Whats On Your Mind Lyrics by Eric B. & Rakim

Whats On Your Mind Lyrics

    I seen her in the subway, on my way to brooklyn
    Hello, good looking, is this seat tooken
    On the a-train, picking at her brain
    I couldn't get her number, i couldn't get her name
    I said i still like your style of fashion
    But i hate your hostile, 'itty attitude wit a passion
    Is it because brothers like to hawk alot
    Is it because your sign don't talk alot
    She turned away, no play, i said ok
    You don't really look good, i hope you have a bad day
    Sat back, relaxed though the ride was tight
    I was thinking of the rhymes i wrote last night
    Next stop was mine, a familar scene
    I was meeting my friend, killer ben in ft green
    Where the girls are real, they tell ya how they feel
    If you're soft, you're soft, or if you're hard like steel
    See i don't bend and i won't rust
    And i don't break and i won't bust
    Stomped up the street and did i hear a treat?
    Hard high heels tappin' on the concrete
    I took a peek, it was the girl from the train behind me
    Did she live in the area, was she trying to find me?
    Hm, i didn't wanna play myself out
    I played it off, stopped and i bought a guiness stout
    Now was she shy, she didn't walk by
    She came in the store then she even said hi
    Curiosity- at a high velocity
    Maybe possibly she had the hots for me
    I said if we're playing games then we're gonna play mine
    I'm a lay the rules 'cause it ain't much time
    If you hide your feelings, and they hard to find,
    I wanna know what's on your mind

    Chorus

    About a week went by and i called her, "hello"
    I said yo, can i speak to, um, she said no
    Hey yo, i know i didn't call, i didn't wanna stress you
    Go out my way to impress you, press to undress you
    See i wanna get to know you so i can show you
    What a strong relationship can grow to
    But you gotta trust me and you're gonna love me
    Squeeze the phone and hug me, use your mind to rub me
    Now how does it feel when my mental, massage ya temple
    Telephone's hot from the vibes that i sent you
    Now tell me your inner thoughts and deepest emotions
    Next you see ectacy's explosions
    Now i'm coming to see you to spend some time
    I'm a romantic warrior but is it a crime
    And if you hide your feelings and they hard to find...

    I wanna know what's on your mind
    I wanna know what's on your mind

    Now it's been months and it's smooth and lovely
    I'm in your head so you'll be thinking of me
    So we met in queens and went to valley streams
    And, uh, couldn't remember the movie we just seen
    But it's wednesday, take the train uptown
    How do the 125th street sound

    Amateur night, showtime at the apollo
    Probably be watching bill cosby tomorrow
    Then after that get into it, i mean intimate
    Every word is an instrument
    Making sounds and tones and songs and moans
    My lips so close to your ear, it's like headphones
    You smile, you said you never know what the day will bring
    It's always a new song to sing
    The next day i went back to the her rest
    Knocked on the door, intentions: finesse
    She let me in and had nothing but a neglige on
    Smelling like liz claiborne
    I sat down and got comfortable and watched the huxtables
    She sat next to me and said what's up wit you
    I got the feeling for sexual healing
    A mental healing ; how you feeling
    She caught the effect and said she feel the same
    Could you massage my intellect and stop the pain
    Desire's yearning, the fire's burning
    You hot 'cause it's alot you're learning
    Now i'm ready to explore you inner world
    It's take a long time cuz i'm just beginning, girl...
    Take it easy, cut off the tv
    Cut off the lights, use your mind to see me,
    Use your physical form if i'm hard to find
    'cause now i know what's on your mind...
    'cause now i know what's on your mind...
