If I were a Boy (feat. R. Kelly)

Adrian (an old, sweet friend of mine) was driving me down to JB when we heard this song in the car. It's kinda funny... Let's enjoy the song and read the lyrics. For me, I see how God has created man and woman being different yet complimentary towards each other. So my conclusion would be it is better to be happy being who we are instead of trying to be who others want us to be. I've been through that phase and I had enough of it. I'm now stuck in situations where people are deciding what I should be doing at this moment... Oh well, God help me see the goodwill out of it.




Here's the lyrics for pondering purpose:

If I were a boy
even just for a day
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
and throw on what I wanted and go
Drink beer with the guys
and chase after girls
I'd kick it with who I wanted
and I'd never get confronted for it
cause they stick up for me
If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her
Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
Cause he's taking you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
(R. Kelly)
If you were a boy
then girl you'd understand
you need to stop listening to your friends
love, respect and trust your man
So I go to clubs with the guys
and sometimes flirt with the girls
I should be able to roll out
as long as Im coming home to you
and give you the world
But you are not a boy,
so you dont have a clue (ey)
How I work and pay the bills
girl and everything I do is for you (eh eh)
(Beyonce)
I'd listen to her
Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
Cause he's taking you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
If I were a Boy (Beyonce)
If I were a Girl (Kelly)
I would turn off my phone (Beyonce)
I wouldn't play games (Kelly)
Tell everyone it's broken
so they'd think that I was sleeping alone (Beyonce)
Girl you know thats wrong (Kelly)
Id put myself first
and make the rules as I go
Cause I know that shell be faithful,
waiting for me to come home, to come home.
But you are not a boy,
so you can't understand
You are not a perfect woman
and I am not a perfect man (with me, with me)
I'd listen to her (eh eh)
Cause I know how it hurts (Kelly: and I know how you feel)
When you lose the one you wanted
Cause he's taking you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
Kelly: Said Im sorry
It's a little too late for you to come back
but I cant let you go
cause Im too attached (Kelly)
If you thought I would wait for you
you thought wrong
But you're just a boy
