TRANSITIONS Lyrics & Credits

Message from Keith: “This is my Labor of love. It is my joy, my pain, my triumphs, my mistakes and failures. In the same breath, it is my strength and weakness. A look at Keith WildChild Middleton. This would have never come to pass had it not been for my car wreck on Jan 15th 2008. 

Carpe Diem, we’re not promised tomorrow. I am thankful for my second chance in life and grateful to those that Love and support me and each other.”

3. That Kiss ft. Latoya Kennedy – by Keith Middleton & Latoya Kennedy

Comments: “This is actually part two to Brasilian Skies. In a way, it sums up their love in a Kiss. That Kiss. It is so dynamic. That Kiss is Epic.” – Keith

Lyrics:

When I’m with you, I feel so amazing 
Your love’s unreal, takes me, to another place 
Don’t stop, come on, so strong, I get so exited 
Mere words just can’t explain what’s in my heart

Querida 

the fact is looking at this front or backwards, inside or outside, however it’s accessed, it all boils down to 2 words..That Kiss 

It combines us, it defines us, it reminds us, it aligns us, it actually astrologically zodiac signs us.  

(‘…and I love the way you kiss me…’) 

Placing out legendary love amongst celestial neighbors, west of Orion’s Belt, South of Ursur Major where they’ll find us, indulging in what started it all, that kiss.. 

Epic at best, skeptics can a test to all stories told as they unfold whilst gazing up at our love twinkling there in the bed of night centuries old.. 

(‘kissing you, kissing you, kiss me’) 

Brazen and bold, emblazoned in gold, that kiss 

Generating invigorating radiance, that kiss, 

Stimulating yet demonstrating patience, thats that kiss 

Its so specific, so complex yet simplistic in any context 

We are blessed that kiss is us and we are so gifted, 

Chorus: 

Your Kiss is all I need, (You give good lovin) 

Just Like the air I breathe, (Keep it comin) 

I need you next to me (let me tell you something) 

You’re all I need… 

When I’m with you I feel, So Amazing 

So much history in the myth of that kiss 

So many mysteries n that misty joyous abyss of that kiss 

We laugh in that kiss we cry in that kiss

(and I love the way you kiss me) 

we live and we die by that kiss 

we oooo in that kiss, we make love in that kiss 

we talk for hours and hours 

get lost and devoured in that kiss 

get found in that kiss 

feel joy in heaps in mounds, always making new leaps and bounds with that kiss 

feel sadness without that kiss 

real madness is that kiss 

we make up with that kiss, we dream to wake up to that kiss 

we romance with that kiss, our souls dance with that kiss, we hold hands with that kiss, 

you make me feel like a man with that kiss 

(kissing you, kissing you, kiss me) 

we both understand that kiss is so unique, we need not speak of that kiss, 

you give me strength with that kiss, you make me weak with that kiss  

Chorus: 

Your Kiss is all I need, (You give good lovin) 

It’s Like the air I breathe, (Keep it comin) 

you are my destiny (let me tell you something) 

 You’re all I need…kiss me baby, kiss me baby 

 Right Here (Here) There’s a space for you 

 Right here (Here) Made a place for you 

 and don’t you worry ’bout a thing I got you baby 

 (don’t u worry bout a thing, ) 

 I got you

4. Brazilian Skies ft. Camille Armstrong, Nabiyah Bashir – by Keith WildChild Middleton

Comments: “This song tells the tale of two that fall in love in Brazil under it’s beautiful sky. Despite the fact that he only speaks English and she, only Portuguese. Love is a Universal Language and always wins.” – Keith

Lyrics:

“From across the dance floor I advanced towards this, for damn sure gorgeous 
Indigenous Flawless Female 
She, encapsulated beauty in such a way it captivated all that danced and 
encompassed her abundant circumference admiring her every detail 

it’s as if, God had given her those hips for samba rhythms and those lips got me 
driven to the point where, the language barrier was not an obstacle 

(vo ci falla portuguese) 

we can make that possible and the smile up on her face said she loved challenges, 
and I’ve never backed down from anything despite disadvantages.. 

Chorus.. 

