My name is Marques...Barrett...Houston

My mommy's name is Carrolyn 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

And sometimes my grandmother Bebe comes over and she going to put me in a movie and we going to be rich

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 ya'll "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"
