Lyrics:
There's something that I wanna say
I feel a little out of place
But I need you to make that change
You promised, to keep me out of the rain
I love the cars and everything
The diamond rings but I loved you much more, baby
You said, that you were gonna stop when you
Had enough, you'd do what you had to do
Now you, like the profession you've made it for yourself
You said, you cared about me and you
Now all, you wanna do is hustle you
Gotta choose, whatcha gonna do and am I worth it to you baby
Never thought I'd be afraid to trust (to trust)
Somebody that I love so much
If I can get him out of the streets
Then he could come back to me
Now I see that there ain't no us
Baby to me that's a definite plus
If I can't get you out of the streets
Then you don't need to be with me
One of the most underrated Monica songs in my opinion.
Facts!
My favorite song of Monica.
THE BEST
so much of her discography is. Her first 2 albums were the soundtrack of my childhood.
2024 & still sounding current, fresh and authentic ❤.
I am here blasting it🎉 13 June 2024🎉🎉🎉
Listening to it 13 July 2024
9/1/2024.. Timeless❤
Love this song.
Street Symphony is Monica's Greatest Masterpiece in my opinion !!!!!
I agree
Hell yeah
natedoggg2002 YESSSSSS
natedoggg2002 I've always said the same thing.
I completely agree with you this song is an all time favorite Monica is truly legendary
This song is so underrated.
🎯
It’s criminal
Very!
Exactly. I heard it on a video and wanted to listen to it in full.
I forgot how beautiful it is. And the video 🥰🥰🥰
The lyrics in this song are so true. Trying to change someone that is not ready to change, all you can do is walk away.
So true. Too bad it's taken me 15 years to realize that he just doesn't want to change and get clean.
Doesn’t always work like that. Not what she is talking about lol
This is about C-Murder along with Ring Da Bell, Inside, I Keep It To Myself to name a few. The Boy Is Mine is a great song, but it stirred up rumors. The music industry did that on purpose to have them fighting over a man.
Absolutely because I waited 5 years and he still chose the other females and the street
@@MamaofaWrestlerhe killed him self
How on earth did this song not chart in the top ten when it was released? The beat alone is sick. Monica, Brandy and Aaliyah are the true queens of RnB.
DaveTennisX3 topped the charts in South Africa for a good part of 1998. Remained a fan request favourite throughout 1999 (along with All N' My Grill by Missy Elliot)
And Ashanti
Yes the beat is sick. Thanks to Dallas Austin for the production.
DaveTennisX3 ????? MARY J. BLIGE?????
DaveTennisX3 you are so right
Monica is so legendary! This younger generation don't know what they're missing out on.
i feel you on that one, this song takes me back
I totally agree. Great music and I loved that girls stayed classy and confident. I mean they didn't have to show off their bodies. Their talent was enough!😊
Monica always kept it classy!
Male Madonna the 90's music is so much better then the crap they come out with now days
Yes wish I could turn back the hands of time best era yet..
Didn't cherish it enough 😞
This and Brandys 'angel in disguise' are both still stunning.
Are you a 78er
@@GNA4748 sure am. Still feel 25 and it's RNB all over. Miss those days.
Interesting coz I feel like they played those cuts after each other in their verzuz lol
Facts
I was shocked she didn't play it during Verzuz
Monica's vocals, the orchestra, the beat! This song was perfection from top to bottom!
As a kid it was always on repeat on of her breast hits that went unnoticed
Yessss one of her best
So true ❤❤❤❤❤
omg you know when you hear a song you used to listen to nonstop then forgot about it for a couple decades...then you hear it again? CHILLS
👋👋👋👋😊👋 My phone is Good morning to miss you my love me if phone is Good morning to up my phone is ok to call me if phone is Good morning to u ok to go back to me if phone is Good morning to miss love
@@ebonypittman5512 k))ll)k
Facts….back here in 2024
Tears!😭
This when music tell a story...God I miss the 90's music...Monica such a great vocalist
With a nice video to go along with it that actually makes sense.
Yes me too
Wish we could pause this decade of music. I felt every song
What? So you don’t like the songs that go, “work, work, work, work, work”
I miss the 90's music
This orchestra tho!!!
Yes also the beat and her singing, it's what I love about this song. It's one of my favorite from her. She's truly a legend.
La'Cherica Clark I know so progressive
BEAUTIFUL AS EVER!!👏👏👏👍👍👍💙💙💙🥇🙌
That's my fave part of the composition
I thought that was pretty sick when I first heard it as well. I still play this song whenever I think of Monica. I never knew it didn’t chart that well.
