Music
Welcome
Groove as your soul sings
Spinnin' all around as we dust a melody
Welcome to this groove you can move right
We gonna take you higher not caught in the quagmire
I can't survive on a stupid nine to five, I'd rather be poor
Writing tunes livin' on a commune
Kickin' it with my brothers and significant others
Life in pursuit of only money we think it's funny
The only thing that money it could ever bring to me
Would be some gifts for my friends follow me now
Trips for my family
The only thing I love is freedom the people around me I need 'em I'd
Like to build the world a spliff but like I said I said
You could never get me interested in dreams of wealth
Myself my birthday happens to land on April twelfth whack
A Coney Island of the mind it's mine
I swipe the sweets strip the beats in the sunshine
Loco holmes I stroll because I'm thinking
A tone poem alone is love medicine then the demon
Spring revolution in my spirit here it is and I will kill with it
Traveling head spinnin' from the medicine
Illusions fadin' out an comin' on again
Unwind your mind then find entire minutes
Abstract the tract of sight day breaking in it
Doles out my share of the world ocean and sun
Rising with whirling motion
I fought kicked and screamed my way to getting born now I feel warm
And I say come on the night won't save anyone
Won't you roam we've grown so we can write again
Our soul select its own way for the travellin'
We're here we're breathing and we wanna keep our blood running
So we're gonna keep gunning till the next homecoming
I like the boogie to the bang bang boogie say up jump the boogie
To the bang bang come on
Freak Out
Let the games begin if you wanna fuck with me
You can't disturb the course of P & C & T & D & me
I'm on a mission, to set straight
The vice, the curse, the date, the gate relate to this
I insist B it's weak to dis see I'm runna up so suckers stick to your 40
How could I give a damn, give a damn if you approve what it's about
I just freak out
Just guess ya'll c'mon come back slipped outta whack as the master
Laid out the music
Death I just say fuck you, the void unknown we're thrown through
While lost in life's psychedelic trip we take
There's another more bizarre we have to make
World we have nowhere beyond
Take out the earth the bass is gone
At life's end we'll feel the calm
How strange we should be here at all
If you don't have, someone to, do it with it's not worth doin'
To all my friends, it's not the end the earth has not swallowed me yet
Into whose womb were you woven what kin of your skin dropped you then
Bodies cloven
Light of daybreak blinded next exit
The wild darkness forming inside it
My day wasn't promised me each death
It brings reminding me we are rumbling
Through this cursed universe where death is birth
Think not but what your manifest is worth
Giving up a verse the curse occurs a thirst
To burst first breaking through the center of the universe
Slamming down on the lingo flow so jam to the bumrush single
Long ago has been become now when you find out
There's no break in the rhythm
Black anima makes my stamina stand alone
Disown the cinema farewell to posing decades dozin
Comin up the steps of the new screen rising scenes from the lost world shapes hard to tell
Which is which as if drawn by a child holmes
If you don't have, someone to, do it with it's not worth doin'
To all my friends, it's not the end the earth has not swallowed me yet
If you don't have, someone to, do it with it's not worth doin'
To all my friends, it's not the end the earth has not swallowed me yet
This is the heat to flush your face - (4x)
Freak Out
Visit
He wouldn't say he cared at all if you asked him
You're heading for a fall brother it goes right past him
In another world, he's in another place
You now the need for speed is just another form of greed
But when you jones'n your brains frozen.
You're not thinkin' bout the choices you makin'
You're just rollin' on and on
It's anybody's guess
Cuz no one's at the wheel at the front of that mess yes
The sun's goin' down for me it's goin' down for me
He and she are what I need yes they're what I need
But I'm gonna buy a ticket I'm not gonna even pick it
I heard it he said I heard it
But it we but it went something like
Visit
I wanna visit the world
So now I visit the world
With my time on this world
Because livin' when you're hungry is a dog in an alley
Now I mind my business cuz I'm rhymin' down in Cali
I ain't playin' when sayin' kings of the ghetto feel they losing ground
Vato's goin' loco because everyone's brought down
This is a visit then we dead fade to dust strickin'
I'm wearing my Doc Martens cuz I'm always down for kickin'
This my friend the city pity everywhere the enemy
Ready or not homey stompin' everyone in front of me
Jump up and down cus that's the 311 style
Cruise on by the frowners float follow me now with a smile
Looking at the ocean I say there's plenty
Looking at the river I say there's plenty
Visit
I wanna visit the world
So now I visit the world
With my time on this world
Jump up and down cuz that's the 311 style
Cruise on by the frowners float follow me now with a smile
I got a golden ticket I'm not gonna even pick it
I heard it he said it I heard it
But it went but it went something like
Visit
I wanna visit the world
So now I visit the world
With my time on this world
Visit
I wanna visit the world
So now I visit the world
With my time on this world
Paradise
Everything you do it comes back to you
Whatever it may be
If it isn't one thing rest assured that something
Will come back and pay you for your deed
A shortcut's a self defeating means, if you cannot do it clean
You'll never reach your reward
And when the day is done, what you receive is the sum
