Helpless (feat. Ja Rule)

Lyrics

Yeah
 Like the way I came here
 Rule

 Baby I'm Helpless
 Look into your eyes, and the sky's the limit I'm
 Helpless, baby
 Down for the count, and I'm drownin' in 'em
 I ain't ever been the type to try and grab the spotlight
 We were at the revel with some rebels on a hot night
 Laughin' at my sister as she's dazzling the room
 Then you walked in and my heart said
 Tryin' to catch your eye from the side of the ballroom
 Everybody's dancin' and the bass top volume
 Grind to the rhythm as we wine and dine
 Saying to myself, baby
 "This one's mine."
 Shorti made her way across the room to you
 And I got nervous, thinking "What's she gonna do?"
 She grabbed you by the arm, I'm thinkin' "I'm through"
 Then you look back at me and suddenly I'm
 Helpless, yeah
 Look into your eyes, and the sky's the limit I'm
 Helpless, baby
 Down for the count, and I'm drownin' in 'em
 Helpless, yeah
 Look into your eyes, and the sky's the limit I'm
 Helpless, baby
 Down for the count, and I'm drownin' in 'em
 One week later, I'm writin' a letter nightly
 Now my life gets better, every letter that you write me
 Laughin' at this girl, cuz she wants to form a harem
 ...No, I ain't sharin'
 Two weeks later, in the living room stressin'
 My father's stone-faced while you're asking for his blessin'
 I'm dying inside, as you wine and dine
 And I'm tryin' not to cry
 'Cause there's nothing that your mind can't do
 My father makes his way across the room to you
 I panic for a second, thinking "we're through"
 But then he shakes your hand and says "be true"
 And you turn back to me, smiling, and I'm
 Helpless, yeah
 Look into your eyes, and the sky's the limit I'm
 Helpless, baby
 Down for the count, and I'm drownin' in 'em
 Helpless, yeah
 Look into your eyes, and the sky's the limit I'm
 Helpless, (so helpless) baby
 Down for the count, and I'm drownin' in 'em
 Ashanti, I don't have a dollar to my name
 An acre of land, a troop to command, a dollop of fame
 All I have's my honor, a tolerance for pain
 A couple of college credits and my top-notch brain
 Insane, your family brings out a different side of me
 Peggy confides in me, Angelica tried to take a bite of me
 No stress, my love for you is never in doubt
 We'll get a little place in Queens and we'll figure it out
 I've been livin' without a family since I was a child
 My father died, my mother cried, I grew up buck wild
 But I'll never forget my mother's face, that was real
 And long as I'm alive, Ashanti, swear to God
 You'll never feel so...
 Baby I'm
 Helpless, yeah
 Look into your eyes, and the sky's the limit I'm
 Helpless, baby
 Down for the count, and I'm drownin' in 'em
 Helpless, yeah (I'm so helpless)
 Look into your eyes, and the sky's the limit I'm
 (Cause you know that I'm)
 Helpless, baby
 Down for the count, and I'm drownin' in 'em
 Baby I'm
 (Yeah)
 Mm, so into you
 (So into you
 Hahaha)
