Rakim - Stay A While lyrics

rate me

Rakim... Clark Kent bring it on

What you wanna say to make me stay awhile

What you wanna say to make me wanna stay

[x2]

Just me and my peeps we gettin buzzed, lookin for clubs

Misses with kisses and hugs, lookin for love

She gotta be nice with hers, even with cookin some grub

Once I'm in I meet her friends, then I'm hookin my thugs

We'll be blowin hundreds, always knowin where the fun is

Roadrunners findin more spots than Columbus

Pocket full of phone numbers from some of the world wonders

I take my time, and find where the right one is

Smooth as jazz but more than a half, ready for math

And on a steady path, like Betty Shabazz

And when I see the wiz I'ma step to my biz

And there she is, let's see if she pass the quiz

It's appropriate we go get soakin wet

Toast, we met, become close associates

The place is ours by now I can embrace your style

So much flavor I can taste your smile, stay awhile

Why don't you, stay a little while

Stayyayyayyy, stay a little while, child

Baby, why don't you, stay a little while

Stayyayyyayy, ayyyayyy, stay a little while, child

Baby, why don't you

We on the low matin, infiltratin, negotiatin

We both be makin moves and dough, M.O.'s relatin

She ain't takin I want it but yo I know she waitin

I throw the bait in, and before you know we datin

I want the format, to the doormat

Contacts fast, callbacks and all that

Your deepest ecstasy see you wear accesory

Your secret recipes to your bear necessities

She real exotic body feel like Lucile Roberts

Name brand closets, culturized products

Claws like a scorpion caught me in deeper

But juice sweeter, enough to buy a two seater

Every mile I plan to have your mind beguiled

Til it informs me more than you would normally allow

Raised more than an eyebrow with a flagrant style

By now I can taste your smile, stay awhile

[Chorus]

Sometimes it's hard to fight it and not let her see me get excited

But she know I like it, she know the deal like a psychic

Mind is haunted, because I always find her on it

She know what I want, where I want, when I want it

Blowin up my Motorola, daddy you comin over?

She on the sofa, holdin a remote controller

Candles burnin lower, favorite dish gettin colder

She hot as solar, cause I told her I wanna hold her

But her mission she sittin in one position like Yoda

A TV show is on to top it off she dead sober

Then I open the door up, and kiss her on the shoulder

She say I'm rollin, like Mr. Lover Lover

We had a hard day, ready to parlay

My thirsts they obey everything that God say

Okay let's play awhile and I'll embrace your style

So much flavor I can taste your smile, stay awhile

[Chorus: w/ variations to end]
