Roots - The 'notic lyrics
rate meThis 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, Alana's whole attraction<br />
Just fractionally based on surface, 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 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 '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<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 />
Chorus: repeat 2X<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 />
<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, staircase is somethin realistic<br />
Damn, her lips having me addicted to her presence<br />
Front page material on essence, a queen, imperial before her <br />
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 />
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 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 />
Chorus 4X<br />
<br />
You're my shinin star<br />
No matter where you are<br />
Don't know what to say<br />
Was it true to be