This song puts me in a different place
Hands down, best Monica song so far 🖤
It really is! I hate how it didn’t and still doesn’t get the respect it deserves because this song AND video is just a masterpiece!
Brandy Monica and Aaliyah were the R&B teen princesses of the 90s❤️❤️❤️
Love how they play the violins while break dancing. So awsome!
Heard this song and almost 20 years later, I still love it. I think Monica is supposed to be greater than she is.
Still my favorite song 20 years later
+Adams Ibrahim ALWAYS felt that way, I shared my sentiments with her record label many, many years ago, this was one of my favorites too!
Adams Ibrahim Yes, she was really being groomed to be similar to Whitney Houston.
cause when im gone its gonna be to late facts
Adams Ibrahim what happened yo 🎵
Aaliyah, Brandy, and Monica are truly R&B legends
Big Dezzle dnt 4get Ashanti too!!
sweett1016 yeah but she didn’t come in this era so....
rip babygirl u are missed always
Nobody mention Mya?😕
Christopher inok I love song dearly
How tf is this sitting at under 100million views????
🎯
Me. Street Symphony is a timeless, classic, orchestral masterpiece. You've never in your life heared music with this level of artistry in your life. The best song from her in my opinion. ❤. The world played and slept on this song. Monica deserves so much more respect.
I had two copies of this album. One for the car and one for the house. LOL!
same here somebody jacked my last two copies but I have an idea I think I know who did it my sister we were serious about that Monica vs Brandy in the 90's LOL.
When you could buy a whole album AND ENJOY IT lol
Same!!
U sweet as a cake!!!
kgoldmon you are so right CUZ this song I still bump to the max!!!!!!
This song was so therapeutic at such a young age. Monica helped me through such a hard choice with this masterpiece. Went through this with my first love from age 4 and how we grew up most don't make it out. He got caught up with the wrong crowd and she told me to love myself more. That gave me the courage to walk away. Time passed we reconnected and he said that hard choice made him turn his life around. Today we're married and have a gorgeous child. He is such a great husband, dad and provider. 🥰
Your first love from age 4? So at age 4 you had already attained a love so strong that it warrants this RUclips comment. Geez some of you write anything just for attention.
Absolutely because I was waiting for 5 years on a man I was with but he kept chosing the street and street females I couldn't understand why because I was doing all I could for this man and he still wouldn't do right all I did was work and come home and be there for him when he needed me but when I needed him he was never there when I called he didn't answer he texts I had to realize for myself that this wasn't the person for me and I'm wasting myself in my life away waiting on somebody that's not going to change in our life is women we go through so much trying to please a man but now I'm trying to please I have learned if I'm not happy with myself I will let anybody run over me and do me any kind of way and that's not the life I wanted to and I'm here to let you know ladies that he's regretting it 100% but I won't have nothing to do with him because when you had this prize you didn't know how to accept it and keep it so I let that go with the past in the wind and it blew away it is you can see if I can smile on my face I am truly happy and blessed
😊
Wow, that's so sweet of you. 🥺🥺😢😢and here it's like am going through the same scenario. I wish she comes back to me. 😊
❤
That iconic gown. Breathtaking
I’ve been trying to find it for yearsssss with no luck!
Monica was one of the most underrated artists of her generation. So much respect for herself and such an inspiration to young women. Unlike all this Cardi B shit going on now.
The best and most underrated Monica song of all time! 😍
This song means so much I used to deal with a dude in the streets and when he died I died with him I'm grown now but baby baby if I could of got you outta the streets (sigh)

Leslie Johnson Leslie,you got me cry in girl.serious that is heartbreaking.so sad.u are strong😢😢
Leslie Johnson man this comment just wrecked me cuz it’s so heart breaking....
Leslie Johnson Exactly why i love it too #RIPLB 💞😞💯
Same here R.I.P Mo 😢
This song is legend. That dress she is wearing that takes up the whole city is iconic!
Simply Joey say that 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
1 of my all-time favorites by Monica 👍
good morning Staycee. have a gr8 day my friend.
