[Krayzie Bone - 1]
Break, breakdown, steady breaking me on down
Break, breakdown, steady breaking me on down
Break, breakdown, steady breaking me on down
Break, breakdown, steady breaking me on down

[Mariah Carey]
You called yesterday
To basically say
That you care for me but
That you're just not in love
Immediately I pretended to be feeling similarly
And led you to believe I was OK
To just walk away from the one thing
That's unyielding and sacred to me

[Chorus]
Well I guess I'm trying not to be nonchalant about it
And I'm going to extremes to prove I'm fine without you
But in reality I'm slowly losing my mind
Underneath the guise of smile gradually I'm dying inside
Friends ask me how I feel and I lie convincingly
Cause I don't want to reveal the fact that I'm suffering
So I wear my disguise till I go home at night
Then turn down all the lights and then I breakdown and cry

[Mariah Carey]
So what do you do when somebody you're so devoted to
Suddenly just stops loving you and it seems they haven't got a clue
Of the pain that rejection is putting you through
Do you cling to your pride and sing "I Will Survive"
(Gotta get control and roll roll roll on) (x4 in background)
Do you lash out and say
How dare you leave this way
Do you hold on in vain as they as they just slip away

[Chorus] - with 1 repeated in background

[Wish Bone]
Yeah, come on, yeah come on come on

[Mariah Carey]
I'm gonna breakdown

[Krayzie Bone]
Break, breakdown
Gotta get control and roll roll roll on
Steady breaking me on down
Gotta get control and roll roll roll on

[Mariah Carey]
I'm gonna breakdown

[Krayzie Bone]
Break, breakdown
Gotta get control and roll roll roll on
Steady breaking me on down
Gotta get control and roll on

[Wish Bone]
Gonna break you down
Only if you let it
Everyday crazy situations rocking my mind
Trying to break me down
But I won't let it
Forget it (Forget it)

[Krayzie Bone]
I be feeling like your breaking me down
Kicking me around, stressing me out
I think you better go and get out
And let me release some stress (stress)

[Wish Bone]
Don't ever wanna feel no pain (pain)
Hoping for the sun but it looks like rain (rain, rain, rain)
Lord, I just wanna maintain

[Krayzie Bone]
Yeah, I'm feeling pressures y'all
But nevertheless Krayzie won't fall
It's over, it's ending here (here)

[Chorus] repeated until fade (With 1 and Mariah singing "Cry" throughout)
