Kawann Shockley - I Put A Spell On You lyrics

Verse 1: I remember when it all begun When I first knew I was the one Several months before '91 When the stars lined up and it was done I'm no longer the addict's son I evolved from the average one How the pawn really mastered drum Everybody's voice is what I become Now the girls wanna be my friends And the guys claim me as they kin Other guys I truly offend Guess this rap must have got under they skin See I'm getting famous that means my name is On everybody even teachers' lips I proceed now to lead the kids If I could teach what I'd teach is this First of all always have a dream Those who dream continue to breathe ‘Cause when it's absent then you're stagnant And you tragically are deceased Look at me see the way I live No resentment using my gift I ain't saying it's always been easy Believe me it is what it is There were times I wanted to quit Unappreciated for my spit It's like I deviated just a bit But I'm loving' it it's like a covenant So I write a song or I make a beat Then revise until they complete But the cycle in incomplete Any song repeat I can swear I hear her say to me… (Nina Simone recording: “I put a spell on you, ‘cause you're mine.”) Verse 2: When you first heard me kick a verse In a cipher or in a church In your life I begin to thirst Not to be reversed even 'til hurts It's like a cult that you gotta join Or a vault with a thousand [?] Or a talk you cannot avoid Having with yourself to deal with the void And the voice is my outer one A mystery as to how it's done Multitudes come and out of one Make sense, see the tint? How's the sun? Don't get lost in the metaphor Rather drift into meta thought All I need is a few syllables You're forever mine, I'm forever yours Ever since Rapademics dropped Ever since Inner City Soul In a session without a question Began your obsession with O On the net onto Myspace Every message on my page Every download that you found yo Every record that I gave Every friend that you ever told Every disc that I ever sold I'm convinced that I'll never go Away from your heart, I call it my home From the moment you press play To the time you reject a I just wanna tell it to you all straight So you always understand why you think I'm great It's ‘cause (Nina Simone recording: “I put a spell on you, ‘cause you're mine.”)