Same
+Staycee me too my favorite looks like Aaliyah
Nohamme Kellz ☺
+Staycee mine too. This video used to mesmerize me every time I saw it on BET as a kid... the endless gown and the overall dark theme and mood of the video and song
This song has touched my very soul TODAY… 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽, listening Oct 2023 Thank you Monica ❤️
Monica exudes elements of Whitney so much in this song. From her dress, looks, attitude and voice. and i know she's stated that dancing is not her area of forte lol. I love her!
this song was sick. The violins on this song right here!!! I iss this type of music
This whole album was Fire..... this was my favorite track though. Instrumental is dope- no pun intended LOL
that dress is everything
This is one of my favorite songs of all time
Mine too 💯👊🏽
of all time ? Thats good :)
When Brandy played "angel in disguise" Monica should have hit her back with this CLASSIC joint!
Sooo agree
This song was definitely the answer to Angel in Disguise. It hurts my heart every time I think about how she didn’t play this during the Verzuz, I just knew she would smh!
She always plays herself down when Brandy is involved, imo.
The artistry behind this makes this a classic. No song could ever compare. I love this song. Street Symphony is that shit!
Aaliyah's I Refuse... go listen to it... also a masterpiece
Hands Down One Of Her FINEST Tracks
Tomas Jephersin and underrated as well
Hands down one of the finest female's thats ever lived
Agree
Future goal: to wear a dress that fills a whole damn room like a boss...
1234567890
Lol😂👍
Shoeting Star yesss honey I'm n love wit this dress...still a banger in 2017
Shoeting Star 🎯
Shoeting Star mines too
This beat though ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
🎯 especially in my truck
It's a CRIME she didn't play it on verzuz. This is her best song!
Can't believe they Skip a whole fuckin cd
@@divinechocolat3469 Nooo, they did The First Night, though.
@Clockwork It's a really good R&B album. I miss the 'black' P!nk.
It’s sad she forgot to play this. I think they need a Redo!
Yes it is one of her best songs to me
God bless this era....Yoh....it was just hit after hit all round everywhere
not a Monica fan but I was obsessed with this track. it still has a kick
2023 and this song still gives me shivers...the orchestra, lyrics and Monica's beautiful voice ❤
Still loving this song in 2023 🎶🤍
Monica always had wonderful music ❤
Trust me this is my favourite In all Monica's songs
This is one of my favorite Monica songs, this whole album was great but this track right here would play on repeat. The lyrics are something that’s still relevant today actually now that I’m thinking about it I’m surprised nobody has redone this song. Hope they don’t…it’s a masterpiece 🎶🎵
i get in my feelings whenever i hear this song
Wow..This song hit different now im 33. Damn 🤞🔥💯❤️
Still resonates in 2024
"Never thought I'd be afraid to trust, somebody that I love so much".💙💎
The 2000s era was just unmatched!!!!!
Who mad she didnt play this in verzuz ....🙋🏾♀️
Heated! I kept typing it in the comments that the DJ needed to play it, but they ain't hear me. LOL
Omg. Was waiting to hear it. I had hope then it ended.
.
Tru Blue Soul very mad. She didn’t even dig into the music 🙄🙄
She played mostly hood classics. That's why Brandy won imo...she had a good spread
I remember this video and album. This was when she was with C-Murder. I loved this song so much.
No she was with her first love and he killed himself in front of her
2024. I decided to run this entire album back, with the exception of TBIM. It is such a classic album and the lyrics and production of Street Symphony is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I told my fiance this in 1999 I felt uneasy in my spirit..he was from Detroit a hustler to his name..I could care less about the money his life and freedom meant everything!He finally listened to me and was about to go back to school and Get a Job..2 weeks later He would be murdered in Minneapolis MN 😞He had so much potential I miss him So much RIP Duane Lee Russel (Bud)Gone but always in my heart see you in Paradise❤
Sorry Here That
@@shannonbrown2342 thank you❤️
This song has soo much FEELING. I Love how Monica puts her heart into every song she sings. This one STILL gives me chills! Perfect lyrics, Instrumentals,and video...
Yes, she is just truly amazing.♥️
This was her best album she had out back in the day!!!
+Natasha Jean 2nd best to me. 1st was Miss Thang.
+J Princeton he'll yeah. I still play Miss Thang album
J Princeton Miss Thang album was the best to me
First time I heard this song I was young and reckless, little did I know that person is talking indirectly to me, I couldn't hear her cry. I did my thing, served my time and fast forward 2015 as I was paying my last respect to her, I played it once more. So long my friend, continue to rest in eternal peace and you're deeply missed💔
Monica, thank you so much for this masterpiece. Through you, we can connect with those ones we grew up with and no longer in a space to see them once more. Big up❤️
"If I can't get him out of the streets, then he don't need to be with me"...❗👏
*"if I can get him outta these streets then he don't need to be with me." It's about her role in the relationship.
