Name: Mary Jane
Duration: P00H03M11S
Description: Funny story, Hetty's cousin was in town from CA. Knowing she would kill it on vox we asked her to swing by the apartment. She nailed these verses in like 1 or 2 takes. Later she would laugh about how she had no idea at the time about the dual meaning of the title and lyrics...she just thought it was a song about a girl named Mary Jane.

lyrics

Verse 1:
Dear Mary Jane where do I begin
Girl you're responsible for me witnessin' life as miracle on top of obstacle
Feelin' you despite the numbers of brothers I've watched you do
Me poppin your seed (should) symbolize the love I got for you
No mistakes about it I've been hot for you
You flipped it and let me pimp it like a prostitute, how could I part from you
What we got is too real and so I continued to cop you booh
Ironically the reason I never forgot my youth, see Mary I'm remindin' you
We flirted in '92, to you credit is due cause I just deserted the Heine' brew (Heineken)
And I knew since the first and fateful rendezvous, regardless of consequence
or what the test of time would do, I'd be true
Even writin' this rhyme I reclined and blew
Sacrificing tight structure for passion, that's when you actually find the truth
And hey, (if) you don't like it, sue
I'm scribin' my mami chu', she was comin' by when I was through
Now it's time I honor you,
Dear Mary Jane I can explain

Chorus:
Mary Jane, I use you for the pain
Don't get me wrong, I sing this song to praise your name
Through the sun or the rain
Mary Jane, I can explain how I feel
Please understand I will take your hand, it'll make us stronger

Verse 2:
So many nights of powerful bonding I contemplate
If I never found you in my life how would I operate
You see I could've weighed the pros and cons and got this out the way some time ago
I just stumbled on some kind of 'Dro, wasn't time to go
See I thought the highest I could go was off your chocolate kiss
And your Jiggin' in jars, throwing your partners in hyper fits
Now I'm proud to announce, I'm enticed by this
Rediscovering the fun and love of it, cypher until you bite my lip and even then
still try to re-light the clip, I'm convinced that I'm addicted to enlightening, high and insightful bliss
When I'm low, I load you up inside to my microchip and double click the 5 finger forgivin' plant
Click and drag
Say goodbye to the stressful present, and the forbidden past
Takin' peace of mind over misery and the chick is bad
Ever find something you're not supposed to have?
And you get so attached, with no intention to give it back, this is that
Dear Mary Jane I can explain

Chorus (Repeat)
