Mary J Blige – No More Drama

PURO SOUL. Esta actuación fue todo un descubrimiento para mi. Hasta entonces no había oído hablar nunca de Mary J Blige, y de repente viendo los Grammy del 2002 me encontré con esta maravilla. Me encanta y aún hoy es una de mis actuaciones preferidas. La emoción que le pone, la fuerza que transmite, la letra, el mensaje de la canción, ese final desgarrador… todo absolutamente todo, me pone los pelos de punta.

Con Mary J Blige me pasa algo curioso, y es que el sonido que tiene en las canciones grabadas en estudio, de album, no me acaba de convencer. Quizá es porque me tiene mal acostumbrado con sus directos, pero la verdad es que el sonido que tiene en directo no tiene nada que ver con el grabado en estudio. En directo es PURA ALMA.

Lyrics:

Broken heart again
Another lesson learned
Better know your friends
Or else you will get burned
Gotta count on me
‘Cos I can guarantee
That I’ll be fine

(No more pain) No more pain
(No more pain) No more pain
(No drama) No more drama in my life
(No more in my life)
No one’s gonna make me hurt again

Why’d I play the fool
Go through ups and downs
Knowing all the time
You wouldn’t be around
But maybe I like the stress
‘Cos I was young and restless
But that was long ago
I don’t wanna cry no more

Oh, It feels so good
When you let go of all the drama in your life
Now you’re free from all the pain
Free from all the games
Free from all the pain
Free from all the stress
To find your happiness

I don’t know
Only God knows where the story ends for me
But I know where the story begins
It’s up to us to choose
Whether we win or lose
And I choose to win

(No more pain)
No more pain, no more pain, tired of hurting
(No more games)
Tired of your playin’ games with my mind
(No drama) No more drama in my life
(No more in my life)
No more, no more, no more
No more, no more, no more
(No more tears)
No more tears, no more crying every night
(No more fears)
No more waking me up in the morning with your disturbing phone calls
(No drama) Leave me alone, go ahead
(No more in my life)

(No more pain) No more, I’m tired
(No more game)
No more games, I’m tired, I’m so tired
(No drama) No more, no more
(No more in my life)
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more

(No more drama)
I’m tired of all the drama
(No more drama)
Go ‘head, go ‘head
(No more drama)
Your demons gettin’ out of my face
Goin’ out my life
(No more drama)
I’m about to lose my mind
Lord help me, help me sing

No more drama

Oh help me sing
I need a piece of mind
A piece of mind, piece of mind
Well, I need
I need to know that you agree
Oh no, oh no
No more, no more, no more drama
No more drama in my, in my life

So tired, I’m so tired
So tired, tired of all this drama
Go ahead with all your drama
