Lyrics Eric B. & Rakim

Eric B. & Rakim

Rest Assured

Double oh seven is back

Double oh seven is back

Double oh seven is back

I don't stress my day 'cause it's best to parlay

I guess you could say I've been away, I wake up slow when I'm hot

But I destruct the plant and fourteen hands comb New York for fans

They make waves as they wiggle in my waterbed

Pull back the leather covers and silk bedspread

A mornin' massage turnin' into a real rough rubdown

So I figured I'll lay around, they keep me wet with a juice called Tahiti

It make the room steamy, so soon they couldn't see me

They know more than calisthenics as they worked up a sweat

It wasn't even ten o'clock yet

Scrub down, then I get moist, they never treat me mean

They sweetly keep me squeaky clean, I chill as they filled the jacuzzi

I said, "I'm tight from a real long flight, could you soothe me?

Support my thoughts 'cause I got a lot of writing to do"

They said, "Cool" And just enjoyed the view

It ain't hard 'cause it's miles from the sidewalk

I'm overlookin' every borough in New York

The entire, Empire State to concentrate for every rhyme I make

So at exactly noon they played my favorite tune

And just before they all cleared the room

They said, "We're glad you're home from tour, now we feel secure

We wish you didn't have to leave no more"

But they wanna go to war, they even tried to shoot up the door

Double oh seven is back, rest assured

Double oh seven is back, feel secure

Double oh seven is back

I'm fillin' up the page when I'm steppin' on stage

Got the people in a rage with they hands in the air

Fellas sayin', "Hoe" Everybody yellin', "Go"

Fly ladies in the house all screamin', "Aww, yeah"

That's how they react when I attack the mic

In fact it's like a stack of dynamite, powerful and bright

Girls love to squeeze me real tight

Double oh seven is back

Ra has returned to romance 'em better than Johnny Handsome

When I was young, women said, "Damn, son"

Ain't nuthin' change but the year and I'm still here

C'mere dear, let me whisper in your ear

Hug my words so I can taste your lips, I set up hips like domino chips

But I don't let 'em hit the floor

And if you got sore, then feel secure, where's the pain

Is it the spot you set us in? Almost magic, better than medicine

Take one of these and put your mind at ease

I get more work than a lot of MD's if I'm hawkin New York

Or out on tour I express the raw dialect and explore

But don't get fooled by metaphor

Double oh seven is back, rest assured

Feel secure

Rest assured

Rest assured

Yo, feel secure
