A cover of Lady Brown with an R&B spin on it. I tried a whole bunch of different vocal styles in this song and changed the raps to singing (except for the first 26 seconds.) I also added elements from "Feather," "Aruarian Dance," "Mystline," and "Kumomi."
All vocal/harmony arrangements were written by yours truly.
LYRICS (***denotes that I wrote the verse myself)
[Verse 1 - Rap]
Crush a coal to a diamond
Eyes forever shining
Your beauty alone inspire a n*gga to rhyming
Thinking of the better things in life
Thinking of how I could persuade you to become my wife
Hand in hand as we floating over tropical sands
You my lady, I'm ya man
So let's futher advance to the next scene
Me sleeping next to you resting
You are the personification of all God's blessings
[Verse 1 contd. - Jazz/R&B Style Singing]
Coming to me in just one physical being
One physical dream that I wanna redeem
You're voluptuous
sweet caramel brown honeydew
Satin skin smooth to the touch, what a n*gga do
***and Lady Brown, you know you're beautiful inside and out, and there's no doubt!
[Chorus]
Honey brown wit the long black hair
Teasing me with a kiss and a stare
Slight touch and you taking me there
So fine and it just ain't fair
So beautiful and so damn rare
[Verse 2 - Choir style singing]
She's angelic and energetic
Using sex as a weapon
I reckon that I'm confessing
Her body is just a blessing from God Down to earth
She needs to be in a church to prove that
We didn't spawn from fish but God's work
[Verse 2 cont.d - Pop style singing]
Hurts to see her clothed cause her body beholds
Secrets untold valued like platinum and gold
For she is the key to open my mind to see
The energy that radiates from the gates of heavenly bliss
I reminisce over touch and kiss
While you "f*cking a bitch" I wanna make love to my miss
***now baby give me a kiss, cuz you're my
Lady brown, you're mine
and babe you know you're so fine, you're divine, you're a one of a kind!
Lady, Brown you're mine
and you're more than just a dime I'm gonna love you till the end of time.
(Words from Nujabes dedication based on lyrics from "Feather")
***You drifted away like a feather in the air, riding that elevator to that something that is greater.
...but don't you worry bout a thing: we'll always play your beats, so please, please rest in peace.
RIP Seba Jun, aka Nujabes
