Atmosphere - "The Woman With Tatooed Hands" - Great Read

Atmosphere - "The Woman With The Tattooed Hands"

I used to know this woman who had the most beautiful

tattooes on the top sides of both of her hands

She was forty-three years old and as far as I know

had never yet been with a man

It's not that she wasn't attractive;

she was beautiful, but it was the way that she interacted

She was aggresively passive to the point where she

would've intimidated any mitt that ever tried to catch it

on the right hand she had a tattoo of a nude girl

she claimed it is what God resembled

but on the left she had a mirrored image of the same female

and this one she explained looked like the devil

I remember once watching her touch her own breasts

how the tattooes smiled as they stared down her stomach

as if anticipating when they'd be allowed to caress

the sweet flower that they both seemed too hungry (sweet flower)

Now maybe I was high but it felt so right

heaven and hell both take to this woman's womb

It didn't make sense how she could commence

touching herself with me wide awake in the same room

but if I've learned anything in my years (my years)

I learned I no longer believe in surprise (in surprise)

but what happened next damn near stold my tears

the tattooes came alive right in front of my eyes

they both slowly stood up and climbed off her hands

and showed me why she never took some time with a man

they climbed deep inside of this woman's garden

she closed her eyes and she gently bit her bottom lip

I stepped I left and I don't regret leaving

and I'd never forget all the things I saw that evening

a glimpse of religion a piece of coming closer

to understanding more about what intrigues me most

I didn't get turned on I just got turned

I wasn't as aroused as I was concerned

for each one of 'em I've hurt

and every time I've been burned

I've got a lot to teach but even more to learn

so now I keep my eyes open hoping to take in all I can

about women taking in all she can

And for as long as I breathe I'll save receipt in my memory

for that woman with the tattooed hands

There's good and evil in each individual fire

Identifies needs and feeds our desire

As long as we keep our spirit inspired

She can bite her bottom lip all she wants

Good song.

IMHO one of the greatest if not the greatest song ever made. I just feel a real connection with it. Everything about it is amazing.

Just readin I can tell its Atmospheres with the suttle rhymin every-other line or so.

I don't get what u mean by backpack. If ur talking about "non-gansta rap", then yeah...its a different kinda shit...intellectually-stimulating, quality shit.

That was my favorite song in 8th grade. Its a good song.

He's a fucking weirdo, but he's got some good tracks.

"My life ain't as cool as your life, I'll most likely get stabbed in my sleep by your wife".

A bit fucked in the head or maybe just on mad drugs, but he's ok.

He isn't fucked in the head IMO. He's pretty fucking cool. Reminds me a lot of myself, except he's in his mid 30's lol. He's just a really smart sarcastic guy, with a few stories to tell.

atmosphere is the shit. one of my favorite songs ever.

slug's a brilliant rhymer, great song, cant wait for the new cd coming out, that means there'll be another big show at First Ave soon!

I just bought tickets today for his "everybody loves a clown tour" but i'm going to the show in LA.

that'll be cool, but there's really no better place to see slug than his beloved first ave right here in his home... everytime they're back home they fuckin tear the venue up.. it's a small venue too and everyone knows small venue shows are where it's at

God Loves Ugly was an awesome CD, I haven't heard much of his new stuff though.

doesn't he have a new cd comin out soon? something about clowns??
