All Night Long

[common (with badu singing in background)]

Yeah.. wanna feel the vi ah hi hibe

Wanna feel the vibe wanna feel the vi ibe!

Uhhh.. wanna what? yeah

Wanna what? uhh yeah (come on)

Every bod' c'mon uhh

Yo yo.. (all night long)

[common]

Durin divine hours i use mind power to refine

Flour/flower girls and make em feel like black pearls

Get they minds off acryllic nails and the rap world

It's a lot you can find in the lost black girl

Made signs built in lodges, we be in garages

Discussin who we boned and who god is

Pro-black like craig hodges with my dashikis in the cleaners

I kick it for the chevy ridin head to backstreet leaners

[erykah badu (with common)]

[common]

Check it, check it

I was born underwater with three dollars and a cocktail

Tryin to make the garden of eden, out of auckdale and rockwell

Lock'd in this grid like a tupac tale

While her-on rock smells make the cops tail

My third eye is my rail, on this illa-thought

With afrocentric stamps i'm mailin thoughts

To my gods held in court

I dwell where rebellion's taught, and emotions seldom walk

I try to walk like an egyptian, with hieroglyphics spelled in chalk

I guess the hustlin is the unspoken gospel

Love that i'm an apostle, feel the holy spirit of chicago

E bottom, here's the bottle

I think i, need a cup of a tea, because i'm novel

(come on bay-bayyy) bust it

[erykah badu]

Iahhhhh jus' wanna rock you

Alllllll night looooong

Allllllll (come on bay-bayyy)

All night long.. all night long..

All night long.. on and on and on and onnnn (come on bay-bayyy)

Iahhhhh jus' wanna rock you (all night long)

Alllllll night looooong (all night long)

Allllllll (on and on and on and onnnn) [hah, uh-huh]

Iahhhhh (all night long) jus' wanna rock you (all night long)

Alllllll night looooong (all night long)

{what? yo-yo, yo-yo yo-yo check it, check it}

On and on and on and onnnn

A portrait of the artist, formerly known as sense

The brain-wash, with my vocal tones i rinses

Opportunity and the beat knocks

Women, give me rhythm like beatbox, but it's the year

Of completion, i want a queen to complete rash'

Who's flavored from stacks, to reeboks

Send blessings to the family of ice mike

Shit like that, don't help me write right, but i got site/sight

Like a destruction worker, when it's time to build

Get off like sam jack' and it's +time to kill+

In perseverence i'ma find a meal, and provoke

My gramps used to trick off big papers at the riverboat

It go..

[erykah badu (with common)]

Allllll.. niiiiiight.. all night

Allllll.. niiiiiight.. you got it goin all night

Allllll.. niiiiiight.. y'know, y'know it all night

Allllll.. niiiiiight.. oahahhhoahhohhhhhh (yea, yeah)

[erykah badu]

Iahhhhh jus' wanna rock you (one more time)

Alllllll night looooong, oahhhhohhh (ebb in feelings)

Iahhhhh jus' wanna rock you (i ain't sleeping)

Alllllll night looooong (all night long)

On and on and on and onnnn

[common]

Check it

I walk downtown to tempos and never lose the beat

Some people got ignorance confused with bein street

On the, street of desire my body and soul meet

Arguin over thick broads and meals with no meat

Had the cold feet for a second

Mega-niggaz in my box throwin suggestions

Had me checkin myself and double checkin, i popped the +resurrection+

In the mirror i only heard my reflection

Let me hold mics, while you hold dicks and cd collections

And at musicland and coop's, we can make connections

I meditate with confidence, to not chomp on cents

Outspoken like 30's but yet i guard my lips

Writin niggaz with stripes, i hold posture with

Poppin shit to fat broads, wearin os-trich

Givin em voicemail, tracks are like county

To them i voice-jail/gel, if you believe in heaven

Why is the choice hell? why is this choice hell?

Why is this choice hell?

[erykah badu]

Ooahhhoahhhhh (ah keep on, ah keep.. ah don't you give up)
