Lyrics
Chorus (Chico Torres)
shes gold, good for my soul
i want my mahogany (repeat 2x's)
...thats my mahogany gold
Verse1 (Ronnie Los)
i gotta thing for black women, said I
i gotta thing for black women
not just them yellow boned
them delightfully dark skinneded
something with attitude that simply got my mind bendin
shit, i said what up tho'
lets politic, maybe i can go corrupt those
feelings that you had about the kid
let me go ahead and put my name against ya lips
gotta be hard to feel beautiful these days
when all we care about is what the media displays
like baby got back she shake it boomin
the way ya melanin shine is simply soothin
the way you move is like that henny with the apple juice
and when you whisper in my ear baby that'll do
smarter than the average and im proud of you
so you can take the wheel and we can push it through
Chorus (Chico Torres)
shes gold, good for my soul
i want my mahogany (repeat 2x's)
...thats my mahogany gold
i like the way our minds connect
i can tell ya heart is filled with mad neglect
treat like your randoms what these random men will do
lookin through your worth and put your body on a pedastal
but seein my mind and your mind is entwined
you, solely divine hold me down on the grind
when shit gets hard for you im right there
yo we solid soles/souls like a fresh pair of NIKE AIRs
the way pheromones be mixing with that coco butter
make my hear st st st stutter
how i know there is no other
thats peace to your moms too
you can tell her what my rhymes make your mind do
the brown kid with his queen from leimert park
you be the light, ill be the spark
im on my common shit, let me hold you close
let me show you the sunset
while we cruisin through the coast
BRIDGE (chico torres)
under, on top of you, inside and all around
all around, all around
even the space in between your lips and mine im goin down, goin down
baby i cant really leave you i need you now
need you now, need you now
i really cant i iust need you to say my name
say my name say my name
Chorus (Chico Torres)
shes gold, good for my soul
i want my mahogany (repeat 2x's)
...thats my mahogany gold
