lyrics

Woman In The Shadow

Written By Le Nomad and Malik I.M. aka Sun Toucha I for © ZionHorizon Music Publishing SOCAN

Intro (Sun Toucha)

You're now listening to Zion Radio 77.7 FM/Tuning up your future with every twist of the dial/Woman in the Shadow, Ah Ha!!

Chorus

Woman in the shadow
With the aura of Oshun
Saying sweet whispers
In the ears of the moon

Woman in the shadow
With the aura of Oshun
Sistah in Yellow
Taking me to the Moon

Woman in the Shadow
The Sistah in Yellow
A vision so mellow
She’s no cartoon
Woman In The Shadow
With the aura of Oshun
ASE! ASE!

Verse 1 (Le Nomad)

Her swag/Her glance/Her stance/Stature/Her yellow dress/She rocks with allure/There's sweetness in her features/See honey in the future/In her beauty is the rapture/In her beauty I get captured/Then I try to catch her/Then I try to get her/Thinking she was the hunted/But really she's the hunter/The woman in the shadow/Sometimes makes me wonder/Do I really need her? Do I really want her?

Chorus

Woman in the shadow
With the aura of Oshun
Saying sweet whispers
In the ears of the moon

Woman in the shadow
With the aura of Oshun
Sistah in Yellow
Taking me to the Moon

Woman in the Shadow
The Sistah in Yellow
A vision so mellow
She’s no cartoon
Woman In The Shadow
With the aura of Oshun
ASE! ASE! AYIBOBO! (Repeat chorus 2x)

Verse 2 (Sun Toucha)

Woman so fine
Divine intuition
The woman in the shadow
Conversing with the riddim
Dance with the riddim
Her hips first to follow
Root chakra energized
Body’s a Bailey’s Bottle
Outer beauty
Never shallow
Sometimes in peril
Here to save the day
Sun Touch
The Fly Heru

Never been a slave
Unless I runaway
Her shadow starts to dance
As the music starts to play
She's I-cient in the Face (repeat 3x)
Regal with Grace
Sweetness in Yellow
Now can I get a Taste? A wine off dat waist
A bubble that won’t burst
Planting sweet memories that can’t be erased
Her sensual pace
Vibrations start speaking
The windows to her soul
Open up
And I leap in
A daughter of the dust
Building that trust
Now it's TGIF
On every single weekend

Time to make 20/20 decisions
The woman in the shadow
Giving me night visions
The woman multiplies vibes
And subtracts divisions.

Chorus

Woman in the shadow
With the aura of Oshun
Saying sweet whispers
In the ears of the moon

Woman in the shadow
With the aura of Oshun
Sistah in Yellow
Taking me to the Moon

Woman in the Shadow
The Sistah in Yellow
A vision so mellow
She’s no cartoon
Woman In The Shadow
With the aura of Oshun
ASE! ASE! AYIBOBO!

Outro.
