I'll Die Lyrics


We are who we choose to be
Im responsible for meIf I stay right here Ill die inside
Ran out of tears, I can barely get by
Its fair to say that we tried
You know I wanna stay, if I do Ill die
Ill die, Ill die, Ill die, Ill dieCoulda been another one of those
Coulda made it, coulda made it
Shoulda made it, had I gave it
Just a little bit more of my timeJust a little focus, coulda broke this
Woulda woke this, shoulda choked this
Had I chose bliss Id have left this infatuationFar behind, Ill exchange my mind
No more wasting time, this process is mine
In your eyes, my reflection is blind
In your arms I decide, this is our last nightGoodbye
I have to leave you
So long for you and IIf I stay right here Ill die inside
Ran out of tears, I can barely get by
Its fair to say that we tried

You know I wanna stay, if I do Ill die
Ill die, Ill die, Ill die, Ill dieBeen addicted to the burden of the gifted
To the sermon of the shifted, always praying to be lifted
Always settling, never bettering
How am I gonna win, if Im not listeningAlways asking for never noticing
Every move I make, this games reacting in
Perfect symmetry, Im my destiny, must invest in me
Or Im just gonna be victim of circumstanceAll is left to chance, how can I enhance?
Im afraid to dance
I must break this trance, 'cause its deafening
So Im breathing in, Im breathing in, Im breathing inBreath to get control of me
I have to beIf I stay right here Ill die inside
Ran out of tears, I can barely get by
Its fair to say that we tried
You know I wanna stay, if I do Ill die
Ill die, Ill die, Ill die, Ill dieWhats the use in living here yeah
If I dont feel alive forenied mistakes
So much Ive done, so much to cry
I cry, I got toIf I stay right here Ill die inside
Ran out of tears, I can barely get by
Its fair to say that we tried
You know I wanna stay, if I do Ill die
Ill die, Ill die, Ill die, Ill dieIll die, Ill die

Marsha Ambrosius and Natalie Stewart are the funky divas behind the neo-soul duo Floetry. Ambrosius and Stewart emerged in the mid-'90s as songwriters in demand. They're behind some of the new millennium's biggest hits, too. The pair has written tracks for Michael Jackson, Jill Scott, Glenn Lewis, and Bilal. While they're highly respected behind the scenes, Floetry is their way of moving up front.

Ambrosius is the songstress to Stewart's spoken word impresario or "floacist" role. The two met due to their love of basketball. Stewart, who hails from London, was a superstar on her court, while Ambrosius wowed fans in her local English neighborhood. They were competitive, but not rivals, so a friendship was formed. Music was also a passion. Ambrosius relished in her reggae roots while Stewart found herself grooving to funk and soul. While attending Brits Performing Arts School, Ambrosius studied business and finance, but made room for courses in voice, performance technique, and recording. Stewart split her time between acting and directing. Later, Ambrosius and Stewart headed to college.

Ambrosius planned to attend Georgia Tech University on a basketball scholarship, but injury forced her to bow out. Stewart headed for Middlesex University, eventually transferring to North London University. Still, they two kept in touch and raved about music. It wouldn't be until Stewart's girl group, 3 Plus 1, disbanded that Floetry would actually give music a serious shot.

In 1997, Ambrosius and Stewart began writing songs and playing shows in and around London. Three years later, they moved to America in search of something bigger. A brief stint in Atlanta didn't pan out, but their time spent in Philadelphia proved golden. Ambrosius and Stewart befriended Julius Erving III, basketball great Julius Erving's son, in mid-2000. Floetry and Erving clicked instantly. Erving signed on as their manager and hooked the ladies up with Jeff Townes, aka DJ Jazzy Jeff, for some recording. That's when the deals started trickling in -- Floetry were official and living out a dream. In 2002, they inked a deal with DreamWorks and touched up their own work for a debut album. Floetic appeared in October 2002, and its follow-up, Flo'Ology, reached the Top Ten upon release three years later.