It is not clear what you’re saying to me, nor is it clear what I’m saying to you, 
but what is clear is love, under Brazilian skies.. 
‘though we’re from different parts of the world, you’re still a boy and I’m still a girl 
both speak the language of love, under Brazilian skies.. 

The night continued on with dizzy dancing, kissing romancing, smiles and laughter 
caught up in love’s rhythmic rapture, cured up with this new found chapter.. 

laying on the beach hand in hand, toes digging in Brazilian sand 
gazing up into God’s beautiful black blanket up so high, feeling so high
counting clusters of sparkling stars, wondering how we fit in the master plan and y, 
waving to Venus as she waves back blowing us both kisses with joyful tears in her eyes… 

for the 2 souls finally finding that fundamental language here.. No lind ceo Brasilero (yes, under Brazilian Skies) 

Chorus.. 

It is not clear what you’re saying to me, nor is it clear what I’m saying to you, 
but what is clear is love, under Brazilian skies.. 

‘though we’re from different parts of the world, you’re still a boy and I’m still a girl 
both speak the language of love, under Brazilian skies.. 

there’s no space or time 
(there’s no space or time) 

there’s no space or time 
(there’s no space or time) 

there’s no space or time 
when your hands in mine 
there’s just u and I  
Under Brazilian skies”

6. FeelsGood ft. Double R – by Keith WildChild Middleton (WATCH VIDEO)

Comments: “People may me know me from STOMP and or the underground hip hop scene in NYC with my rap group HYDRA and The PLAGUE
Music and Poetry were just what I did for me and I never shared it with anyone and yet aspired to put an album out. Poetry is Truth and often hard and embarrassing to share therefore I was terrified to do this.
Jan 15th 2008 I survived a horrible car wreck. I thought I was dying and gave myself to the higher power. Hours later from my hospital bed I vowed to start on my album. I suffered massive head trauma, broken ribs and other injuries.
I opted out of pain medication and concentrated on my music and poetry focussing on what made me “feel good.” People, places, foods, smells etc.
That list became a poem, that poem became this piece. x
Be good to each other
Carpe Diem” – Keith

Lyrics:

Chorus: 

Summer breeze feels good 
autumn leaves feels good 
when at ease we should, feel good real good 
sharing laughs feels good 
bubble baths feels good 
looking back we should 
feel good real good

waking up mornings to your smile 
making you cornbread grits and eggs, scrambled style 
taking trips to exotic tropical isles 
feel good, real good.

inside jokes bout other folks 
shared aspirations, dreams and hopes 
Langston, Maya and Gil Scott quotes, feel good, real good 

my two sons filling those shoes 
helping and guiding them with rules and clues 
knowing their mom and our families won’t let them loose  
feels good, real good 

slipping time sipping wine 
silly games like what’s that movie line 
you in the audience while I’m on stage kickn my rhymesz 
feel good, real good 

giving u my shoulder to rest your head 
helping me dry and twist my dreadzs 
soft kiss goodnight b4 goin to bed 
feels good real good 

falling asleep with the tv on 
knowing how good u’ve got it b4 its gone 
making love from dusk till dawn feels good real good 

learning and loving u all this while 
knowing we’ve travelled so many miles 
watching your tummy grow as u carried our child 
feels good real good 

Chorus: 
summer breeze feels good 
autumn leaves feels good 
when at ease we should 
feel good real good 
sharing laughs feels good 
bubble baths feels good 
looking back we should feel good real good

7. Here I Go Again ft. HYDRA, Ace Digital – by Keith WildChild Middleton & HYDRA

Comments: HYDRA!!!!!

Lyrics:

Chorus: 

Here I Go Again, Round and Round 
She makes my Whole World Spin 
Now I can Ride The Win 
Reach out and Touch The Clouds 
She Turns Me Out With Out a Doubt. 

