Me and eric be was coolin' at the paladium[00:00:11]
Seen a all world covered girl I said hey lady I'm[00:00:14]
Sorry if you're in a rush don't let me hold ya up[00:00:17]
Or interveen or interrupt but[00:00:20]
You got the look I want to get to know ya better[00:00:23]
I had to let her know but yo I didn't sweat her[00:00:26]
'Cause if you woulda seen what I was seein'[00:00:29]
Almost looked korean but european[00:00:31]
When she spoke her accent was self explanatory[00:00:34]
Even her body language told the story[00:00:37]
Her name was mahogony twin's name was ebony[00:00:40]
I said my name is ra and this is eric be[00:00:43]
Since the music was loud I said let's take a walk[00:00:46]
So we could talk and see new york[00:00:49]
Show time doesn't start until one o'clock[00:00:51]
And once I entered your mind I wouldn't want to stop[00:00:54]
Caressin' ya thoughts 'till we was thinkin' the same[00:00:57]
Calm ya nerves massage ya brain[00:01:00]
Each mic is a mineral poetry's protein[00:01:03]
Verse is a vitamin affects like codine[00:01:06]
So tell me how you feel and I'll reveal[00:01:08]
A pill that'll heal ya pain 'cause I'm real[00:01:11]
She musta od'd 'cause she couldn't resist[00:01:14]
She spoke slowly when she told me this she said[00:01:17]
Over me she's goin' crazy[00:01:20]
She'll rub me on my chest and call me Mr sexy[00:01:23]
She said she'd have my kids[00:01:26]
And help me make my next g[00:01:27]
Tell me I ain't finesse mahogony[00:01:29]
So I prescribed her something to revive[00:01:31]
And surprise her she's liver and much more wiser[00:01:34]
Than the light I shine when my brain cells spark[00:01:37]
Come to me so we can glow in the dark[00:01:40]
And soon you can represent the moon[00:01:43]
As long as I keep ya in tune[00:01:46]
I'll tell ya who ya are and why ya here[00:01:49]
Take it in stride 'cause it might take a year[00:01:52]
It's funny how time flies when ya havin' fun[00:01:55]
We got close and it was almost one[00:01:58]
She kissed me slow[00:02:00]
But you know how far a kiss can go[00:02:01]
F**k around and miss the show[00:02:04]
So I told her to hold that thought real tight[00:02:06]
We can finish where we left off later on tonite[00:02:09]
Back to the scene of the crime on time[00:02:12]
As they introduced the fiend of the rhyme[00:02:15]
She stood with a crowd what a birds eye view of me[00:02:18]
Thinkin' of later on of what she would do to me[00:02:21]
The back of the room I could see her eyes gloom[00:02:23]
Patient but hopin' that the show was over soon[00:02:26]
As the place was ripped in half[00:02:29]
She made her way to the front row[00:02:31]
So I said let's go[00:02:33]
I packed my mic as they screamed for an encore[00:02:35]
The speakers were blown plus my mic was sore[00:02:38]
Besides I got places to go ladies to see[00:02:41]
And she could tell me how crazy she was over me[00:02:44]
We drove off she said[00:02:47]
She liked the way that I performed[00:02:48]
And couldn't wait to get 'soft and warm' I said[00:02:50]
I've been watchin' you watchin' me[00:02:52]
Looks I received made it hard to mc[00:02:55]
I can take a hint so I knew that she[00:02:58]
Wanted my agony agony agony[00:03:00]
In her body[00:03:03]
Showed her some sights[00:03:04]
Then I took her to the condo[00:03:05]
She was pipin' hot but I kept my calm so[00:03:07]
She asked how come I don't smile[00:03:09]
I said everything's fine[00:03:11]
But I'm in a new york state of mind[00:03:13]
As we reached the kingdom she said bring some[00:03:15]
Champagne she'll entertain then sing some[00:03:18]
Sentimental songs real gentle[00:03:21]
It hit the spot and you know where it went to[00:03:24]
As we embraced I felt her heart pumpin'[00:03:27]
I knew she was in the mood for somethin'[00:03:30]
So I laid on my back and relaxed[00:03:33]
It wasn't the perignon that made her collaspe[00:03:35]
Over me[00:03:38]
She's goin' crazy[00:03:39]
She'll rub me on my chest and call me Mr sexy[00:03:41]
She said she'd have my kids[00:03:44]
And help me make my next g[00:03:45]
Tell me I ain't finesse mahogony[00:03:47]
