The Root D'Angelo

[Intro]
(Talk to y'all, tell you a story, namsayin?)
(One, two, three, four)

[Verse 1]
She done worked a root, ooh-ooh
Done worked a root that will not be reversed
Yeah, no
Then I'll go on, go on
Go on my role in her play with no rehearsal, yeah

[Verse 2]
Said I left my mojo (Mojo)
Left my mojo in my favorite suit, huh
Yes I did, yeah
She left a stain
Left a dirty stain in my heart I can't refute
No, I can't, no, I can't

[Chorus]
She done worked a root, mm-mm
In the name of love and war (In the name of love) took my shield and sword (And sword)
From the pit of the bottom (Bottom), that knows no floor (Oh-oh-oh)
Like the rain to the dirt (Ah), from the vine to the wine (From the vine to the wine)
From the Alpha creation (Oh), 'til the end all time
Yeah, 'til the end of all time
