[Part I: Please Set Me at Ease]

[Intro: Bobbi Humphrey sample & M.E.D.]

"How will I know this is real?

Usually I end up..."

"Foolishly, I end up..." (Yeah, uh)

"Giving all the love I own" (Yeah)


[Verse: M.E.D.]

I'm in a maze, 'cause I ain't seen you in a long time

Chocolate skin, thick thighs, innocent eyes

You used to be mines, with no commitment, you'd stay committed

Hate to laugh, but then I took you through it, I still admit it

But your shape developed, lookin' tighter than ever, we used to

Roll whatever, smoking blunts for escaping our issues

Remember when I first tried to hit it, you held back?

Now you smirking, 'cause you was flirting, you was all that

My rap finally cracked surface, the wait was worth it

After I hit it, knew I was perman' for late-working

Plus our sex secrets never hit the streets, none compete

Oral, sweet oil to spoil me, you was doing things

In the sexiest ways, I'm still amazed that you

Had my back to this day, for the wait, now I got you

Through the fire and rain, pleasure and pain

Change, the riches lost, some gains

Whether wife or mistress, we stay

Custom-fitted and wit' it

And I ain't hit it in a long time, 

So I'ma hit it for a long time

Alizé with Hennessy—you never fade wine (Uh)

We smoke weed and make money–that's my kind (Yeah)

[Outro: M.E.D. & Bobbi Humphrey]

(Yeah, yo...)

[Interlude: Bobbi Humphrey sample]

"Oh, please, won't you put me at ease?

I try inside, 

My feelings to hide

How will I know this is real?"

"Usually I end up–"

"Foolishly I end up

Giving all the love I own

And then to my dismay, to you

Was just another day

You won't even fall"

[Scratch break: MED & Wildchild samples]

"The-" "The-" "The capital M-E-D, the MC"

"M-E-D-A-P-H-O-A-R the M-C (Wutup – uh!)"

"Madlib—" "Mad—" "Mad—"

"Madlib's on the track—" "track—" "track–"

"Track and on the cut"

"Madlib's on the track" "and on the cut"


[Part II: Outro]


[Instrumental: Ahmad Miller]


[Radio Drop: Steinski]

"Hey— ey— ey— ey— ey— ey— ey—"

"Hey, this is Steinski

And you're listening to Madlib's remix of the Blue Note catalog

Damn, that's a great job...

How come I don't get jobs like that?"
