Appletree Erykah Badu

[Intro]
I'd like to dedicate this to all of the Creator's righteous children
I have some food in my bag for you
Not that edible food, the food you eat?
No, I have some food for thought
Since knowledge is infinite
It has infinitely fell on me, so um

[Verse 1]
It was a stormy night
You know, the kind where the lightnin' strikes
And I was hangin' out with some of my artsy friends
Ooh, wee ooh, wee ooh
The night was long, the night went on
People coolin' out until the break of dawn
Incense was burnin' so I'm feelin' right, aight

[Pre-Chorus]
See, I picks my friends like I pick my fruit
My granny told me that when I was only a youth
I don't walk around tryin' to be what I'm not
I don't waste my time tryin' to get what you got
I work at pleasin' me 'cause I can't please you
And that's why I do what I do
My soul flies free like a willow tree
Doo wee, doo wee, doo wee
