One for the treble,
Two for the bass,
Come on Rakim, let's rock this place

Here's the deal mama, me and you in the bahama
Begin the saga, I massage your persona
I got to have it, until it's automatic
Become a fanatic, until your aura is organic
It's more than my mystic when we come from here
Put my cheek on your cheek, and my tongue in your ear
Set the tone one touch is all it took
When I get busy disconnect the phone off the hook

Unlike my past relations,
You were into more than friendly dating,
Didn't have no time for games,
Just state your claims
And I feel just the same way about you,
Started out with just one touch,
But I never knew I'd get good of it kissing, hugging you love to hear,

Off the hook is unexplainable,
Your love is off the hook,
It's so unattainable,
Between us this fire, desire inside your love is off the hook

Oh it really turns me on,
How my man so sensitive and warm,
Knows what I want to me,
But give it to me and I'll do just the same for my man,
Started out with just one touch,
But I never knew I'd get good of it kissing, hugging you love to hear,

Off the hook is unexplainable,
Your love is off the hook,
It's so unattainable,
Between us this fire, desire inside your love is off the hook

Never been so happy, (what's up, say word)
For your love is off the hook, (yeah, yeah, Rakim Allah baby)
Oh, crazy insane I lose my cool, (uh, go ahead Jody)
Your loving, kissing, hugging, your love is ( what, word, uh,)

Check it out, my love it ambitious, and not to grant you wishes
Hold your hands, give you hugs, and romance and kisses
Each glance is delicious, any stance is precious
Even sweat pants and slippers, while you doing the dishes
Its shook, when you show off and cook
We're forced to look, yo baby you off the hook
Checking your measurements, it's precious and delicate
Highly intelligent, it's elegant elements
We've been friends for awhile now, I'm on the prowl
I know your style now, So I'ma make a bow
I put my charm on her, The Don Warner
I put the magic wand on her, and drop the bomb on her
Tender touches, now I lust for lady lucious
Show her what crazy love is, until the blood rushes
Step to my P.I., see why, cause she fly
J-O-D-Y, W-A-T-L-E-Y

Off the hook is unexplainable,
Your love is off the hook,
It's so unattainable,
Between us this fire, desire inside your love is off the hook

Off the hook is unexplainable,
Your love is off the hook,
It's so unattainable,
Between us this fire, desire inside your love is off the hook

Off the hook is unexplainable,
Your love is off the hook,
It's so unattainable,
Between us this fire, desire inside your love is off the hook

Word up, It's off the hook baby,
Rakim Allah and Jody Watley,
On the remix side my man D-Dot baby, lacing it up for '98,
Battle tune coming through your living room soon,
My man Bill Blass

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
