The Root Lyrics by D'angelo

The Root Lyrics

    one, two, three, four....

    She done worked a root.
    Done worked a root that will not be reversed
    Then i go on, go on my role in her play with no rehearsal
    Said, i left my mojo
    Left my mojo in my favorite suit...(yes i did, yeah)
    She left a stain, left a dirty stain in my heart, i can't refute.

    She done worked a root!

    (chorus)
    In the name of love and war took my shield and sword
    From the pit of the bottom, that knows no floor
    Like the rain to the dirt, from the vine to the wine.
    From the alpha to creation, to the end of all time.

    Said i went, said i went, said i went to the doctor.
    The man told me there ain't nothin' wrong with me
    But i beg to differ, i been feelin this pain for much too long
    I feel like my soul is empty
    My blood is cold and i can't feel my legs
    I need someone to hold me.
    Bring me back to life b4 i'm dead.

    She done worked a root...root...rooooot.

    (chorus)

    Adlibs

    I feel my soul is empty
    My blood is cold and i can't feel my legs,
    I need someone to hold me
    Bring me back to life before' i'm dead..

    She done worked a root.

    From the pit of the bottom, that knows no floor

    To the end of all time!!

    Like the rain to the dirt, from the vine to the wine.
    From the alpha to creation, to the end of all time!
