CHORUS: She had me like, she had me like (oh) seduction / (no) she had me like, she had me on the verge of destruction / (2X)

VERSE 1: It all began when my life hit the page, so the outcome was determined, long before this age as we know it / destiny, in rhymes I engaged, speak the wisdom of Christ, use the mic like a sage / step off stage, I'm humble, this young rap minister, was bout to get approached by this young black sinister / female, oh this was not the average sister, something bout the way she moved, you just couldn't miss her / she stood like an angel of passion, so distinct was her beauty, she was fashioned like the second rib of Adam / handcrafted to perfection, and I inquired, who could this be, she said her name was desire, and came to fulfill mine, touched me deep as feelings / she knew my heart was broken and she came to be my healing / she was so appealing, bits of honey dripped soft full lips, then she turned and walked shaking her hips like.. /

VERSE 2: Now it's been about two weeks, since I met her / I never saw her since to be safe, I thought it better / never wrote a letter, but I kept thinking bout this stranger, I hesitated to dial the number, could be danger / she was so mysterious, she came and offered me her bait but then left, before I even had a chance to partake / but wait, I hear a bell, someone's at the front gate / oh great, it's desire, but Shiz concentrate / keep your focus, don't lose it over this Pocahontas, but the fox is already tasting, sweet sultanas / she looked to smile as if she was casting a spell, I thought I'd keep it outside, but then a couple drops fell / it started raining, so I opened up the door and for sure, she wiped her feet on the mat and came in / I tried explaining, I don't usually (shh don't speak) she put her index on my lips, moved in, and kissed my cheek, in a sultry manner / I prayed divine intervention, cause the next couple of seconds experienced heightened tensions / I had good intentions, but she's tempting and it's just so hard / she's standing half naked now I'm screaming oh God.. /

VERSE 3: I'm kinda feeling like David, when he saw Bathsheba taking that bath and he thought he couldn't leave her / being overcome by the sweetness, I had to blame it, it's a direct result of her forthcoming sweetness / she smelled like sugar-coated, cinnamon rose in the morning, hot treat fresh out the oven / she came closer, but I just couldn't defile her, I was constantly reminded of the Philistine Delilah / so brazen, out of her mouth flowed succulent words, but if I heard, I'd be so shaven / I'd be so taken, with all the strength snatched out of my life, but I remembered when Potiphar's wife / came to Joseph, seductively, but the youth overcame, I was encouraged just to do the same / put your clothes back on girl, I'm trying to see, in the name of Jesus I rebuke you, rise and flee /
