Temptations: Note by Note
You’re tempted to leave…
Describe to me please, the definition of heartbreak
Singing to the trees, reason of treason, a heart ache
Mingle, to the jingle, with my girl, standing by me
Ranting, to the rant of the streets, no matter what I see
Chanting, to classics, told me their oldies, almost Jurassic
Pounding, around me, the echo of which is thoracic
Fact finding, fuck grinding, I’ll slow dance to bliss
Don’t mind me; I’m timing, the luck of a perfect kiss
Musical gods', moderation, needs to put in this generation
Lighting rod’s don’t attract as much as your old foundation
Sing to me, and please never stop…
…Ring the songs that cease to rock
To the top, on my block, to the park…
…Produce more love than Noah’s Ark
Raise, the rise of the unblind eyes, staring through time
Cage, the demise, of your talent, your voice, your mind
Singing with vocals, that could total Aretha’s voice box
My motto, is to model, a hand, that can stop a clock
Memorizing every dieing, glamorous song of yours
The corrupt erupted new wave of songs, generates a blur
Diving into your records, of record setting singles
Can't give me a single reason to not let my body tingle
I recognize your decade of ruling the musical world
As I realize my age wrecked the love of My Girl
Hip Hop took away…
…What used to be hip
We used to hop all day…
…Now we hop with a limp
Temptation to be patient, listening to what you wrote
The Temptations dazzled me singing each..note by note
…But I refuse to let you go
