ERIC B. & RAKIM - Rest Assured lyrics

rate me

Double oh seven is back..

Double oh seven is back..

Double oh seven is back..

[Rakim]

I don't stress my day cause it's best to parlay

I guess you could say I've been away

I wake up slow when I'm hot but I destruct the plant

and fourteen hands comb New York for fans

They make waves as they wiggle in my waterbed

Pull back the leather covers and silk bedspread

A mornin massage turnin into a real rough rubdown

so I figured I'll lay around

They keep me wet with a juice called Tahiti

It make the room steamy, so soon they couldn't see me

They know more than calisthetics as they worked up a sweat

It wasn't even ten o'clock yet

Scrub down, then I get moist, they never treat me mean

They sweetly keep me squeaky clean

I chill as they filled the jacuzzi

I said, "I'm tight from a real long flight, could you soothe me

Support my thoughts, cause I got a lot of writing to do"

They said, "Cool," and just enjoyed the view

It ain't hard cause it's miles from the sidewalk

I'm overlookin every borough in New York

The entire, Empire, State to concentrate

for every rhyme I make

So at exactly noon they played my favorite tune

And just before they all cleared the room

they said, "We're glad you're home from tour, now we feel secure

We wish you didn't have to leave no more"

But they wanna go to war, they even tried to shoot up the door

Double oh seven is back..

Rest assured

Double oh seven is back..

Feel secure

Double oh seven is back..

I'm fillin up the page when I'm steppin on stage

Got the people in a rage with they hands in the air

Fellas sayin HOE, everybody yellin GO

Fly ladies in the house all screamin "awww yeah"

That's how they react when I attack the mic

In fact it's like a stack of dynamite, powerful and bright

Girls love to squeeze me real tight

Double oh seven is back..

Ra has returned, to romance em, better than Johnny Handsome

When I was young, women said, "Damn son"

Ain't nuthin change but the year and I'm still here

C'mere dear and let me whisper in your ear

Hug my words so I can taste your lips

I set up hips like domino chips

but I don't let em hit the floor

And if you got sore, then feel secure

Where's the pain, is it the spot you set us in

Almost magic, better than medicine

Take one of these and put your mind at ease

I get more work than a lot of M.D.'s

If I'm hawkin New York, or out on tour

I express the raw dialect and explore

But don't get fooled by metaphor

Double oh seven is back

Rest assured

Feel secure

Rest assured

Rest assured

Yo, feel secure
