Lyrics Marques Houston – Veteran (Intro)

My name is Marques…Barrett…Houston.
My mommy’s name is Carolyn and my daddy’s name is Michael.
And my brother’s name is Brandon and my sister is Danyelle.
I like Michael Jackson and Eddie Murphy.

Even when I was 2 I knew I’d be something.
I thank God because without him none of this would be.
When I was 8 I was on my «Worst Behavior.»
By the time I was 12 «Playtime Was Over.»
When I was 14 I told the world «We Got It.»
And at 16 I took you on my «Journey.»
At 18 I introduced you to «IMX.»
And at 20 IMX came to an end.
But then again every end has a new beginning.
At 21 that beginning gave birth to «MH.»
At 23 MH got «Naked.»

After millions of albums sold, hundreds of magazine covers,
3 years in a row making you all «Scream», 7 seasons of television,
and the number 1 movie that made the whole world wanna dance.

From the beginning to now,
I survived the rumors, the negativity, the drama, the break ups, the make ups,
the confusion between me and people about me saying shit on the radio I never said.
I inspired the new generation of music.

So, now at 25 I think it is safe to say: That I Marques Houston am a «Veteran.»