(Keith/WildChild) 

Yeah, yeah, You know I like that whisper, shhhhhhhh 
Tongue writing penmanship round my licorice 
I’m ticklish, Yeah on that spot 
How’d you do that girl you got me so hot 
Baby don’t stop, nah don’t stop 
Twirl and swirl like a, like a blow pop 
Set it off, then I’m’a do, 
all those freaky little things that I promised you 
Yeah I promise to, pay homage to 
and peel and squeeze you like an orange do 
Get all the juice, get into it 
then get intimate and hit you with that wicked stick 
Now grab my dreadlocks, Get a handful 
grit your teeth, look me in my eyes and tell me i’m the man, Boo 
with Superman maneuvers and 
better hold tight ’cause the flow breaks the Hoover Dam 

Chorus 

(Rod/LR Blitzkrieg) 

Listen. ma I know you’re down for whatever 
so I’m down for wherever 
and the thought of us getting caught only makes it more better 
its sorta like a sport how we score in the clutch 
we in the park after dark playing two hand touch 
and after i capture your flag / its back to the lab 
sweating out your tracks listening to this track that i have 
so ma start packing your bags and just hop in the whip 
I tell her we going island hopping and she hops on the stick. shift, to the G4 where we sipping Moet 
and getting her mile high card only got her mo’ wet 
you gotta respect the kid he’s slightly out of your reach 
getting out of this world sex laying out on the beach 
it’s ‘Krieg.   

Said we’re gonna go 
All Night Long 
All night long 
We’re gonna go 
All Night Long 
twist your back out baby, you know my sex is crazy 
No if ands or maybes 
you know i got you Baby 

(Graeme/GMS) 

Now how’d we end up in this same predicament again? 
Lost in your lips like Vanilla mixed with Cinnamin 
Just when I think I’m out – You pull me in again, 
It’s scary when I know I’m SO ready to sin again, 
Pay you a visit, but this is too exquisite, 
Passionate kisses, pretending that it’s real, but we know it isn’t 
Antici … pation, heightens the fantasy, 
Tellin’ me on the phone you can’t wait to get your hands on me, 
Silent screams – face twisted like your feeling pain, 
I play it off, but deep inside I feel the same, 
So grip the sheets, or better yet hold onto me, 
Cause when the volcano erupts it’s where you wanna be 

Chorus 

All Night Long, All night Looooong …”

8. Transitions – by Keith WildChild Middleton

Comments: “Actions speak louder than words.” – Keith

Lyrics:

Transitions;

A passage from one form, style, subject or place to another. I’d hoped we’d both have clean slates when we made our transitions towards each other & when I let u discover that I

love you

I tried my best which is all that I know

I gave u my all & I let it flow

prayed to the most high to swing down low to carry us in his chariot just to let it show that I

love you

now I’m at a stalemate, damned if I do or don’t there’s no fail safe

and I haven’t felt safe or even in first place

and I wasn’t prepared for this worst case when I told u that I

love you

when in love u can’t help but convey

actions speak louder than words is what they say

and my actions broke barriers of sound

spoke in volumes u never asked me to turn down

your face so profound when I said I

love you

couldn’t put my finger on it

wrap my mind around it, had to linger on it, took my time and found it

we weren’t as grounded as I thought we were

what u led me to believe and see was just a blur

but its been a blessing

to be able to communicate with u without any stressing

but matters of the heart I’m guessing were matters that were too dark or too hard to be confessing or both or more

especially towards me who’s all about addressing it to the core

thought by pressing we’d endure

simply suggesting we explore

had u building walls and closing doors

love you

I know what u like, I’ve got what u need and whenever u want it baby girl its garaunteed

u won’t have to worry, my loves always here, just make a wish and baby girl I shall appear

love you

those were the words I’d whisper in your ear

before it all turned & I wish we weren’t here

but whatever He did it prevented u to hear no matter how loud or how clear whenever I said that I

love you

days grew short while nights grew long

tried everything but treat u wrong

so if by now u r hearing this song then by now u probably notice I’m gone.

