This is happening, this here is life
days spent pondering, truth is a knife
respect due to those who have caught it
dedicated to our friends who have sought it

This is happening, this here is life
days spent pondering, truth is a knife
respect due to those who have caught it
dedicated to our friends who have sought it

Brainstorm superseding the norm
when we come together, new planet is born

Head rush
come on, we take the stage
and what's up, it's on
this is a blow up
so just listen up
just take your mouth off interrupt
we came to throw down
it's a showdown
and you know why, we never lie
get the lowdown son
we're mashin and bashin
the stage we're crashin
if you're on the roof
I know you're dancin
I bet we get the people jumpin overseas
and I know why you're bustin mp3's

He was a king 'til she laid waste
now he can not fill up the space
and I just see him drifting
while he's drifting
on bourbon alley, feeling low
just because she let him go
I don't think he even knows
he'll ever be fine

And he's got a head full of ideas
let me tell ya, that you wouldn't believe
and he's got a heart made of pure gold
and something else, many tricks up his sleeve

Yeah, uh-hu, unh
awww shit
what, unh
you know the freaks can't handle it
we keep on searching from the seaside
to the mountainside, come on
hardly outstyled and hardly outblazened
nectar natural, completely amazing
others more concerned with just fronting on hardness
I flow sweet with millennium niceness
I don't know if they're just scared or what

From chaos comes clarity, I tell ya
what you appear to be, you ought to know
glycerin tears don't fool me, I tell ya
delusions plaguing everybody

Makin that hybrid music back in '90 now it's on ya
I hear we we're the model for the bad you front, we spawned ya
finding it hard to come original, we warned ya
we're shakin the white boys in New York, black girls in California

Picked up on the wrong scent
not gonna make a dent
how many times
are you in my rhymes
burn me once shame on thee
but burn me again, shame on me
I'm chasing and facing the point misplacing
when I think of you my mind's racing
I'm spacing out when I get to the point
of no return, I get burned
I told myself I'm through with you
the last thing that I'll ever do

I will never understand you
when will I stop trying
I mean, cuz it's just not how I planned to
spend my time til' dying

I mean, champagne
California on the brain
she's got an appetite for no refrains
just verses, she curses as blood vessels burst in defiance
she made an alliance to the dark side of Hollywood
where everything looks good
so I treat her right as any other player would

I can't free myself of the suspicion
for your motives on your mission
some people live for the rules
I live for exceptions
can't take part in the deception
but I know just how it feels
to wanna blow the world away
just to get to what is real
it won't work cuz
everybody grinds to a halt now and then
everybody's game gets salt then again
no matter what the papers say, they're normal as they come

Wake your mind up, clear your eyes up
move and rise up before your times up
clock is ticking, your caught slippin'
stop to realize, look and listen

Well I guess that's life
when you see a dark road up the way
and I guess that's life
when you gotta roll through anyway
now don't scream, don't fight
fear never ever made it go away
same ghost town as yesterday
made you feel like love was miles away

Brainstorm
take me away from the norm
I got to tell you something
this phenomenon
I had to put it in a song
and it goes like

Whoa, amber is the color of your energy
whoa, shades of gold displayed naturally
you ought to know what brings me here
you glide through my head blind to fear
and I know why
whoa, amber is the color of your energy
whoa, shades of gold displayed naturally

Uncalm, uncalm, uncalm
listen to the drummer, just listen to the strings
listen to the DJ just rappin' and things
once I get a message from you, I get all edgy
my minds racing but you know I'm not ready, uh, I say
for you, baby all our dreams trickle through
we are back in your teenage bedroom
Salvador Dali honeymoon, for you

It's like you and me on Plymouth Rock

I'll be here awhile, ain't going nowhere

I'll be here awhile, ain't going nowhere

I'll be here awhile, ain't going nowhere

I'll be here awhile

Far S.O.S. in a maddening pace

Sad state written on my face

Not a tight rope walk but dance

Uncertain game of chance

But I'll see it through in time

I'll be here awhile, ain't going nowhere

Now look out
Whatcha say

Its time to kick the basics
Flowing and knowing its in your faces
Sounds good were trading up places
When we fuck it daily I see something that sails me
From here to infinity it nails me
To the groove til the suckas improve
On there so called grooves
That a just dont move
A million ways to fuck it up and one to get it right
