Lyrics Soul Silhouette - Funky DL, M & EM

Soul Silhouette

You know we got to take control
When you’re dealing with the soul
You know we’ve got it going on
It’s so easy to see
That you want to get with me
You know we’ve got it going on yeah
Have you ever heard the expression soul on ice?
I guarantee you when it comes to girls it’s something real nice
Because I was straight lounging in this jazz store for records
Peeped this very fine lady and thought damn I have to check her
I had one eye on this honey the other in the jazz selection
Her skin was a kind of caramel toffee complexion
I thought that I was dreaming, slapped myself DL wake up
The type of girl, who looked so fine and didn’t put on make up
And I was bugged out;
I’ve never felt this way before
And by the time I calmed down she was leaving the store
Yeah she was going real quick yes a real fast walker
I didn’t want to follow her and make myself look like a stalker
But damn she had this innocence in her eyes
There ain’t no way I’m going to get her number if I don’t try
So I proceed out the store, check it I’m getting older
Ran up a few yards and gently tapped her on the shoulder
And as I went to speak not one word I could utter
Because my nose was hooked on this faint smell of coco butter
Her was slick back relaxed and mad straight
When I finally spoke I said hold up wait
Are you from around here?
What’s your name kid and where you going
Who are you with?
A couple of things I must be knowing
What’s those seven numbers you got but no I couldn’t sweat
Because this girl was so fine I called her Soul Silhouette
Her voice was cute and sounded sweet like a fruit
I hope she wasn’t the type that’s only out for loot
Because everything around me right now had now relevance
And when she spoke you could tell she spoke of intelligence
She got more soul than anybody I know
I can’t believe the way she looked and I was caught in her flow
Electrifying my soul, she said you fellow’s want to get with me
And even if you don’t you go around claiming you slept with me
I said you girl don’t even play me that way
And if you do not want to know me then honey that’s Ok
She kind of stopped me in my tracks because she knows the deal
Loved the way that I talked and the way it made her feel
Would have stopped in a second if those vibes were wack
And I could feel a little static with the eye contact
Hey yo I glanced at my watch then she asked me the time
I started checking in my pocket for that ill dope rhyme
That I was writing this morning for my brand new track
She took out her Parker pen and wrote her number on the back
Sometimes it’s hard to find a girl like this in your city
And even when she’s mad damn she still looks pretty
I had to check my DJ because he was in effect
She said she’s got to go, she said she’s got to jet
And as she said that hey yo she sparked a cigarette
Yo she was so fine I called her soul silhouette
