Missing Pieces: Takeem Fanfiction

Chapter 13: Love Me

Monday At Empire...................

Devon: They say that I'm reaching for the stars, I know
I won't let this diamond get away from me
I just wanna be right where you are even
If it's in a whole other galaxy

Tiana: Can't focus focus
You're all I need
My purpose purpose
My ecstasy
I won't come down (No)
Imma stay up here for now
And keep you on my mind cuz

Both: When I'm without you
Thinking about you
When I'm not around you
I want you closer
Thinking about you
I feel your heart too
Out in the open
Full exposure
Glad that I found you
Can't be without you
When I'm not around you
I want you closer
Thinking about you
I feel your heart too
Out in the open
Full exposure

Tiana: (takes off headphones) Can you cut? (Engineer thumbs up) Thanks.

Devon: (takes off headphones) What's wrong.

Tiana: Nothing. It just doesn't sound right.

Devon: I thought it sounded good.

Tiana: Yeah, but it's missing something. Can you play it back? (Engineer thumbs up and play back the track) See. Think we should do some ad libs or one us finish the end of the lyric.

Devon: Okay we can try it.

Tiana: Okay. Start the music from the top.

Devon & Tiana: They say that I'm reaching for the stars, I know
I won't let this diamond get away from me
I just wanna be right where you are even
If it's in a whole other galaxy

Devon: Cut for a minute. Playback. (They listen to the play back) (smiles) Yeah let's do it like that.

Tiana: Alright from the top again.

Another Studio....................

Hakeem: See I get off of the dock
And walk right onto the block
Its 2 o'clock call the flock
Tell 'em its time for the drop
Look at the time on my watch
I think its time I should stop
Probably should build an empire
Until they calling me hot
I gotta get back
Writing a whole lot of records
I probably should spit facts
I'm out of the gutter if they cutting butter
I'm with that (woo)
You know where to find me
I'll be with the currency
I get stacks

Luscious: The boy about to make his big comeback.

Cookie: (playing with the soundboard) He is. Come on baby.

Hakeem: Bring the cash in the place
I just wanna live like Cassius Clay
Be the champ living so lavishly (Empire)
Cos who the hell wants to be average
When you got ingredients to pass that (Woo)
(Buck Buck) I know (Know)
There's no question
We be flexing (Lets go)
Got dough (Dough)
We be starting
Ain't no talking
Oh

We ain't gotta say it but we got it (We got it)
No
Don't gotta display it but we got it (We got it)
I know (Know)
There's no question we be flexing

We out here building empire
You know we do it
Lets go
(Woo)

Cookie: (stops the music) That was good baby!
