    Lyrics -
    [Intro: Timbaland]
    Ah, ah, I'm tired of arguin', girl
    I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired
    Huh, I'm tired of arguin', girl
    Huh, I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired
    Huh, I'm tired of arguin', girl
    Freaky-freaky-freaky-freaky, baby girl, huh
    [Verse 1: Aaliyah]
    Did you sleep on the wrong side, I'm catching a bad vibe
    And it's contagious, what's the latest?
    Speak your heart, don't bite your tongue
    Don't get it twisted (Yeah), don't misuse it
    What's your problem, let's resolve it
    We can solve it, what's the causes?
    It's official, you got issues
    I got issues (Um, well you got issues), but I know I miss you
    [Chorus: Aaliyah]
    (Am I supposed to change, are you supposed to change?)
    Yeah, who should be hurt, who should be blamed?
    (Am I supposed to change, are you supposed to change?)
    Who should be hurt, who should be ashamed?
    (Am I supposed to change, are you supposed to change?)
    Who should be hurt, will we remain? Oh, I
    We need a resolution, we need a resolution
    We need a resolution, we have so much confusion
    [Verse 2: Aaliyah]
    I wanna know, where were you last night?
    I fell asleep on the couch, I thought we were going out
    I wanna know, were your fingers broke?
    If you had let me know I wouldn't have put on my clothes
    (I wanna know) Where'd you go instead?
    It was four in the morning when you crept back in the bed
    I wanna know, what was in your head?
    Or what was in my head, am I supposed to change?
    [Chorus: Aaliyah]
    (Am I supposed to change, are you supposed to change?)
    Oh, who should be hurt, who should be blamed?
    (Am I supposed to change, are you supposed to change?)
    Who should be hurt, who should be ashamed?
    (Am I supposed to change, are you supposed to change?)
    Oh, who should be hurt and will we remain?
    We need a resolution, we need a resolution
    We need a resolution, we have so much confusion
    (Am I supposed to change, are you supposed to change?)
    Who should be hurt and who should be blamed?
    (Am I supposed to change, are you supposed to change?)
    Who should be hurt, who should be ashamed?
    (Am I supposed to change, are you supposed to change?)
    Who should be hurt, will we remain?
    We need a resolution, we need a resolution
    We need a resolution, we have so much confusion
    [Post-Chorus: Aaliyah & Timbaland]
    Baby, let me know, you'll let me know (I will)
    You'll let me know, you'll let me know (I will)
    You'll let me know, you'll let me know (I will)
    You'll let me know, you'll let me know
    [Verse 3: Timbaland]
    Girl, holla
    You give me bits and pieces
    You tryna blame me when I don't even know the reason
    I think it's just the season
    Maybe the month, maybe you're bleeding
    Now tell me what's the reason?
    Snoop video? Looks are deceiving
    So, cut the crying, cut the coughing, cut the wheezing, girl
    Quit the blaming, cut the naming, cut the sneaking, girl
    I think you need some prayer, better call a deacon, girl
    So get your act right or else we won't be speaking, girl
    So what's it gonna be?
    Freaky-freaky, me and you?
    Or is it gonna be, who blames who?
    I'm tired of these things, I'm tired of these scars
    I think I'm gonna get me a drink, I'll call you tomorrow, ooh

      @@macabree5856 Sorry but by the time this video came out this was the peak of Aaliyah’s career and the downfall of Mariahs. Wasn’t Mariah’s career deemed Over during this time due to her psychotic mental breakdown and failure of a movie glitter with its failure soundtrack. Wasn’t she such a mental case she bombarded TRL and did a strip tease in front of children/minors. Mariah wasn’t even as popular anymore during this. JLo was even bigger then Mariah during this time. There was a whole new wave of Hip Hop and R&B that was steady taking over. Also what does Mariah have anything to do with Aaliyah!?

      Selena was relegated to a niche genre & demographic - Tejano. She was slowly breaking into pop. But Aaliyah already WAS pop & was about to have an A list movie career, and was known in the mainstream-heavily played on MTV, BET, VH1, etc.. No comparison to each other whatsoever-looks, style, musically, etc. other than them passing prematurely. Selena is more comparable and 1000x more musically talented) to J.Lo. There would absolutely be no J.Lo had Selena lived. Had Aaliyah even lived a few years longer- she would’ve stomped out J.Lo’s music career in the mid-2000’s lol…as she already had her “Nuyorican” demographic on lock.

    Aaliyah will never be replaced never duplicated untouched. She was unstoppable. No one will ever be able to match her skills. She had them all. From her self image and iconic looks, to her singing and dancing. Just heaven and gold. She worked hard, she fought till the end, accomplished her goals, and it payed off. She lived such a short life but was able to fulfill her dreams. She had class swag taste beauty talent beyond words. Aaliyah you are deeply missed and the whole world keeps sharing and streaming your music through the years. You are truly one in a million and forever cherished. Your songs are timeless classic futuristic. Your legacy lives on and your music will continue to touch the hearts of so many people. From the old to the new generations. We might age and get older but your music will forever be with us. It will never fade. But remain alive. Aaliyah you are a blessing in my life and the life of others. Thank God for the short time that you were here on earth. Thank you for giving us life to breath, for giving us hope, joy happiness and peace through your music. You brighten and made us smile. You are sincerely missed. Life has never been the same since you left this world but we have your music legacy and videos. That never ages. But remains in our hearts. God bless you always. Rest well babygirl Aaliyah.

I wish she would have really focused on a specific personality instead of just being an “it” girl. She doesn’t effortlessly move like she’s different, which is something aaliyah did very well. Tinashe is very “look at me!!!“ and it puts people off. I personally don’t like 333. I loved anything nightride and mixtape days. It felt more like the music was more curated to fit together.

    This song, both lyrically and vocally, is SO insanely underrated/underappreciated. Lyrically, this song talks about a relationship that is in this weird limbo. Like, it’s about to fall apart and the singer doesn’t know if it’s their fault or their partner’s or what, ya know? So they’re like, “we need to fix this. We need to fix us”. So she’s asking, “well, who needs to change their ways? me or you?” And then lists things that are in need of changing. Then the other person (Tim), playing the partner, comes in and is like, “nah, I don’t need this rn. I’m going to the bar”. So there is no resolution. Nothing changes. That’s what’s cool about this song. And then add in these very subtle, deceptive vocals that are actually pretty hard and good skill-wise: the vocal fluttering, the way she holds notes in her head voice, how easily she glides between her head, chest, and full voice. It’s insane. And on top of that, the music makes it rather challenging to sing to (which Timb’s beats always did for R&B/Pop singers). But Aaliyah always met, and exceeded, the challenge. His beats were always easier and made more for rappers. But Aaliyah was like “bet” and did the damn thing. Not to mention the cool sci-fi violin(?) sample they put, which they sampled from John Ottoman’s “Tricks of the trade” from the Incognito soundtrack (the sample is pulled from 1:27 in the original song, but used throughout here)