9. SupaStahh – by Keith Middleton

Comments: “Took me well over a year to get enough courage to record it and actually finish the verse in the booth. I couldn’t get through it no matter how hard I tried. I would have to step away from this one for months. These are issues that clearly affect me to this day. Now that I’ve recorded it, it’s still hard to listen to but I’m happy it’s done and I do feel a little better. We all have wounds.” – Keith

x

Lyrics:

They go Oooh and Ahhh when I reach for my car 

Cuz Im a SupaStar 

I’ve got a way with wayward words 

Kind of flagrant with those verbs 

But its flava when its served 

To seduce u 

Kind of famous so uve heard 

Not your favorite or preferred 

Its ok im not concerned with what ure used to 

But out of all the girls, throughout all of this world 

She wouldnt give me the time of day leavin me with nothing to say 

Left me speachless in my tracks 

So I’ll speak this on this track 

when the speakers speak it back 

you’ll hear me try to speak it into… 

(CHORUS) 

Existence 

Cause I’d rather be with u my dear, right here right now 

So I’ll speak it into 

Existence, 

Dont be mad at me, I promise u some day some way, some how 

I’m, gonna get u, I, I’m gonna get u, 

I’m, gonna get u 

Gonna get u, gonna make u my baby. 

Cuz I’m a shooting star, I was a suped up star 

SupahStaahhh 

7 days she made we weak 

2 daized to even speak 

Tueday had two left feet 

Must be trippin 

Be a maze to even reach 

Be amazed to even reach 

B, she may seem hard to reach 

it’s ’cause I’m slippin 

Now if u (see me fall) 

Then u have (seen it all ) 

(Take it from the one who thought love, was something only fools just spoke of) 

Ask for change expect some cents 

What was strange once now makes sense 

Never in vain now ever since 

I strive to speak it into 

Existence 

Chorus: 

And here u are, my wildest dream 

This SupaStahh’s, not what he seems 

I’ve read my scars, n what they mean 

The one I want 

does not want me 

And here u are, my wildest dream 

Your SupaStahh’s, not what he seems 

I’ve read my scars, n what they mean 

The one I Love 

does not Love me  

Falling falling falling falling 

Ever Falling, ever falling 

look at me 

I’m a fraud 

look at me shining star still ignored 

brand new gear all store bought 

look at me 

been around the block and abroad and still aint got shit to show for it 

look at me 

pretending to be pragamtic possibly paranoid its all white noise and static 

possibility of becoming exposed becoming problematic 

probability is mathematic 

it’s just a matter of time 

I’m saying, just look at it 

look at me 

still flippin words like gymnastics 

like my tongue tatics fantastic with forward and backward tucks, 

flowing like aqueducts, trying to mask hurts and how I secretly believe my rappin sucks 

I should just write for the real me who conceals the pain and fear and insecurities that plagues my being 

inside and out 

I may look altogether but I’m just a shell hollow inside and outsmarting those who think they know cuz I’m from the same cloth or path or route 

look at me 

To her 

I’m apparently transparent 

look who i’ve become 

hiding deciding I seem stronger if i rep where I’m from 

Brooklyn!!! 

I say it as though it’s my first and last name 

my claim to reputable fame 

BROOKLYN 

maybe the louder I get the prouder I may feel 

but it aint where u from its where u at 

and where Im at is this dark space this unlit space void of energy 

avoiding synergy to enter me and that’s what’s real 

Look at me 

When i focus, I notice whatever my Prognosis, it usually results With 

Self diagnosis and just when I think I’m closest to close this a new turmoiltulous opus opens at its solstice 

Vicious cycle 

 Makes me hopeless 

Half battered haphazard 

I Laugh at it always played 

Charismatic n precocious 

Defense mechanisms methodically pragmatic n ferocious 

I have issues with closeness 

My biological broke this 

He Bounced before I could walk 

And by the time I could talk I only knew him as that wino my grandparents would help out from time to time yo whenever I came over on weekends because he was homeless 

Didn’t kno I came from him till I was about 8 or 9 

 and I’d only seen him a few times  

and by 12 I remember he gave me a dollar I hv yet to spend 

I held on to it until I lost it 

Saw him at my grandfathers funeral where I felt ostracized because I was young n dumb n took for granted my grandfather would always be there for life, by my side 

So my phone calls and visits to him had been far n few between n I almost screamed n made a scene when they told me he asked for me from his deathbed. 

