dasuki - figure eight lyrics
verse 1
a good morning gift of gab to the gift of gaborone
small wonder the consulars don’t wanna leave her alone
she thinks her fingers are chunky & her toes unpretty
but nothing could be farther from the truth because really
every bit of her is just right right down to the freckles
even the wind smiles when it’s privileged to settle
on her face
all the hitherto shaking b+tts wanna stop and stare
as this new phenomenon that popped out of nowhere
decked in garb o’ honed to perfection or at least d+mn well near
lighting up airbnbs, giving cabmen cheer
one week in southern africa already feels like two
fit the job more than hand & glove or paper & white glue
getting high off sniffing stationary
it’s crystal clear week month & year
the star they were waiting on was you
hook
baby you fine die
bone i say you fine die
if you like vex you still fine die
your mind figure 8 sef
e fine die
baby you fine die
bone i say you fine die
if you like vex you still fine die
your mind figure 8 sef
e fine die
verse 2
cuddling you, we’re intertwined in a
“can’t tell where my body ends and yours starts” kinda way…
nestling one palm to cup both your cheek and neck
no worries goes anywhere my limbs travel they visit with respect
so the other alternates between massaging your scalp
and ever so gently rocking your back…
sleep easy, frauline a…sleep calm…
let my words be to you a soothing balm
let my hands bring you quiet and tranquil
let my breathing bring your tossing to a standstill
let the heaving of my chest be your rocking chair
as my fingers massage your scalp through tousled self+weaved hair
flying through the night as blissful rest envelopes everything
so you can wake up in adis to ride your second wind
cramped in economy but i swear it couldn’t be doper
less sp+ce just means i have to hold you even closer
hook
baby you fine die
bone i say you fine die
if you like vex you still fine die
your mind figure 8 sef
e fine die
baby you fine die
bone i say you fine die
if you like vex you still fine die
your mind figure 8 sef
e fine die
poetry
some women need their beauty sleep
you’re not one of them
some feel the need to be control freaks
you’re already at the helm
some are afraid to branch out
you’re a vine and an elm
some are a class apart
you’re in a whole ‘nother realm
some are as articulate as can be
but when they meet you they say “ehm…”
cos while they just wear precious stones
you my amazing one are a self+discovered gem.
you see yourself as a scam; i see a visionary
pity our country prefers a legionary
of sycophants, paedophiles & kleptos to hold power
‘else the government would be recruiting you right this hour
but then again the system of the world’s designed to encourage failure
you stand stoutly against it, so i stand and hail ya
i love you and i miss you let’s at least get to talk
and be close again just so i can watch you soar higher than hawks
and eagles
your looks are k!ller but your thoughts are by far the deadlier weapon
you’re a figure 8 lying down—infinite perfection