After more than 20 years I come back to this master piece! 2023 🥺
Love Monica!! She's a Beast!!! Big fan!!
Shea Ware She's too underrated... In my opinion
Same
This song ate down!
Still got love for this tune 🎶 😊
Monica's vocals deliver!
This was on All American Homecoming tonight! Yasssssssss!
Growing up, Monica was the “Beyoncé” in my home!
Mine too
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯‼️
I remember when I wanted to dress like Monica… these songs never get old in my mind, heart and soul… Thank you Monica ♥️
Her, brandy Aaliyah and other young females from that era dressed classy asf.
Then music execs pushed the sex appeal acts more and more to get cheap buys
I know that I knew great music, even back then, when I was so young. This song still hits. The beat, the violen, the voice, the words, the dance and the way the entire made you feel when it came through your speakers= MASTERPIECE
this song is so under rated luvs her
still listening in 2016
hilton manik Im still here for it in 2018
"I love the cars and everything, the diamond rings but I loved you much more." This is true love! Every time I listen to this song I cry. This is my favorite and classic song by beautiful and amazing Monica.
MONICA!!!!! THIS WAS THE BEST ALBUM!!!
Legendary Music 🎶 🎉❤🎉
What an Era ❤
I always loved this song this still jammin'
Sooo mad at Monica for neglecting this song today!!
ME TOO!!!!
@C. C. but u still listened
She's a legend!
People don’t understand how superior this track is.
We're listening in November 2022 and we'll listen till the end of time
Wow! Monica looks beautiful here! Her vocals are incredible, the instruments are boss, and the production is great. I heard this Song on the CD before I saw the Video. I've been a Monica fan since 1998.
I love this women so much... her music touch's your soul.
The melody is dope! This kind of songs that tells a story are the best! This woman is real
Still Here And WE Headed Too Awhole NEW Year....#2023#LoveYouMomicaForever&Ever🔥🔥🔥💎👑🙌🏽👏🏽💯✨🌟💫🗣️💋💕💞💓💗💝💙💜🤎🖤❤️🧡💚💛👍🏽🎁🎀🏆🎖️🏅🎗️🎤🎶
I love this song by Monica huge fan ever I was 15 years old and still love her music and her
I feel Whitneys influence all over this. So iconic
Tony Alexander it’s right but it’s ok
Yes! Your love is my love era!
This video actually inspires the Whitney's video for "it's not right but it's ok". This came out before.
Probably was the same video director, even the video directors was on point back then.
Ikr
One of my favorite songs of all time. I remember buying the CD way back when and hearing this for the first time and constantly hitting that repeat button.
This song is epic asf!!! Salute to Monica. She created a masterpiece!!🔥🔥🔥
Agreee
Would have loved a duet with The late Great Ms. Whitney H. on this song.❤😊❤
Beautiful song
used to love this. she was going through it with c-murder at the time
Monica is a legend in her own right.🎶🎵🎧 . I hope she is working of new music.
I love the symphony portion of this song and when I actually listened to the lyrics I was floored. This song is still relevant in 2014 for so many women thinking they can make a man chose between them and the streets. I love this song, and Miss Monica was always before her time. #MrsBrown
She talking about C Murder Master P brother. I remember when she put this single out regarding her struggles in her relationship with C murder so I assumed she really loved him.. I meet then both years ago at a li bro house when they was dating in Decatur GA. She was super skinny at the time I thought C murder could do but I was young a dumb. Monica couldn't change his mind set. Now look where C Murder at. That charge it to the game lyrics she song at the end was a shot and hint to who the song is reference lol they was both cool 😎
Never seen this video before today. And I'm almost 40. I was that much of a brandy fan. MONICA here is your flowers. I love you
Underrated Monica song
ICONIC. Honesty, truly...love her!
Sis, you had an excellent voice since the young age and you haven't aged at all. So proud of you🤗
Happy 40th Birthday to Monica 2020!!!!
Monica laced this track Mizz Thang ATL is in mi Top 10 Female R&B Artist
Speechless. This generation will never know
I swear, the 90’s were just so special that you just had to be there!
This song is Monica’s Greatest Masterpiece in my opinion, I hate that it didn’t get the attention it deserved due to it being ahead of it’s time!
Monica is an amazing singer!! I dont think she gets as much credit as she deserves tho...it was an honor to grow up with Monica!! Always & forever my favorite singer!!