Please find Keith,he said.  till this day it still fks with my head 

Biological contacted me 6 yrs later From some institution 

Said he saw me on tv, said he was proud, it was so confusing 

and then he said I hope u dont hate me, 

I told him nah, 

i asked him if I had any siblings, 

he said nah Keith, I just made you baby.  

we exchanged pleasantries and ended our flow, that was about 

16 yrs ago 

So 

Look at my 

Emptiness 

my empty nest is left 

a filthy mess 

lined with lost souls I have collected in vain 

designed to insulate. 

cold and pure pain pumping thru my veins 

a lost soul guiding others to my cross roads which I myself refuse to venture. I just rest here patiently waitng procrastinating decision making 

a coward in a hero’s guise 

I cower under hero’s pride 

pretending my power is to protect and guide 

instead its a dude in a rented suit spittin hollow truths and empty lies 

To summarize 

I make an effort some of the time to get up and look down the road a stretch 

stretching my neck peering at the roads right and left where they connect 

But now I just point in the direction frontn like my direction will provide protection secretly jealousy admiring their own foolish bravery thinking I’m saving them instead they are saving me 

showing me I too can climb if I lead with my heart when I free my mind 

its painful to pronounce 

too painful to even print out 

but if I am to change I must refrain from the same mundane game 

like I front like I know what the fk I’m talkn bout  

look at me 

Supahstarrrrrrr 

Stupid Star

10. Speed of Life – by Keith WildChild Middleton

Comments: “Wrote this after I completed SupaStahh. I have a better sense of calm.” – Keith

lyrics:

Ohmmmmm

we r one, under God’s sun

indivisible, indispensable, invincible, in principle, intentional, intense and full

of love, light and laughter

loss and lessons of life worth living and the hear after

after the chapter

after the capture and enwrapped in the rapture

the straight and narrow path to what man lacks and can never manufacture

The Benefactor was Eve and Adam’s fracture

bearing the weight of the forbidden fruits wrath to

facing all fates

pushing forward towards the hidden truths because we have to, backwards in fact is never a factor

moving at the speed of life….

Sonically we adapt to the

Ominous, Omnivorous, Omnipresent, Omnifarious, Omniscient,Omnipotent, Omniparous

Here before us, Here before us, Hear the chorus, we’re enormous

we’re Joyous,we enjoy us and then join us

we two are one, Under God’s sun in unison we have sung with the

Ohmmm

in unison we have come to the

Ohmmmm

traveling at the speed of life

11. Groan In Sexii ft Double R – by Keith WildChild Middleton

Comments: “I was in “That Mood” and so inspired. Dedicated to those who have this type of connection with the one you love.” – Keith

Lyrics:

Chorus:

Can’t get enough of, your precious lovin’

Its all I think of when, you’re not around me babe

you’re the one I crave, everyday

long for your touch and sexii seduction,

dirty discussion wanna share something babe

(wanna share something with you baby)

I wanna misbehave, in every way

We’re both grown and sexy

put the groan in sexii

make u moan if u let me, if only u let me

roam, if I’m set free

I won’t miss a step see, I zone in the moment and own it and yes we

completely, discreetly speak a language between the sheets we,

speak that body language in the streets we

understand how I can read u and u can reach me with

only half a glance then its happenstance soon as we

have the chance to have this dance u can teach me

your tango

while u feed me kiwi peaches and mangos from every angle

get intwined, enthralled and entangled

and I don’t mind at all when u call out to Osirus Zeus Aphrodite, and Chango

we channel them

through our twists and turns

our trysts in turn create wrists that burn from grips that’s tight and firm

from 4word play to word play to 4 play which is all day to role play to letting our souls say who controls the sway

this way we’re equals in all ways..

but tonight you’re mine and surprises are my 4tay…

Chorus:

Can’t get enough of, your precious lovin’

Its all I think of when youre not around me babe

you’re the one I crave, everyday

long for your touch and sexii seduction,

dirty discussion wanna share something babe

(you’re late)

