[Mos Def]
20
I dreamt that I could paint you in words
21
but there were no colors, bright enough
22
black or white enough
23
blue or green enough
24
it didnt mean enough
25
you are the star to touch the earth
26
shine bright for all eyes to see,
27
radiate and touch me
28
now Im shining like you do
29
it was dim before I knew you
30
bright light for weeping eyes to get used to
31
trust who? thats some shit I had to adjust to
32
soon as you relax they ease back and cold bust you
33
love murdered in Brooklyn, sound the alarm
34
but you still remain calm
35
my passion is unarmed
36
I try to practice my warlike tactics
37
but in your clutch, in your touch
38
my armor, just collapses
39
such bliss breeds obliviousness
40
I recollect sweet breath still wet on my lips
41
my prayers this:
42
God protect my beloved
43
and keep her covered
44
from the valley to the summit
45
like the land undiscovered
46
like the stars outnumbered, you are so beautiful.

(Talib Kweli)
62
You know what!
63
they say that beauty's in the eye of the beholder
64
so I use my third, and now our love is solid like a boulder
65
wanna build with you as I get older, and thats my word
66
sure as I stand on my ancestor's shoulders
67
you see through my drama and my world like a stage
68
not the same years but livin in the same age
69
its the KWELIty not the quantity
70

71
def-in-ate-ly,

far from probably.
73

75
like pieces of a man I used to be
76
now Im back because of what you do to me
77
you're like my reflection
78
the better half to my whole
79
like lyrics to the beat
80
you're the mate for my soul
81
the breath for my life, my sister and my lover
82
used to have cold feet, now you're the warmth under my covers
83
I cant ignore your aura because it grab me by the hand
84
like the moon pull the tide (mos & kweli)and the tide pull the sand
85
