    Lyrics -
    [Intro: Timbaland]
    Dirty South, can y'all really feel me?
    East Coast, feel me, West Coast, feel me
    Dirty South, can y'all really feel me?
    East Coast, feel me, West Coast, feel me
    Dirty South, can y'all really feel me?
    East Coast, feel me, West Coast, feel me
    Dirty South, can y'all really feel me?
    East Coast, feel me, West Coast, feel me
    [Verse 1: Aaliyah]
    Boy, I've been watching you like the hawk in the sky
    That flies, but you were my prey (My prey)
    Boy, I promise you if we keep bumpin' heads
    I know that one of these days (Days)
    We gon' hook it up, prolly talk on the phone
    But see, I don't know if that's good
    I've been holdin' back this secret from you
    I probably shouldn't tell it
    [Chorus: Aaliyah]
    But if I, If I let you know
    You can't tell nobody, I'm talkin' 'bout nobody
    Are you responsible?
    Boy, I gotta watch my back, 'cause I'm not just anybody
    Is it my go, is it your go?
    Sometimes I'm goody-goody
    Right now I'm naughty-naughty
    Say yes or say no, 'cause I really need somebody
    Tell me are you that somebody?
    [Verse 2: Aaliyah]
    Boy, won't you pick me up at the park right now
    Up the block, while everyone sleep, sleep, sleep
    I'll be waiting there with my trench, my locs, my hat
    Just so I'm lowkey, If you tell the world
    (Don't speak, you know that would be weak)
    Oh boy, see I'm trusting you with my heart, my soul
    I probably shouldn't let you
    [Chorus: Aaliyah]
    But if I, If I let this go
    You can't tell nobody, I'm talkin' 'bout nobody
    I hope you're responsible
    Boy, I gotta watch my back, 'cause I'm not just anybody
    Is it my go, is it your go?
    Sometimes I'm goody-goody
    Right now I'm naughty-naughty
    Say yes or say no, 'cause I really need somebody
    Tell me are you that somebody
    [Verse 3: Timbaland & Aaliyah]
    Baby girl, I'm the man from the big VA
    Won't you come play round my way
    And listen to what I gotta say
    Timbaland (What) don't you know I am the man
    Rock shows here to Japan
    Have people shaking, shaking my hand
    Baby girl, better known as Aaliyah
    Give me goosebumps and high fevers
    Makin' playa haters believers
    Don'tcha know, gotta tell somebody, cause
    'Cause I really need somebody (What?)
    Tell me you're that somebody (What?)
    [Chorus: Aaliyah]
    If I let this go
    You can't tell nobody, I'm talkin' 'bout nobody
    Are you responsible?
    Boy I gotta watch my back, 'cause I'm not just anybody
    Is it my go, is it your go?
    Sometimes I'm goody-goody
    Right now I'm naughty-naughty
    Say yes or say no, 'cause I really need somebody
    Tell me are you that somebody?
    [Chorus: Aaliyah]
    You can't tell nobody, I'm talkin' 'bout nobody
    I hope you're responsible
    Boy, I gotta watch my back, 'cause I'm not just anybody
    Is it my go, is it your go?
    Sometimes I'm goody-goody
    Right now I'm naughty-naughty
    Say yes or say no, 'cause I really need somebody
    Tell me are you that somebody?
    [Chorus: Aaliyah]
    Is it my go, is it your go?
    Sometimes I'm goody-goody
    Right now I'm bout naughty naughty
    'Cause I really need somebody
    Tell me are you that somebody?

      It's okay, she changed the world and that's all any of us can hope for.
      One day we will be able to travel the dimensional Rifts though and go wherever she lives on. That's gonna be a good day.
      Until then, we have AI that can clone her voice(Eleven Labs) and make new tracks inspired by our love for her(GPT).
      What a time to be alive.

      Pilot Debrief goes over the flight in which she was killed. -Aaliya knew this was a no go and went to sit in the cab which had brought them to the airstrip. Aaliyah was drugged and brought aboard that small plane which was not operated by a competent pilot, and was significantly over weight limit for safe operation. Tragic.
