<br />
<br />
Acid-wash Guess with the leather patches<br />
<br />
Sportin` the white Diadoras with the hoodie that matches<br />
<br />
I`m wearing two Swatches and a small Gucci pouch<br />
<br />
I could have worn the Lugi but I left it in the house<br />
<br />
Now, my niggas Duce and Wayne got gold plates with their names<br />
<br />
With the skyline on it with the box link chain<br />
<br />
I`m wearing my frames<br />
<br />
They match my gear with their tint<br />
<br />
And you know Lagerfields is the scent<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Now, my nigga Rafael just got his jeep out the shop<br />
<br />
Mint green sidekick, custom-made rag top<br />
<br />
"Strictly Business" is the album that we play<br />
<br />
"You`re A Customer"; the pick of the day<br />
<br />
Now there`s a nigga on the block, never seen him before<br />
<br />
Selling incence and oil, my man thinks that he`s the law<br />
<br />
But why on earth would this be on their agenda?<br />
<br />
As he slowly approaches the window..<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
"Uh, uh, I`ve seen you before, I`ve been you and more<br />
<br />
I was the one bearing the pitcher of water<br />
<br />
I rent the large upper room<br />
<br />
Furnished with tidings of your doom<br />
<br />
Or pleasure, whichever feathers[?] decree."<br />
<br />
Yo Ralph is he talking to me?<br />
<br />
"No I`m talking to the sea son`s resurrected<br />
<br />
I`m the solstice of the day<br />
<br />
I bring news from the blues of the Caspian"<br />
<br />
My man laughs, he`s one them crazy motherfuckers<br />
<br />
Turn the music back up - `cause I`m the E-Double`<br />
<br />
"Wait, but but but but I know the volume of the sea<br />
<br />
And sound waves as I will<br />
<br />
Will you allow me to be at your service?"<br />
<br />
My man Ralph is nervous. He believes<br />
<br />
That this strange tounge deceives<br />
<br />
And maybe he`s been informed that<br />
<br />
He`s pushing gats hidden in the back, beneath the floor mats<br />
<br />
Come on Jack, we don`t have time<br />
<br />
For your bullshit or playin<br />
<br />
A`salaam a something` or another<br />
<br />
"Wait isn`t Juanita your mother?<br />
<br />
I told you I know you, now grant me a moment"<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
At the gates of Atlantis we stand<br />
<br />
Ours is the blood that flowed from the palms of his hands<br />
<br />
on the plow till earth<br />
<br />
till I`m now<br />
<br />
Moon cycles revisited, womb fruit of the sun<br />
<br />
Full moon of occasions wave the wolves where they run<br />
<br />
And they run towards the light casting love on the winds<br />
<br />
As is the science of the aroma of sleeping women<br />
<br />
Lost in his eyes they soon reflect my friend`s are grinning<br />
<br />
But I`m a pupil of his sight<br />
<br />
The wheels are spinning<br />
<br />
Yo I`ll see ya`ll later on tonight<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
In the beginning her tears where the long awaited rains<br />
<br />
Of a parched Somali village<br />
<br />
Red dusted children danced shadows<br />
<br />
In the newfound mound of mascara that eclipsed her face<br />
<br />
Reflected in the smogged glass of carlos east street bodega<br />
<br />
Learning to love, she had forgotten to cry<br />
<br />
Seldom hearing the distant thunder in her lovers ambivalent sighs<br />
<br />
He was not honest<br />
<br />
She was not sure<br />
<br />
A great grandmother<br />
<br />
Had sacrificed the family`s clarity for God in the late 1800`s<br />
<br />
Nonetheless she had allowed him to mispronounce her name<br />
<br />
Which had eventually led to her misinterpreating her own dreams<br />
<br />
And later doubting them<br />
<br />
But<br />
<br />
The night was young<br />
<br />
She the firstborn daughter of water faced darkness and smiled<br />
<br />
Took mystery as her lover<br />
<br />
And raised light as her child<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Man that shit was wild you should have seen how they ran<br />
<br />
She woke up in an alley with a gun in her hand<br />
<br />
Tupac in lotus form<br />
<br />
Ennis`[?] blood on his hands<br />
<br />
She woke up on a vessel<br />
<br />
The land behind her<br />
<br />
The sun within her<br />
<br />
Water beneath her<br />
<br />
Mushed corn for dinner<br />
<br />
Or was it breakfast<br />
<br />
Her stomach turned as if a compass<br />
<br />
She prayed towards east and lay there breathless<br />
<br />
They threw her overboard for dead<br />
<br />
She swam silently and fled<br />
<br />
Into the blue sea<br />
<br />
La soh fa mi, re do, si<br />
<br />
The seventh octave<br />
<br />
I don`t mean to confuse you<br />
<br />
Many of us have been taught to sing<br />
<br />
And so we practice scales<br />
<br />
Many of us were born singing<br />
<br />
And thus were born with scales<br />
<br />
Mermaids, cooks, and fieldhands<br />
<br />
Sang a nightsong by the forest<br />
<br />
And the ocean was the chorus<br />
<br />
In Atlantis where they sang<br />
<br />
Those thrown overboard had overheard<br />
<br />
The mystery of the undertow<br />
<br />
And understood that down below<br />
<br />
There would be no more chains<br />
<br />
They surrendered breath and name<br />
<br />
And survived countless as rain<br />
<br />
I`m the weather man<br />
<br />
The clouds say storm is coming<br />
<br />
A white buffalo was born<br />
<br />
Already running<br />
<br />
And if you listen very close<br />
<br />
You`ll hear a humming<br />
<br />
Beneath the surface of our purpose lies<br />
<br />
Rumors of ancient man<br />
<br />
Dressed in cloud face minstrels in the sky<br />
<br />
The moon`s my mammy<br />
<br />
The storm holds my eye<br />
<br />
Dressed in westerlies [?]<br />
<br />
Robed by robes ol` man river knows my name<br />
<br />
And the reason you were born<br />
<br />
Is the reason<br />
<br />
That I came<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Then she looks me in the face<br />
<br />
And her eyes get weak<br />
<br />
Pulse rate descends, hearts rate increase<br />
<br />
Emcees look me in the face and their eyes get weak<br />
<br />
Pulse rates descends hearts rate increase<br />
<br />
It`s like "beam me up, Scottie", I control your body<br />
<br />
I`m as deadly as AIDS when it`s time to rock a party<br />
<br />
We all rocked fades, fresh faded in ladidadi - and when we rock the mic<br />
<br />
Ignore the feminine side - we rock the mic<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I presented my feminine side with flowers<br />
<br />
She cut the stems and placed them gently down my throat<br />
<br />
And these two lips might soon eclipse your brightest hopes<br><br><a href='http://www.lyricsbay.com' target='_blank'>LyricsBay</a> | <a href="http://www.lyricsbay.com/1987_lyrics-saul_williams.html" target='_blank'>1987 lyrics SAUL WILLIAMS</a></pre>

Acid-wash Guess with the leather patches

Sportin` the white Diadoras with the hoodie that matches

I`m wearing two Swatches and a small Gucci pouch

I could have worn the Lugi but I left it in the house

With the skyline on it with the box link chain

And you know Lagerfields is the scent

Mint green sidekick, custom-made rag top
