LYRICS
作曲 : C. Hall for ELUCID/F. Porter for The Happiest Africans (SESAC)
She dropped a load on me before they closed the door
I be with nobody who know what's goin on inside
My father body swollen behind my eyes
I ain't cry for him in time to return solar
We on the ride forward, the reverse not workin'
Sometimes it collide, the black sky full of supernovas
The stars that died, no light
I'm still rootin' for us
Two foots in the soil
Rhymes force to conjoin us to the cosmic
Spliff burnin' like crude oil
Cool water drip like osmosis
I set the mood for ya
You know the vibes
Today I got time for it, run Forrest
Five on me like I'm Bob Horry for the tribe slime
Mob of mentality, stars falling out of the sky, Sly
He was a star. When I got him, he was a star. Sly told ya that everybody is a star. The only problem is, some people haven't been put in the dipper and poured back on the world
Woke up on the west coast for the first time of my life
Drove cross country, but I remember those flights
Genuflected when I heard the weed price
White boys with the weed pipes
Sunny days, sunny nights, mighty clouds and northern lights
I was always bright
So, no sooner than we touched down
I'm seeing how we could get home and be right
It's hard to live in the moment, but I guess I had a gift
[?] so potent, zonin' off bong rips
I painted houses all summer, they paid by the shift
My boss was an enterprisin' white kid
Eagle eyed everything you did
Shit gig, but I didn't quit
MJG and 8ball spittin' out the whip
Spliffs with keef at the tip
It felt sleepy at night, but I like that
Felt like you could relax
Like you could disappear
Like I wasn't surrounded by the past
Months passed and we goin' back
And in the back of my mind, the plan already hatched
The door panels already stashed
Illinois state trooper just waiting for time and space
To cross our path
It's daydreams that I love. Where you might be controlling some of the thoughts, the dream takes over, things are unraveling before you without order
Walkin' four corners of God's country
Group calesthenics and morning fog
Catskill views, cats still yawnin'
A few hundred miles from hot garbage and smog
'89 find Airmax 90 first run
Fresh lungs, sweet blood
Light bugs spark blackness
Back at the annex
Past bedtime, kissin', prayin' nobody catch us
Zap, baby powder homie sock if you fell asleep first
Pummel body, la dee da
Batteries added, vicious cycle
Hurt people, hurt people
Days of summer, carefree
Haven't found an equal
We all knew the Isleys before the Beatles
Red moon over the rec room
In direction of discovery
Idle time wonderin'
Thumbin' 70s Ebony mags
Drippin' red ICEE on the pages
Learned to swim in a pool where a boy drowned last year
Wax in my ear
I heard voices I couldn't make out in the deep end
When I dipped my head under
Come again?
Burrs stuck to my socks
Pinch every few steps on the way to the graveyard
Old man Cropsey's hand in my foot locker
