Take Me
Trina Feat. Pamela Long Lyrics

Take me to a place where I gotta be sexy
I want to be taken to a place where I am required to be sexually attractive

Just so, I can be considered as a lady
In order to be respected as a woman

Please, tell me why the world is so shady, baby
I am asking why the world is so dishonest

I wanna go to a world where I ain't gotta be a freak ho
I want to live in a world where I am not pressured to be promiscuous

Just, so I can be noticed by people
I want to be seen and acknowledged by others

Why is it lately?
I am wondering why it is so recently

These jealous hoes gotta hate me
These envious women dislike me

Niggas, won't give me no space
Men won't give me any room to breathe

They suffocate me
They are overwhelming me

I try to be myself, niggas, won't let me
I attempt to be authentic, but men won't allow it

They'd rather sweat me
They prefer to pursue me persistently

Ice, freeze and briget me
They think their wealth and possessions will impress me

But I ain't impressed with your hot car
I am not impressed with expensive material possessions

Nigga, I ain't got the lock jaws
I am not submissive to men

I ain't fixin' to drop draw's
I am not willing to have casual sex

These niggas, chase me like a cop, cop
Men pursue me persistently

In and out the Char' bottle
In and out of nightclubs

They wanna ball with a hot star
They want to hang out with a popular celebrity

They offer me grands for one night stands
Men offer me large amounts of money for sexual favors

But fuck that one night plan
But I am not interested in one-night stands

I'm looking for that one right man
I am searching for a long-term partner

To save the day, wrap me in his arms
To be my hero and embrace me with love and security

Take me away, late plight
Take me to a better situation in life

Till the break in the day
Until the dawn

Take me to a place where all my girls on top
I want to go to a place where women are empowered

Take me to a place where all the Benzes drop top
I want to go to a place where luxury cars are common

Take me to a place where I ain't gotta trick for grands
I want to go to a place where I don't have to sell my body for money

Take me to a place where my friend won't fuck my man
I want to go to a place where I don't have to worry about my partner cheating with my friends

Take me to a place where it's women with no hoes
I want to go to a place where women aren't labeled derogatory terms

Take me to a place where the thugs get early parole
I want to go to a place where people aren't unfairly punished for their past mistakes

Take me to a place where we ball, buying cases
I want to go to a place where we party and celebrate life

Diamond faces, united with all races
People of all different backgrounds are welcome and celebrated

Take me to a place where ain't no chalk traces or court cases
I want to go to a place where there is no crime or legal trouble

Or black faces on front pages
I want to go to a place where news isn't focused on negative events with black people

Take me to a place where the haters don't hate
I want to go to a place where there is no negativity or hostility

Take me away, Lord, knows I can't wait, come on
I am eager to leave this situation and start fresh

Every day, I gotta let it go
Every day, I must release my stress and worries

And spend the money on the one way ticket
I am willing to spend money to leave my current situation

To a world where shit is better, yo
To a better situation and environment

I be the same but a better ho
I will still be myself but in a better life situation

And do a version of Nann with Kirk Franklin for the chedda, yo
I would like to collaborate with Kirk Franklin on a remix of my song, for financial gain

They'll show my video on VH1, diva week
My video will be featured on VH1 during a week celebrating successful female musicians

Me, Whitney then Aretha speak
I will be among the top female musicians, including Whitney Houston and Aretha Franklin

I be on top of the world and still be a freak
Even if I am successful, I will still be considered promiscuous by some people

Although I'm doing my thing
Even though I am successful in my career

I see, I gotta eat 'cause where I'm from
I must continue to work hard because of my upbringing and background

Life ain't sweet
Life is tough

Take me, take me baby
Please, take me away

Where I wanna go baby
To a place that I desire

I don't wanna be a freak ho
I don't want to be labeled a promiscuous woman

No more, more
I am done with that lifestyle
