Ericka is an unreleased debut album by R&B singer Ericka Yancey. The album was led by two singles, "So Good" and "Wait a While", both of which failed to obtain top 40 success on the US R&B charts and failed to make an entry on the Billboard Hot 100. Because of the failure of both singles, the album was ultimately shelved; promotional copies of the album however were released exclusively to Amazon in 1999, before being discontinued in 2000.

Aooo-ooooh
Aooo-ooooh
Thought I headed straight
Thought I had it waiting for me
Thought it was my fate
I was only waiting for the sky to fall down
The sword of Damocles
Or at least I thought it was
Had me on my knees
That's when I saw it had the shape of a cross
Aooo-ooooh
I'm ready to give it up (up up up up up up..)
Aooo-ooooh
I heard the call, but I won't follow
'Cause now I'm breaking up with God
I've had it with shame, I've had it with sorrow
Now I'm breaking up with God
And the devil too
Now I wanna dance the night away
Aoooo
Reach my heaven alive
A world that's black and white
Has evil haunting every corner
Demons in the night
And no love, no love for the one who ain't right
Aooo-ooooh
I heard the call, but I won't follow
'Cause now I'm breaking up with God
I've had it with shame, I've had it with sorrow
Now I'm breaking up with God
And the Devil too
Now I wanna dance the night away
Aoooo
Reach my heaven alive
Aaaah aaah aaah
Aaaah aaah aaah
(We'll lead you home...)
Aooo-ooooh
I heard the call, but I won't follow
'Cause now I'm breaking up with God
I've had it with shame, I've had it with sorrow
Now I'm breaking up with God
I heard their call, but I won't follow
'Cause now I'm breaking up with God
I've had it with shame, I've had it with sorrow
Now I'm breaking up with God
And the Devil too
Now I wanna dance the night away
Aoooo
Reach my heaven alive
Aoooo
Now I wanna touch you right away
Aoooo, oooh
Find my own heaven alive
Aooo-ooooh
