(Infamous it don't stop)

hmmm....nah hmmm hmm

(Yeh yeh Infamous knock em out the box)

(yo yo yo)

oh oh oh oh

(I got you stuck off the realness)

hmm hm hm

(Infamous knock em out the box)

uhoh ohhh....

(I got you stuck off the realness)

yeh...ooh

It wasn't raining yet

But it was definately

A little misty on

That warm November night

And my heart was pounding

My inner voice resounding

Begging me to turn away

But I just had to see your face

To feel alive

And then you casually walked into the room

And I was twisted in the web

Of my desire for you

(And I was twisted)

My apprehension blew away

I only wanted you

To taste my sadness

As you kissed me in the dark

Everytime I feel the need

I envision you caressing me

And go back in time

To relieve the splendor of you and I

On the rooftop that rainy night

And so we finished the Moet and

Started feeling liberated

And I surrendered as you took me

In your arms

(you took me in your arms)

I was so caught up in the moment

I couldn't bear to let you go yet

(So I....)

Threw caution to the wind

And started listening to my longing heart

And then you softly pressed your lips to mine

And feelings surfaced I'd suppressed

For such a long time

(And I was lifted)

And for a while I forgot

The sorrow and pain

And melted with you as we stood

There in the rain

Everytime I feel the need

I envision you caressing me

And go back in time

To relieve the splendor of you and I

On the rooftop that rainy night (Repeat again)

Last night I dreamed that I

Whispered the words I love you

And touched you so very

Subtly as we were kissing goodbye

[RAP (Mobb Deep):]

(Infamous rocks the box)

I got you stuck off the realness

Feel this pourin down on your buildings

The rain about to fall us

Score up in the project call

Third floor gravitates

On the staircase

As we embrace strictly loud without the raw base

Me and my ol' dog blowin

Out the smokes fog

But over all you the one that's like my pistol

I said crystal

Keep you on my side

Til the ficial (yo yo yo yo)

Ain't it ill how we click boo

Just me and you

Got me stuck off the realness

Just me and you

Up on the roof beats

Peable beach

Talk to me anytime

Even when i wit my peeps

Ruler L why you smell like the perfume Channel

Push big G's

Rappin all is simply heavy

We can do it on a roof top

Do it til we both drop M-O-B-B

With Mariah sounds so hot

Everytime I feel the need

I envision you caressing me

(Envision you caressing me)

And go back in time

(I go back)

To relieve the splendor of you and I

On the rooftop that rainy night

(On the roof that rainy night)

Everytime I feel the need

(When I feel the need)

I envision you caressing me

(I envision you over and over and over again)

And go back in time

(I go back)

To relieve the splendor of you and I

(It was oh so sweet you and I)

On the rooftop that rainy night

(On that rainy night)

Everytime I feel the need

(Last night I had the strangest dream...)

I envision you caressing me

(It actually quite symbolic)

And go back in time

(As I whispered...that I loved you)

To relieve the splendor of you and I

(...very subtly)

Everytime I feel the need

(Infamous ya don't stop, Infamous rocks your box)

I envision you caressing me (Infamous knock out the box)

And go back in time

To relieve the splendor of you and I (Infamous rocks your box)

On the rooftop that rainy night (infamous knocks em off the box)
