Mahogany - Eric B. & Rakim

Verse One: 

Me and Eric B was coolin' at the Paladium 
Seen a all world covered girl  I said "Hey lady I'm 
Sorry if You're in a rush   Don't let me hold ya up 
Or interveen or interrupt  but. . . 
You got the look   I wanna get to know ya better 
I had to let her know   but yo  I didn't sweat her 
'Cause if you woulda seen what I was seein' 
Almost looked Korean  but European. 
When she spoke  her accent was self-explanatory - 
Even her body language told the story 
Her name was Mahogony - twin's name was Ebony 
I said "My name is Ra - and this is Eric B" 
Since the music was loud, I said "let's take a walk, 
So we could talk and see New York. 
Show time doesn't start until one o'clock 
And once I entered your mind I wouldn't wanna stop 
Caressin' ya thoughts till we was thinkin' the same 
Calm ya nerves, massage ya brain 
Each mic is a mineral, poetry's protein 
Verse is a vitamin - Affects like Codine 
So tell me how you feel and I'll reveal 
A pill that'll heal ya pain - 'cause I'm real 
She musta OD'd 'cause she couldn't resist 
She spoke slowly when she told me this, she said 

Chorus: 

Over Me, She's goin' crazy 
She'll rub me on my chest and call me Mr. Sexy 
She said she'd have my kids and help me make my next G 
Tell me I ain't finesse Mahogony . . . 


Verse Two: 

So I prescribed her, something to revive 
And surprise her, she's liver and much more wiser 
Than the light I shine when my brain cells spark, 
Come to me so we can glow in the dark 
And soon, you can represent the moon 
As long as I keep ya in tune
