Roots - The 'Notic (feat. D'Angelo) lyrics

rate me

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

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

A brown skin singer, with a knack for actin<br />

Alana's whole 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 />

Wit da 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<br />

Time from slipping away like day, into the dark<br />

And the way that things fall apart, will make some start<br />

To feel more, weak or insecure<br />

But for whatever reason our relationship remain mature<br />

Even when she caught feelings cuz 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<br />

It's best to chalk it up and add it to the elevation<br />

Then eventually flow on to lost communication<br />

I called but lost all information<br />

And with time forgot it, it's not like I'm all in tears about it<br />

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

<br />

You're a shinin' star<br />

No matter where you are<br />

For the world to see<br />

What you truly be<br />

You're a shinin' star<br />

No matter where you are<br />

For the world to see<br />

What you truly be<br />

She was the hypnotic, and potent as a narcotic<br />

The bizarre logic of it all, is why the clock tick<br />

Pages of the calendar flip, we can't stop it<br />

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

Now was she real, or an illusion of this optical<br />

Confusion with the accent of ancient Egypt<br />

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

And together walked this twisted<br />

Staircase is somethin realistic<br />

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

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

Imperial before her adolescence<br />

And as she grew into a woman she became refine<br />

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

So now I travel through a tunnel of space, without a place<br />

On the face of this earth, with this pain gettin worse<br />

Drivin me insane, or release I'm touchin the brink, of sanity<br />

Tto 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 spinning the world on one finger<br />

Reoccuring thoughts of this brown skin singer<br />

Yo, the psychotic, the hypnotic, yo check it out<br />

The most melodic hypnotic, yeah<br />

<br />

You're a 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 />

Dont know what to say<br />

Was it true to be
