Lyrics
Nod your head to this, as a lot of apprentice
Nod along to this, acknowledging the expertise of some learners
Some of this were standing on the shoulder of giants
Some individuals benefit from the knowledge of those who came before
Some tyrants, some benevolent
There are both oppressive rulers and compassionate leaders
To the followers, it's relevant
For followers, this information is significant
The rest get bent on lending opinions
Others strongly advocate their opinions
I'm sending to a brand new level
Elevating things to a new level
I revel in completion, I like to see deletion
I enjoy finishing things and removing unnecessary elements
Of the parasites to make the load light
Removing parasitic influences to lighten the load
Fools know rules, but the rest keep bouncing back
Some people abide by rules, but others keep rebounding
With the lack of further adieu, see
Without further delay or ceremony
As one can deduce, we kick out the jams
We energetically start performing music
Slam the s*** out hard and long
We perform vigorously and passionately
'Cause we got more song, dig it, check it
Because we have more to offer, understand and examine it
Something you might like now
Here's something you might enjoy now
All-star bound
Heading toward being exceptional
Yeah, you're so sound
You're very impressive
Cool as the blue water all around
Calm and collected like serene waters
From a force field flashing
There's a powerful energy emitting
Aliens are sending
Possibly suggesting an extraterrestrial communication
Black evolutions of love you are hearing
You're experiencing profound evolutions of love
The dark supernatural is the world we call
The mystical and unexplained is the world we inhabit
Our own home lightning in the mind comes out in song
Our creativity and inspiration come out through music
But we're wild, they say, "never trust us, we're shady"
There's skepticism about trusting us, viewing us as untrustworthy
In lieu of the crew you're into, we are, baby
Compared to the group you're involved with, we're different
'Cause music will be coming out the words we speak
Our music reflects the words we speak
We erect break beats shatter, wax still on the platter
We create powerful rhythms and disrupt norms
Our s*** is badder, we come, fly, then we scatter
Our work is more intense and superior
'Cause we deep and we solid, yeah, we hear ya holler
We're profound and unified, acknowledging your enthusiasm
Electricity running through is all that feels good
Electricity coursing through us is what truly feels great
Sometimes the only thing that really ever could
Sometimes, that's the only thing that satisfies
Feed, that hunger, I crave it
That hunger for stimulation, I desire it intensely
I love it, I gave it
I cherish and give myself to it wholeheartedly
I shove it in a battery and save it for later
I store that energy for later use
A waiter in the Dorothy C. Pavilion in '89
A memory from a specific place and time, encountering unconventional individuals
I met some weirdoes and had myself a real good time
I had an enjoyable experience in a particular location
Downtown L.A. is a soul graveyard
A place where toughness is required, lacking something essential
Where you got to be hard or get jacked
You need to be tough or be taken advantage of
It lacked a certain sense of something
There's something missing in that environment
Something basic, no karma in he least I broke east
Basic decency seems absent, I headed east and had to confront it
You know I had to face it
I had to confront and accept it
I guess I flaked but it was no mistake because 311's got the boom
I might have avoided responsibility, but it was intentional as our music has a significant impact
My mike check is giving me Electric Company
Testing my microphone gives me a sense of power
I can't see the high wide sky or stars above me
Feeling restricted, unable to see the vastness above
Are you a flower, or more like a high rise tower?If so, the soul of sweet delight on you will shower
Questioning the nature of someone—are they gentle or towering?
There's a place for us they say is somewhere
There's a place where we supposedly belong
Not a dream, but a place and you will be there
It's not merely a dream but an actual location
You're slippin', but content because your spirit And hills are alive, with the sound of music People never see the whole trip of life
Despite feeling uncertain, one's spirit finds contentment, referencing a musical reference to life's journey
Grab knowledge, man, and all you do is syph
Seek knowledge, as
