THE ROOTS

THE ROOTS - The 'Notic lyrics

(feat. D'Angelo)

This beautiful blend, I knew her through a mutual friend

She was a work of art, a part of my heart from back then

A brown skin singer, with a knack for actin, Alana's whole attraction

Just fractionally based on surface, I got into her mental on purpose

And with alertness, as I flirt with her emotion

Walls we built up out of nervousness was broken

I reminisce on how this Black Thought had her open

Wit da energy that got the whole summertime smokin very hypnotized

When it was time we spent time

It's no way to rewind or prevent

time from slipping away like day, into the dark

and the way that things fall apart, will make some start

to feel more, weak or insecure

But for whatever reason our relationship remain mature

Even when she caught feelings cuz I stay on tour

As I reflect on before, and recap the situation

I guess from experience, comes education

We set on a path to opposite destinations

It's best to chalk it up and add it to the elevation

Then eventually flow on to lost communication

I called but lost all information

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

But the fact still remains that I miss the Hypnotic

[Chorus: x2]

You're a shinin' star

No matter where you are

For the world to see

What you truly be

She was the hypnotic, and potent as a narcotic

the bizarre logic of it all, is why the clock tick

pages of the calendar flip, we can't stop it

time will either tell the tale, or turn a love toxic

now was she real, or an illusion of this optical

confusion with the accent of ancient Egypt

or could it be that she's the one I was supposed to be with

and together walked this twisted, staircase is somethin realistic

damn, her lips having me addicted to her presence

front page material on essence, a queen, imperial before her

adolescence

and as she grew into a woman she became refine

I never knew another like her in my lifetime

so now I travel through a tunnel of space, without a place

on the face of this earth, with this pain gettin worse

drivin me insane, or release I'm touchin the brink, of sanity

to think of how I can link, or contact her

I was a fool before, but more wise after the fact

I'm analyzin how I'm wantin her back

and wonderin exactly where she could be on the map

I'm just sittin here spinning the world on one finger

reoccuring thoughts of this brown skin singer

yo, the psychotic, the hypnotic, yo check it out

the most melodic hypnotic, yeah

[Chorus x4]

You're my shinin star

No matter where you are

Dont know what to say

Was it true to be
