Blackalicious
Powers
[Verse 1]
Met her out of town
In a small cafe
She had the motion of the ocean
How her hips did sway
She had everybody lookin' back
And everybody tookin' back
And anything she wanted all the guys obeyed

Now (she was) a sight for sore pupils
And a (she loves) to flaunt it cause she knows she got it
And (she does) the most intoxicating things
To make a man with worries feel like everything is okay

[Chorus] X 2
She got powers
And I think I want to get in her spell
(And I think I want to get in her spell)
Powers
Every bone inside me of all my cells
(Every bone inside me of all my cells)

[Verse 2]
She holds you down but when you need a push
She'll keep it honest, she reflects
Then she'll force you to look
She got everything you need
And got everything you dream about
Heaven's in her smile, she'll steal your heart like a crook
Now (she knows) exactly what you want and when
And (she goes) to any measures just to see you get it
And (she flows) like the Nile
I think that she was Nefertiti in a life before this present one was took

[Chorus] X 2

[Bridge]
P-O-W-E-R-S
Fizz and bubble when I see her yes
Want to see just how deep her abyss gets
Lost in the magic of her secret bliss
She is a bonafide keeper just
Want to travel inside and seek her depths
Mystique so fresh
From the west coast to the east coast
It's a death blow make a Negro get
Spun up in her web she don't need no net
People only behold
She knows just
What I need make an ego
Fly like an eagle
Feelin' regal, o b-o-y
O she's so fly
Lethal injection
Frozen in my step like deep in breath
Keepin'a brethren like me in a head spin
Doc take a rain check
She is the medicine
[Verse 3]
She got some tricks and she got some treats
She'll shake the ground underneath you
Knock you off your feet
You dig everything about her
From her head down to her follicles
Hear melodies and sounds of music when she speaks

Now (she stays) persistent with her energy
And (she plays) those games when it's time to play 'em
And (she ages) like the finest kind of wine
And just a whiff of her ferment will make your knees get weak
