Blackalicious lyrics : "Powers"

[Verse One]
Met her out of town
In a small cafÈ

She had the motion of the ocean
How her hips did sway
She had everybody lookin'back

And everybody tookin' back
And anything she wanted all the guys
Obeyed

Now she was a site for sore pupils
And she likes to flaunt it cause she knows she got it
And she does the most intoxicating things

To make a man with worries
Feel everything is okay


[CHORUS]
She's got powers
And I think I want to get in her spell

Powers
Every bone inside me of all my cells


[Verse Two]
She holds you down but when you need a push
She keeps it honest

She reflects
Then she'll force you to look
You dig everything about her

From her head down to her follicles
There's a heaven in her smile
She'll steal your heart like a crook

Now she knows
Exactly what you want and when
And she goes

To any measures just to see you get it
And she flows
Like the now

I think that she was Nephertiti in a life
Before this present life was took
She got powers


[CHORUS]


[BRIDGE]
P-O-W-E-R-S
Fizz and bubble when I see her yes

Want to see just how deep her abyss gets
Lost in the magic of her secret bliss
She is a bonafide keeper just

Want to travel inside and seek her depths
Mystique so fresh
From the west coast to the east coast

It's a death blow make a Negro get
Spun up in her web she don't need no net
People low and behold

She knows just
What I need make an ego
What I need make an ego

Fly like an eagle
Feelin' regal, o b-o-y
O she's so fly

Lethal injection
Frozen in my step like deep in breath
Keepin'a brethren like me in a head spin

Doc take a rain check
She is the medicine


[Verse Three]
She got some tricks and she got some treats
She'll shake the ground underneath you

Knock you off your feet
She got everything you dream about
Everything you think about

Hear melodies and sounds of music
When she speaks
She stays persistent with her energy

And she plays
Those games when its time to play 'em
And she ages
Like the finest kind of wine
And just a whiff of her ferment

Will make your knees get weak