I wanna misbehave, in every way

u’ve been naughty again might have to scold ya, completely unclothe u

now I’ll blind fold’ya

shhhh u shouldve done what I told’ya

now follow my voice and keep cummin closer

take smaller steps

in this direction

you’re holding your breath

here’s a suggestion

relax your mind and let your conscious be free

ease back recline give your body to me

smell, taste, hearing, touch

u only need these 4 senses for our lil game of trust

I have oil and feathers candles and leather

music, ice, incense and oh, that’s to make it flow better

with me u should kno better

take this for granted I wont ever

arriving late on purpose, ure so clever

I feel no pressure its so easy with you in every measure

one mans loss is another mans treasure

and I’m so glad we’ve come across what we thought might be losed forever

together our attitudes are like now or never

and that powers our endeavors

providing hours of pleasure

can u handle hours of pleasure

now place your hands behind your back

yeah just like that

let me know if it’s too tight ok…..u ready……

12. Majestic – by Keith WildChild Middleton

Comments: “u get what u give so live how u love and love how u live or try before the love of your life is out of your life and your life passes u by” – Keith

Lyrics:

Every single Day 

Better not take life for Granted, Better live it like He planned it, Better treat her right and tell her everyday(every dayyyy) 

Something about the way u say my name 

(my name) 

I get these Butterflies up inside the way u look at me just b4 those sultry lips change 

( Butterflies, oohhh change) 

to formulate that word that was bestowed upon this infant that instance I came into this world 

(Say my name) 

Say it again baby 

(Say my name) 

See you make it sound Majestic as if i were a king from a distant land that arrived unexpected to kiss your hand 

and those eyes, those beautiful eyes reveal even more, reflective and sure, perspective is pure and earnest 

and i constantly find myself concerned with whether or not 

I deserve this kingly service 

in part, my heart is conflicted, 

i feel as though I’m addicted to this royal treatment you’ve inflicted, insisted that i chillax and sit back 

no matter how hard i resisted you persisted telling me shhh baby I gotchyou, 4get it 

(Just relax) 

The other part of my heart is pumping to tell me something like 

this is a once in a lifetime groove and to treat her right or your Queen you’ll loose 

and end up with nothing so stop fronting and choose 

but sometimes baby, you seem too good to be true 

Chorus: 

so in the end my friends, to me she conveys in so many words and in so many ways that u get what u give so live how u love and love how u live or try before the love of your life is out of your life and your life passes u by because b4 u kno it… It can all be over in the blink of an eye…

13. Ode To The Damsel I Have Distressed ft. Jonathan Hoard – by Keith WildChild Middleton

Comments: “A compilation of adulthood regrets.” – Keith

Lyrics:

Why do you haunt me, I want you to want me 

How could I let you go, out of my life 

Why did I let you 

I’ve tried to keep my mind occupied. I’ve tried. I’ve Been workin it over time and over time and it’s only wearing me down inside and its only tearing me down in size. Each second that goes by is more unbearable than the last . Hard to breathe with ease as I have achieved in the past. 

I’m Tired of tossing and turning my tear ducts teared out.I feel as if my heart has been torn out u have left me completely worn out and still I miss u. 

And I I kno u miss it cuz I miss it 

we loved it, we lived it, 

we saw it we bought it, we did it, 

we were committed till it shattered. 

I guess the truth of the matter was only my truth mattered  

I’m so torn up over u 

I sit back n listen to our songs our soundtrack to our epic love noir poem that went wrong 

I’ve watched and remembered every scene and every frame by illicit frame. 

The action the drama the romance the comedy the irony of our tragic end and say wow we almost made it then 

I replay it, everything and cut it off just before the break up 

those scenes brings tears to my eyes 

pain to my heart 

ache in my bones 

sorrow wells inside 

I can’t stand that ending 

I wish we could rewrite it and shoot it 

and substitute for this now reality which quite honestly bothers me 

cuz I’m (mad at this) protagonist 

everyone knows he (has to kiss )the damsel in distress (after his) rescuing her from being 

(damn to this) that life she once (had with this) hazardous arch nemesis who’s treatment 

of her was scandalous, the protagonist ran from this madness. 

That’s what his disastrous answer is 

Every one knows except for him, the hero who wound up with zero nada zilch 

nothing but pain from heartache and guilt for not sticking to his guns and not forsaking her for anyone 

and for not taking her off into the sun as it set 

instead he retreats in regret remorse he cannot reset and keep in check. 

that’s why I hate this ending. 

