Testo The Root - D'Angelo
Testo della canzone The Root (D'Angelo), tratta dall'album Voodoo
See, um, let me tell you a story, you know what I'm sayin'?
One, two, three, four
She done worked a root, ooh, ooh
Done worked a root that will not be reversed, yeah, no
And then I'll go on, go on
Go on my role in her play with no rehearsal, yeah
Said, I left my mojo (mojo, mojo)
Left my mojo in my favorite suit, huh
Yes, I did, yeah
She left a stain, left a dirty stain in my heart I can't refute
No, I can't, no, I can't
She done worked a root, root
In the name of love and war (in the name)
Took my shield and sword (and sword)
From the pit of the bottom (bottom)
That knows no floor (oh, oh)
Like the rain to the dirt (oh, Lord, ah)
From the vine to the wine (from the vine)
From the Alpha creation (oh, Lord)
To the end of time
Yeah, to the end of all time
(Said I went) I said I went to the doctor
The man told me there ain't nothin' wrong
Yeah, nothing wrong, yeah
Said, "But I beg to differ
I been feelin' this pain much too long," oh, yeah
I feel like my soul is empty, mm
My blood is cold and I can't feel my legs (yeah, yeah)
I need someone to hold me, hold me
Bring me back to back to life before I'm dead
Oh, yeah
She done worked a root
In the name of love and war
Took my shield and sword
From the pit of the bottom, hm
That knows no floor
Like the rain to the dirt
From the vine to the wine
From the Alpha creation to the end of time-ime
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh (oh)
Ooh, doo, dee, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Ah, oh, doo, doo, ah
I feel my soul is empty (I'm so empty)
My blood is cold, and I can't feel my legs (and my blood is cold, yeah)
And I need, yeah
Need someone to hold me (anyone to hold me?)
Bring me back to life before I'm dead (dead, yeah, dead)
She done worked a root, yeah
In the name of love and war
She took my shield and sword
From the pit of the bottom, hm (yeah, yeah, ah)
That knows no floor (knows no floor)
Like the rain to the dirt (hey)
From the vine to the wine (wine)
From the Alpha creation, to the-
In the name of love and war (in love and war)
She took my shield and sword (oh)
From the pit of the bottom, hm (pit of the bottom)
That knows no floor (oh, oh)
Like the rain to the dirt (oh yeah)
From the vine to the wine (wine)
From the Alpha creation to the- (oh)
In the name of love and war
She took my shield and sword (took my sheild)
From the pit of the bottom (bottoms, yeah)
That knows no floor (that knows no floor)
Like the rain to the dirt (rain dirt)
From the vine to the wine (ah)
From the Alpha creation, to the- (ah, ah)
In the name of love and war (yeah)
Took my shield and sword (yeah, oh, oh)
From the pit of the bottom (hey, hey-hey-hey, baby)
That knows no floor (oh)
Like the rain to the dirt (ah, ah)
From the vine to the wine (ah, wine)
From the Alpha creation, to the- (hey, yeah)
In the name of love and war
Took my shield and sword (took shield and sword)
From the pit of the bottom (pit of the bottom)
That knows no floor (oh, oh)
Like the rain to the dirt (yeah)
From the vine to the wine (from vine)
From the Alpha creation (ah)
To the end of time
Like the rain to the dirt, from the vine to the wine
From the Alpha creation to the end of time
One, two, three
