Lyrics/Song Structure:
---> Play Intro (x4)
---> Play Riff 1 over:
You know patience pushing 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 wearing
---> Play Riff 2 over:
I'd take that thing and with my knive I'd start pairing so
---> Play Riff 1 over:
Chop chop piece piece and send it to the raiders of LA
---> Play Riff 2 over:
There are so many this land of plenty
---> Play Riff 1 over:
The things we lack straight square within our grasp
---> Play Chorus - A over:
Ever you do ever you think
Whether you're brown or you're pink
I think not thinkings better bout it
When you stop to think
The jaded ones will wither
While the optimistic grow
I settle that a bet will let a large amount so
---> Play Chorus - B (x1)
---> Play Riff 1 over:
Indulge me just for a minute imagine no one holdin out
All trying for peace my brothers down
Some others down it happens slow
---> Play Riff 3 over:
Think you should know the direction that the world go peace
---> Play Riff 1 over:
They number six to make them feel like men
They one up us cuz we're much to much for them
OK the method to the mischeifs over there then
Sike shazam we strike with the lightnin'
---> Play Riff 2 over:
Through space we move and emit an ill tracer
---> Play Riff 1 over:
We're set to light your world kid we're your maker
---> Play Riff 2 over:
Check it our karma plus the avant garder
---> Play Riff 1 over:
Style of out sect wise to ways comes to wreck
---> Play Chorus - A over:
__/SA: While the masses mill around curse in anguish
\Nick: Ever you do ever you think whether your black or your pink
__/SA: 311 stompin' em down with the quickness
\Nick: I think not thinkings better bout it when you stop to think
__/SA: We see all the crews that be comin' around
\Nick: The jaded ones will wither while the optomistic grow
SA+Nick: Makin they notes to get the sweet-ass style down
---> Play Bridge
---> Play Riff 1 over:
Fending off the foes that try to shut us down
Like the warrior souls we are we never give in
So what you call is dope, we know will come round
---> Play Riff 3 over:
Chill in Southern 'Cali y'all that's how we're livin'
---> Play Riff 4a over:
We spend our lifes learning life is large
It could never be only the ups and the downs will always come around
---> Play Riff 4b (x1)
---> Play Riff 4c over:
Like a drive through Estes park you savor the sun
But when the clouds come make animals
---> Play Ending (x1)