I wonder if you watch it, I wonder if u listen to the soundtrack, 

I wonder if you laugh or cry live and die with the hero and the damsel 

I wonder if u watch them move forward towards tragedy screaming at the screen or do u pause it so that they stand still and if u pause it do u smile does a tear slide down your cheek all the while your heart leaks hope and optimism 

or 

do u think that villainous marshall murphy and his laws are out to get them 

do u have any ideas on how to rewrite this script 

i’d love to collaborate and elaborate with u on it 

on all that was great and at the end make it so the 2 won’t have to wait they will be living in a grander state of bliss and off they go off into the sunset on a Harley, him smiling cause he finally got his wish which is her and she him and they too finally get their kiss

Comments: “Goofing around with a friend i came up with the have to go part just to be silly but then really liked how it went to the track and BOOM. hahahaha, That’s how it is sometimes..You get inspiration from weirdest situations.” – Keith

Lyrics:

Can I make u, my queen for the night, 

Seems he aint treatn u right, 

It would be my delight,  

Can i take u oooohhhuh, off to paradise, 

get prepared for the  flight 

Are u scared of heights,  

Can i wake u, with a sweet surprise, 

Right between your thighs, 

Make u scream and cry, 

Ohhhh 

The things i could do to u 

Hold on tight its a bumpy ride, 

Dont let go till you’re satisfied.. 

I wanna totally blow your mind 

I can get u in the mood baby 

For Interludes in the nude lady 

But u keep tellin me u 

Ha ha ha hav have to go 

I dont believe u really 

Ha ha ha have have to go 

Your body says yes, your mind says no, 

Your Heart confessed 

U love our flow 

But u keep tellin me u  

Ha ha ha have have to go 

Come closer Miss, 

come get another dose of this explosive ferociousness 

we both can grab a hold of it 

but there’s no controlling this 

since we both kiss 

with so much emotion we become motionless, 

we just float in this 

open bliss, high above all who can only hope for this,  

suspended yet cemented to each other and even still independent of one another,  

I’m so convinced 

all outside our circumference 

won’t exist. 

 you and I at the helm exploring our own realm eye to eye,hand in hand  

woman and man heart to heart, beating in time as one is where our focus is 

we share the same cloth woven by the same thread as if we were chose for this as if we were bread to lead lost loves out of their hopelessness, , 

as moses did 

with an openness as deep and wide as the ocean is 

so, come closer miss 

and savor the flava its so intense 

take your time you’ll never find a one of a kind  

groove like mine as pleasurebly slow as this  

but by all means please feel free to feel the groove, listen to the smooth croon of this vocalist 

let this combination fill u up with inspiration and motivation creative participation as you move to this 

slowly move to this 

and as we move to this  

you and I find peace of mind as we climb ever so high reaching bending grinding transcending twisting intertwining ascending then descending  

embracing what a true tantric moment is 

Ohhh 

the things i would do to u 

Hold on tight its a bumpy ride, dont let go till your satisfied… 

I wanna totally blow your mind 

I can get u in the mood baby, for interludes in the nude lady 

But u keep telling me u 

Ha ha ha have have to go 

I dont believe u really 

Ha ha ha have to go 

Your body says yes, your mind says no 

Your heart confessed, you love our flow 

But u keep telling me 

Ha ha ha have to go…… 

Why u gotta go, baby

Lyrics:

We smitten pre written prophecy 

Sweet kitten hes hitten shes twitchn keep mixin deep fittn got to be 

The best ever, sex ever, epic odyssey

Past or present, passionate sessions, magnificent magnified mad infinite, lasting lessons, without asking questions, smoke and mirrors, masking directions, collapse in her lap as I lapse in her essence climax is miraculous my neck and my back in this, effortlessly effervesent immaculate connection, masters of deception, disaster if we’re stressin cuz thats the catylyst for our last indiscretion, Steppin over Transgressions we cant let this go, ignorance is a blessing and we cant let them know 

at the same functions we can let it show, flys on the wall eyes on us all wanna see us both climb then wanna see from how hi we gon fall underdog with hog J Lin with the ball This goes out to all of yall 

when u kno that is wrong but the feelings r strong it was etched in stone and 

revealed in songs 

never kno what u got till what ya got gets gone
