Gonna Breakthrough Lyrics

[Intro: Mary J]
Hey, yeah, ooh
La, la, la, oh
Come on

[Verse 1: Mary J]
If you've been stressin', you've been hurtin'
(It's gon' be alright)
I know times get so hard that you could cry
(But not tonight)
I know just what you came for
Get up, up on the dance floor
Or wherever you are
While the DJ's breaking it down

[Chorus: Mary J]
Ain't no telling what we're gon' do (Uh-huh)
But I'm gonna break through (Yeah) and take you (Yeah)
And take you where it feels so good
Ain't no telling what we're gon' do (Ain't no)
But I'm gonna break through and take you (You, you)
And take you where it feels so good

[Verse 2: Mary J]
All I wanna do (Oh yeah)
Is get in touch with you (Ooh)
To be real (Real), how you feel (Feel)
Everybody goes through things sometimes

So let your mind just be free (Free)
Anything you wanna be, be
But whatever you do
Let this music get to you (Get to you)
[Chorus: Mary J]
Ain't no telling what we're gon' do
(Ain't no telling what we're gonna do)
But I'm gonna break through (Yeah) and take you
And take you where it feels so good
Ain't no telling what we're gon' do (Ain't no)
But I'm gonna break through (Break through) and take you (Take you)
And take you where it feels so good

[Bridge: Mary J]
We gon' tear it up all night (We gon' tear it up)
Dance until the morning light (Morning light)
It's something that's gon' soothe your mind
(It's gonna soothe your mind and make you feel so good)
Baby, let your body be (Let your body be)
Anything you wanna be (Anything)
Just let go and you will see

[Verse 3: Brook Lynn]
Check it out
It's time to break through
MJ gon' take you there
Get your hands in the air and get you a three step
Lil' something for the clubs and it feels so hood
Got the whole world sayin', "How she still so good?"
It's a gift, God-given, I'm a ribbon in the sky
So fly, I'ma ride like the queen I am
Pay homage, mic check, one, two, one, two
Pop bottles, get it crunk, that's what we came to do
Get your back off the wall 'cause united we stand
Together we ball, everybody up on the floor
Like dun dun na (Come on)
Dun dun na (Come on)
Dun dun na (Come on)
Get your ass on the floor, let's go
[Chorus: Mary J]
Ain't no telling what we're gon' do
But I'm gonna break through (Break through) and take you (Take you)
And take you where it feels so good
Ain't no telling what we're gon' do (Ain't no tellin')
But I'm gonna break through (Break through) and take you (Take you, take you, take you)
And take you where it feels so good
Ain't no telling what we're gon' do
But I'm gonna break through and take you
And take you where it feels so good
Ain't no telling what we're gon' do
But I'm gonna break through (Break through) and take you (Take you)
And take you where it feels so good

[Outro: Mary J]
Gonna break through, gonna break through
Gonna break through (Break through)
Gonna break through, gonna break through
Gonna break through
Gonna break through, gonna break through
Gonna break through
Gonna break through, gonna break through
Gonna break through
Gonna break through, gonna break through
Gonna break through

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
