Lyrics

Infamous, it don't stop (Mm-ohh)
 Yeah, yeah, infamous, knock 'em out the box, yo (Oh-oh)
 ♪
 I got you stuck off the realness (Oh, oh, oh)
 Infamous, knock 'em out the box (Oh, oh, oh)
 I got you stuck off the realness (Yeah, ooh)
 It wasn't raining yet (Yet), but it was definitely (It was definitely)
 A little misty on that warm November night
 And my heart was pounding (Pounding), my inner voice resounding (Come on)
 Begging me to turn away, but I just had to see your face to feel alive
 And then you casually walked in the room (In the room)
 And I was twisted in the web of my desire (And I was twisted)
 My apprehension blew away, I only wanted you
 To taste my sadness as you kissed me in the dark
 Every time I feel the need
 I envision you caressing me
 And go back in time to relive the splendor of you and I
 On the rooftop that rainy night
 
 And so we finished the Moet and started feeling liberated
 And I surrendered as you took me in your arms (You took me in your arms)
 I was so caught in the moment, couldn't bear to let you go yet
 So I threw caution to the wind and started listening to my longing heart
 And then you softly pressed your lips to mine
 And feelings surfaced I'd suppressed for such a long, long time (And I was lifted)
 And for a while I forgot the sorrow and pain
 And melted with you as we stood there in the rain
 Every time I feel the need
 I envision you (Envision you) caressing me (Caressing me)
 And go back in time to relive the splendor of you and I
 On the rooftop that rainy night
 Last night (Last night) I dreamed that I (Dreamed that I)
 Whispered the words "I love you" (That I love you, boy)
 And touched you so very subtly
 As we were kissing goodbye (Infamous rocks the box)
 I got you stuck off the realness
 Feel this pourin' down on your buildings
 The rain about to fall, I score up in the project hall
 Third floor, grab a taste on the staircase
 As we embrace, strictly lye without the raw base
 Me and my ol' dog blowin' out the smokes fog
 But overall, you the one that's like my pistol, I see it crystal
 Keep you on my side, you official (Yo, yo, yo, yo)
 Ain't it ill how we click, boo? Me and you
 Got me stuck off the realness, just me and you
 Up on the roofpiece, Pebble Beach
 Talk to me anytime, even when I'm with my peeps
 Roll a L while you smell like the perfume Chanel
 Push big Jeeps, rap it, Noyd, simply hit me
 We can do it on a rooftop, do it 'til we both drop
 M-O-B-B with Mariah sounds so hot (Every time)
 Every time (Every time) I feel the need
 I envision you (Envision you) caressing me (Caressing me)
 And go back in time (Oh) to relive the splendor of you and I (It was oh, so sweet, you and I)
 On the rooftop that rainy night (On that rainy night)
 Every time I feel the need (Last night I had a dream, I just dreamed)
 I envision you caressing me (It was actually quite symbolic)
 And go back in time (As I whispered) to relive the splendor of you and I (That I loved you, very subtly)
 On the rooftop that rainy night
