrics

You said you weren't mine so
I go on without you if you wanna shine
I'll let you shine without me
'Cause, I been to good to
Let you take me down
Dead in the street or let
You drive me to drinking
I'm feelin' good and really good about me
So don't even think the other men
Are not checkin' what you lost
Yeah, they're checkin'
They're checkin' for me

Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

You hurt me so bad but I'm not gonna cry
There's fish in the sea and
I might take a dive, too
To see who is deep or just as deep as me
See, I need a man
I didn't know you were that weak
Life is too short to be waiting on you
To make up your mind, so
Do what you gotta do, say yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Oh, life is too short to be waiting on you
Boy) yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm still alive now that you left me
(I'm still alive even though
That you're gone, yeah)
I will survive even though you're gone
(Even though you're gone I will survive)
I'm still alive now that you left me
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ooh)
Now my soul I can call my own
(Now my soul I can call my own)

Mmm, yeah, yeah yeah
My Lord, my Lord, my Lord, oh, my Lord
My Lord
