Should I Go Lyrics

I'm standing on the edge of the industry
Wondering if it's all that important to me
To get my records back out there on the streets
It ain't like I'm hurting or anything
I'm to the point right now where money ain't an issue
I can roll where I want to, do what I wanna do
Tempted to leave it in my rear-view
Because this game ain't what I'm used to

CHORUS:
Should I go?
Should I stay?
I'm in control, either way
Should I go?
Should I stay?
I'm in control, either way
Should I go?
Should I stay?
I'm in control, either way
Should I go?
Should I stay?
I'm in control, either way

It used to be a few artists at a time
Now, even the veterans wait in line
Pre-mature release all these albums online
Makin' it hard for real entertainers to shine
If you manage to defeat all these odds against you
Keep doin' your thang 'cause I'm not mad at you
Just tryin' to figure out where I fit into
All of this now, or if I do

CHORUS:
Should I go?
Should I stay?
I'm in control either way
Should I go?
Should I stay?
I'm in control either way
Should I go?
Should I stay?
I'm in control either way
Should I go?
Should I stay?
I'm in control either way

This industry was more like a different world
When it was just me, Monica, and Babygirl
Aaliyah, I never got to tell you how much you meant
I wish you and me both was sittin' here workin with Tim
Just to be in the presence of people that you affected on a personal level
Just makes me stop for a second (pause & exhale)
You were such a blessing
You help me answer all of my questions

BRIDGE:
Well, I gave it some time
And I made up my mind
Move over, this is my time
B-Rocka's back on the grind

Oh oh oh oh
Ooooooh ooooh oh oh oh
Oh oh ooooh oooh
Oh oh whoa ooooh oh

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I think it's so cool that she sampled Coldplay's "Clocks". She's obviously contemplating finishing her career as an artist and quitting or whatever. And that she mentions Aaliyah and them is pretty awesome too. =]
