Lyrics
Six
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You know patience pushin' a dream brings my demons to life
Songs are vacations, our soul salvation will you
Suspend your disbelief, I'd like to be the thief
That steals that jaded necklace that you're always wearin, Yo
I'd take that thing and with my knife I'd start pairing so
Chop, chop, piece, piece and send it to the Raiders of L.A.
There are so many this land of plenty
The things we lack straight square within our grasp
Ever you do, ever you think
Whether you're brown or you're pink
I think not thinkin' better 'bout it
When you start to think
The jaded ones will wither
While the optimistic grow
I settle that a bet will let a large amount so
Indulge me just for a minute imagine no one holdin' out
All trying for peace, my brother's down
Some others down it happens slow
Think you should know the direction that the world go peace
They number six to make them feel like men
They one up us 'cuz we're much to much for them
Okay the method to the mischiefs over there then
Sike Shazam we strike with the lightnin'
Through space we move and emit an ill tracer
We're set to light your world kid, we're your maker
Check it our karma plus the avant garde
Style of our sect, wise to ways, comes to wreck
(Ever you do ever you think)
(Whether you're brown or you're pink)
While the masses mill around curse in anguish
(I think not thinkings better bout it)
(When you stop to think)
311 stompin' em down with the quickness
(The jaded ones will wither)
(While the optimistic grow)
We see all the crews that be comin' around now
(I settle that a bet will let a large amount)
Takin' they notes to get our sweet ass style down
(Sweet ass style down)
Fending off the foes that try to shut us down
Like the warrior souls we are we never give in
What we call is dope we know will come around
Chill in Southern Cali y'all, that's how we livin'
We spend our lives learning
If you like learning, life is large
It could never be only the ups
The downs will always come around, yea, yea
Like a drive through Estes Park you savor the sun
But when the clouds come make animals
