Jill Scott F- Mos Def Love Rain (head Nod Remix) Lyrics

Love Rain (head Nod Remix) Lyrics

[Mos Def]

 There was this daddy long leg spider 

 Who spun his lyrics between the trees

 And she was the fly girl who didn't see the web

 And this is the story

 

 [Jill and Mos]

 Love(love rain)rain(a rain down)down

 (Said what you say i say love)love(love rain)rain

 (A rain down)down(I said what you say I say love)love

 (a love rain)rain(a rain down)down(I say what you say)

 (Brand new and live from Jill Scott)

 (Making the ghetto feel hot and say what you say)

 (let'em know)

 

 [Jill]

 Met him on a Thursday sunny afternoon cumulus clouds

 84 degrees he was brown

 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 and memories of the shell

 tops

 Aww yeah yeah he was fresh

 Like summer peaches sweet on my mind like block

 parties

 and penny candy oh oh

 

 Chorus

 

 [Jill]

 The rain was falling slowly and sweetly

 And stinging my eyes and I could not see that

 He became my voodoo priest and I his faithful

 concubine

 Oh oh oh oh (Mos chanting in African dialect)

 Wide open wide the mistake was made

 (Don't front, you know I got you open)

 Love slipped from my lips, dripped down my chin

 And landed in his lap and us became brand new

 And the sky was blue

 

 Chorus

 

 [Mos]

 It was half past dusk, you were rocking black musk

 When your chariot stop low I made the clock wind slow

 Grabbed my hips, curled a kiss across my lips 

 Like a whisper (damn)

 Blue Train title track playing on the system

 Listen "la da di da da"

 It's John C you hum the melody in pitch and on key

 You was my quiet storm water sign

 Pushed me to the borderline

 Love that rumbled all the time

 Kept my senses on the grind, sweeter than some foreign

 wine

 The original raw

 Branded sweet like a cinnamon straw

 You was my hardest distraction

 My bombest distraction, my deepest inspiration

 My heat, my frustration

 But you diff from before you wasn't rifting before

 "I want that old thing back" baby gimme some more

 When clouds huddle in the sky 

 And tears well in your eye just...

 

 [Jill and Mos]

 (Hold on to the moment love)

 yes, you broke me but I'm human

 (Even now that it's over love)

 (Remember how it was over love, how deep we was

 overcome)Mending myself, love concealing

 (Just remember the moment love, you ? then blow me up)

 The pain(just hold on to the moment love)love rain

 (Remember how we was over love?) love rain

 (Remember how we was overcome?) love rain

 

 Repeat Jill Scotts verse

 [Mos]

 Just hold on to the moment love

 I'ma do what I got to do

 At night I still get hot for you

 With this ? that I got for you

 Just remember the moment love

 Remember how we was over love

 Shouldn't that just be enough

 Shouldn't that just be enough

 

 [Jill]

 Yes, you broke me down

 

 [Mos]

 You got to rock with that

 You got to rock with that

 Jill Scott non stop with that

 Said you got to rock with that

 Make your shoulders neck back rock with that

 Said you got to rock with that

 Get up and do the diddly bop with that

 Said you got to rock with that

 Let it get up in your shoulders and bop with that

 Said you got to rock with that

 Get up in your necks and bounce with that

 Ha Ha Jill Scott and Mos Def Sssss.....
