	Love rain down on me,on me,down on me(4x)
	Met him on a thursday,sunny afternoon
	Cumulus clouds, 84 degrees
	He was brown,deep
	Said he wanted to talk about my mission
	Listen to my past lives (word?)
	Took me on long walks to places where butterflies rest easy
	Talked about moses and mumia
	Reparations,blue colors,memories of shell topped adidas
	He was fresh,like summer peaches
	Sweet on my mind like block parties and penny candy
	Us was nice and warm,no jacket,no umbrella,just warm
	At night we would watch the stars
	And he would pyhsically　give me each and every one
	I felt like cayenne pepper,red,hot,spicy
	I felt dizzy and so near the heavens and miles between my thighs
	Better than love,we made delicious
	He me had,had me he
	He made me tongue tied
	I could hear his rhythm in my thoughts
	I was his sharp, his horn section
	His boom and his bip
	And he was my love
	Love rain down on me,on me,down on me
	The rain was fallin and,and slowly and sweetly and stinging my eyes
	And i could not see that he became my voodoo priest
	And i was his faithful concubine
	Wide open,wide,loose like bowels after collard greens
	The mistake was made
	Love slipped from my lips
	Dripped down my chin and landed in his lap
	And us became new
	Now me non-clairvoyant and in love
	Made the coochie easy and the obvious invisible
	The rain was falling
	And i couldn't see the season changing
	And the vibe slipping off it's axis
	Our beautiful melody became wildly staccato
	The rain was falling and i could not see
	That i was to be plowed and sowed and fertilized
	And left to drown in his sunny afternoon
	Cumulus clouds,84 degrees,melody
	Love rain down on me,on me,down on me (2x)
	{mos def}
	In stretched my arms towards the sky like blades of tall grass
	The sun beat in between my shoulders like carnival drums
	I sat still in hopes that it would help my wings grow
	So then i would really be fly
	And then she arrived
	Like day break inside a railway tunnel
	Like the new moon,like a diamond in the mines
	Like high noon to a drunkard,sudden
	She made my heart beat in a now-now time signature
	Her skinny canvas for ultarviolet brushstrokes
	She was the sun's painting
	She was a deep cognac color
	Her eyes sparkled like lights along the new city
	She lips pursed as if her breath was too sweet
	And full for her mouth to hold
	I said,'you are beautiful,distress of mathematics.'
	I said,'for you, i would peel open the clouds like new fruit.'
	And give you lightning and thunder as dowry
	I would make the sky shed all of its stars like rain
	I would clasp the constellations around your waist
	And i would make the heavens your cape
	And they would be please to cover you
	They would be pleased to cover you
	May i please,cover you,please.
