“Black Pearl” by Folasona Olorunsola, 2013

Chorus:
black pearl with the almond eyes, I wanna sing a song of joy and let you harmonize
black pearl with the almond eyes, I wanna sing a song of joy and let you harmonize

Verse 1:
I want you to want me like I want you
but I also want you to be free so gwaan do what you want to
I wanna know if you’re real or if you’re phoney,
I might be the one, so I know that you should get to know me
gotta holla when I see ya, this might be our only
chance, so take a chance don't be shy and walk off lonely
don't deny your opportunity now and end up guessing
"he was fine, would I have been feeling his essence?"
better find out, it's cool if you ain't feelin me boo,
cause there's only one of me, and a million of you
just playing I know you’re special, I ain't judging
but if your attitude is snotty you should know there's dimes in dozens
in every hood, in every country I go
some of them queens and some of them hoes
some motivated some don't have any goals
some is true to themselves some be playing a role
some of them wise and some of them dumber
some of them wives and some of them mothers
still the odds is in my favor cause it's all about numbers
but which one are you? that's just what I was wonder-ing
don't see no ring so if you’re single,
I wanna know what sparks your mind, and what makes your spine tingle
from your head to the tip of your toes
I know different positions, and different flows
I know lames be spitting game, but I'm different from those
if you knew what I had to offer you'd be with it for sho
if you’re worth more than dollars, I'll offer my time
if you thirst for the knowledge, I'll offer my mind
if you lust for the pleasure, I'll offer my body
it's my pleasure to give it to you, damn you a hottie
and if you truly a queen and we share the same goals,
later on down the road, might even offer my soul

Chorus:
black pearl with the almond eyes, I wanna sing a song of joy and let you harmonize
black pearl with the almond eyes, I wanna sing a song of joy and let you harmonize

Verse 2:
princess you wanna be a queen, then come with a king
damn you’re fly, but I could be the wind under your wings
uplift your mind and make your spine bend like wonderful beats
take you to new heights when our bodies blend under the sheets
I know you’ve been let down a few times in your life
but don't be scared to take a chance, try rolling the dice
like 7-11 all night I'll have you open
any time you can come-bust I'm giving you explosions
make you warm then make you hot, but it feel like time is frozen
while your sugar walls are melting getting wetter like they're flowing
come so many times you'll hope it's never time for going
my head ain't too big, but once I see your tail it's growing
you're making it hard for me to resist, the softness of your kiss
narrow waist and thickness of your hips
you've got me hypnotized by the power contained
within your lips, your eyes, your hourglass frame
I wanna flow through you, like the sands of time
so take this road with me, place your hands in mine

Chorus:
black pearl with the almond eyes, I wanna sing a song of joy and let you harmonize
black pearl with the almond eyes, I wanna sing a song of joy and let you harmonize

Verse 3:
Got discipline, style & passion
plus she got my back when it's time for action
baby got her own back, the size was catching
my eyes but the smile was the prize attraction, and
when I looked into her eyes is happened
like a gravitational field, our minds were trapped in
you know the look that instantaneously seduce ya
time froze as we traveled to the future
thinking about what could be, should be, will be
she said “I have some space in my life need you to fill me”
said I have some pain in my life need you to heal me
we can play Marvin all night long so you can feel me
plus I need a Night Nurse like Gregory
& you seem like, my perfect remedy
we both hope it might work so let it be
that the way you quench my thirst is heavenly

Chorus:
black pearl with the almond eyes, I wanna sing a song of joy and let you harmonize
black pearl with the almond eyes, I wanna sing a song of joy and let you harmonize

Verse 4:
when I first met you girl, you was feeling my height
now you’re feeling my length, I mean feeling my pipe
not only feeling my length, got you feeling my thickness
when I first met you, I was feeling your thickness
now I'm taking up space inside, filling your thickness
working you out well like diligent fitness
would sweat out your perm, but you’re all natural
born black and beautiful, you're all that for sure
got respect for yourself, and respect for me too
so making you feel good is my specialty boo (true)
like sipping sex on the beach, but we don't really drink
sun tans and white sand now we’re both on the brink
rising like the tide getting wetter and wetter
riding the pipeline surfing waves of infinite pleasure
til they break on the shoreline and we finish together
but we could swim back for more, when and wherever

Chorus:
black pearl with the almond eyes, I wanna sing a song of joy and let you harmonize
black pearl with the almond eyes, I wanna sing a song of joy and let you harmonize
black pearl with the almond eyes, I wanna sing a song of joy and let you harmonize
black pearl with the almond eyes…beautiful surprise
