In 2001, she released her first single titled Never. Never ended becoming Perez' first charting single in her career, peaking at #79 on the Billboard Hot 100. In April 2002, she released her first album titled Where You At?, under the independent label, Powerhouse Records. Although the album did not chart on the Billboard 200, it was hit in the eastern part of the United States, and made her a local celebrity in her hometown. It also brought the attention of Virgin Records, who signed her later that year and decided to release a re-worked version of Where You At? nationally.
In 2003, the re-worked version of the album, this time titled Angel, was released nationally. It peaked at #73 on Billboard 200, and spawned two singles, Angel and I Like It. Angel was released as the first single from the album, and peaked at #20 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming her first and only Top 20 single. Her second single, I Like It did not chart on the Billboard Hot 100, but became a club and urban hit for Perez.
In 2004, Perez released her third album titled I Pray. The album peaked lower than her previous album, peaking at #90 on the Billboard 200, and only one single was released from the album. The single, I Pray, failed to chart on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming her first single to fail to chart.
In 2007, Perez released her fourth album titled The Hand of Fate. The album peaked at #38 on the Billboard 200.

Amanda Perez Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You been giving me so much lately.
Oh, I love the way you make me feel.
For you boy, I fell head over heels.
You make me want to say,
Ooohh baby baby.[2x]
your love I'll never deny.
The way you hold me tight,
the way you feel so right,
your love oh I like.
Baby, I'm yours.
You can give me your lovin' every day,
and I'll still need more.
Oh you make me want to say,
Oooohhh baby baby.[4x]
I'm just about at the end of my road,
but I can't stop trying,
I can't give up hope,
'cause I feel one day I'll hold you dear,
whisper I still love you,
until that day is here.
Oooohhh baby baby[4x]

The chorus emphasizes how the way he makes her feel, apart from his love, is all that she lives for. She becomes overwhelmed and expresses her feelings with a sensual call.
The second verse highlights the importance of the moments they share, the way he holds her, and the comforting feeling that his love generates in her. She claims she is his and no matter how much he gives her, her need for him will never cease.
