Roots - The Hypnotic (Remix) lyrics

rate me

Yo . . .<br />

<br />

This beautiful blend,<br />

I knew her through a mutual friend,<br />

She was a work of art, part of my heart from back then,<br />

A brown skin singer witha knack, for actin',<br />

Alana's soul attraction,<br />

Just fractionally based on surface,<br />

I got into her mental on purpose,<br />

And with alertness as I flirt with her emotion,<br />

Walls we built up out of nervousness was broken,<br />

I reminisce on how this Black Thought had her open<br />

With the energy that got the whole summertime smokin',<br />

Very hypnotized,<br />

When it was time we spent time,<br />

It's no way to rewind or prevent time from slippin' away like day,<br />

Into the dark and the way that things fall apart,<br />

Will make some start to feel more,<br />

Weak or insecure,<br />

But for whatever reason our relationship remained mature,<br />

Even when she caught feelin's ''cause I stay on tour,<br />

As I reflect on before and recap, the situation,<br />

I guess, from experience, comes education,<br />

We set on a path to opposite destinations it's best,<br />

To chalk it up and add it to the elevation than eventually <br />

Flow off, to lost communication,<br />

I called,<br />

But lost all information,<br />

And with time forgot it,<br />

It's not like I'm all in tears about it,<br />

But the fact of the matter remains that I miss the Hypnotic<br />

<br />

You're my shinin' star,<br />

No matter where you are,<br />

For the world to see,<br />

What you truly be,<br />

You're my shinin' star,<br />

No matter where you are,<br />

For the world to see,<br />

What you truly be,<br />

What you truly be<br />

<br />

Yo, she was the Hypnotic,<br />

And potent as a narcotic,<br />

The bizarre logic of it all,<br />

Is why the clock tick, pages of the calendar flip,<br />

We can't stop it,<br />

Time will either tell the tale or turn a love toxic,<br />

Now was she real,<br />

Or an illusion of this optical confusion with <br />

The accent of Ancient Egypt,<br />

Or could it be that she's the one I was supposed to be with <br />

And together walk this twisted, staircase to something realistic,<br />

Damn, her lips havin' me addicted to her presence,<br />

Front page material on Essence, a queen,<br />

Imperial before her adolescence,<br />

Amd as she grew into a woman she became refined,<br />

I never knew another like her in my lifetime,<br />

So now I travel through a tunnel of space, <br />

Without a place, on the face of this earth,<br />

With this pain gettin' worse,<br />

Drivin' me insane or atleast I'm touchin' the brink,<br />

Of sanity to think of how I can link, or contact her,<br />

I was a fool before but more wise after the fact,<br />

I'm analyzin' how I'm wantin' her back,<br />

And wonderin' exactly where she could be on the map,<br />

I'm just sittin' here spinnin' the world on one finger,<br />

Reoccuring thoughts of this brown skin singer,<br />

Yo, the psychotic, the hypnotic,<br />

Yo check it out, the most melodic Hypnotic<br />

<br />

(4x)<br />

You're my shinin' star,<br />

No matter where you are,<br />

For the world to see,<br />

What you truly be,