Of what you took out, from what you put in
Times deep in a dream seem a veiled realm
Shadows what I think and feel is real
Times in our tribe feel the tribe when we thrive
We have no fear of death and no fear of life
I can't forget you and our version of paradise
I can't forget you and our version of paradise
Everything you do it comes back to you, whatever it may be
What you did as a devil or did as an angel
The favor returns itself somehow
If you take my money I'll buy you a drink and you'll see
That no one rides for free
Afraid of what I said then your mind is stricken
I'm wearing my heart sleeveless and I'm always up for kickin'
This is my favorite city pity everywhere the enemy
From the beginning serious history
Nothing's ever given, no one rides for free
From the beginning radiant energy's
Music what I need to keep my sanity
I say we fear no evolution stand up musical revolution
Follow me now when I say we can never stop in we never give
Cuz this is how we breathe and live
Some of them whine and some of them bitch
They cannot do it we never switch
We do it for ourselves and we do it for you
If you don't like it well I hope you do
I've got to be honest - (4x)
I can't forget you and our version of paradise - (4x)
Unity
Even if I cared to try I couldn't please them
Their petty complaints, stupid restraints ain't gonna work
It's all to cheese and regret, don't fret, just push it away
And say I'm like the wind, relentless and irritating
A position that I think worth stating
Swing I'm doin' my thing
Groove I'm showin' and provin'
That maverick deal that makes you feel ill
It runs in my family
Fussin' and cussin' and bitchin' and kickin'
If you ask me I think that you're just chicken to try, don't pretend you're my friend
Remember I said it one day you'll regret it
Oh God I can't believe it
You have asked and so you shall receive it in the ear
Victory draws near but no fear my dear i'll be here another year that's right
What's it all about I scan a new plan for the next year
In nineties try these you wanna just bust out
I cool out and I'm done bein' mad to just know hate well that's so sad
What a life, strife, backfire and your face know your place come on like
Word, they come like a herd but they said
We'd drop like a lead zeppelin in your face
But that's nothin' home team I ain't got to my ace in the whole yet
Bet that I will get my fill, get my thrill
We'll be back one day and we'll try not to spite
But until then you stay out of my sight
Oh, God, I can't believe it this groove's so dope
I'm about to have a fit and here's a flash
I freaked so hard I got whiplash
And when it comes to writing stay away from our stash
Swing I'm doin' my thing
Groove I'm showin' and provin'
That maverick deal that makes you feel ill
It runs in our family
Stoppin' and goin' and lyin' and trying'
My brain is on fire it feels like I'm flying through space
Yes doing my best but it'll get better this much I confess
Oh God I can't believe it but when this era's through I'll say that's it
Edification will take place
Pull up the reigns and get out of the race
My bros are down for the Unity
311 is down for the Unity
Unanimity of the Unity
Hydroponic
Mother nature supreme step back and dream the hydroponic scene
Found around knocked out of bounds wound into the mind of my stone cloud
Taste the thinnest of oxygen rising higher a stoner cus I can groove something
Wrecking nothing to prove see that's in my nature
So fresh, the vital bud of the chronic tastes of something thicker
Everything I eat is from the Earth, right
I am what I eat straight up Earth, right
Nothing but a walking sack of Earth nice to meet you how do ya do
Guess what, ya you're one too
My skin holds me in my brain moves me then boom
I jump straight off the speaker in a form a celebration that we're moving
Freely disconnected I'm truly grateful I'm going back the Earth
I'm not gonna waste life being hateful
Kingdom coming through ya - (2x)
Jumpin' out my skin
The skin I'm in
And the hydroponics' on
Did it because we wanna toke up until it's gone an abstract notion
Here to connect me to the ocean
'Cause I'm water and carbon, and not much else, I felt compunction
Conjunction junction what's your function
I'll be hookin' ups verbs and nouns and phrases and clauses as to the causes
Of misery quizzically I look to my own book hooked on trying to fathom
The solar systems and atom in a larger molecule called a galaxy cool
The milky way is where I stay
Astronomy steppin' stompin' a pow wow I rock the mike and shake up the ground
And I'm a bust out like wild dandelions in fat bloom
I'm shooting through the cosmos because I loom
You know I'm higher I'm shining brighter yes yes
Like where water comes together with other water foamin'
Now I'm Homin', like a bird soarin' right to the mood
I'm a wildflower busting out I go boom
Kingdom coming through ya - (2x)
Jumpin' out my skin
The skin I'm in
And the hydroponics' on
My Stoney Baby
The fish who keeps on swimming
Is the first to chill upstream
I want your fish right by me
That's how it has to be
The songs I sing they don't mean a thing if you're not there to hear it
But then soon is the time you'll be by my side
It's copesetic if you let it so set up and keep the down stream down and up stream up
Girlfriend boots & all you lookin' fresh again
Move toward me so I can smell the sweetness of your flesh dam
Cool down your fine self when I find my way to the wetness of your sweet mouth
Sweetly in every way that you treat me
A fish story but you know it's picture perfect
Our morning glory every time that we wake
The morning ride is the longest ride take it
Like this take it like that take a yin and a yang
It's time to find the kind
Like my man jack sprat to do down forever it's wetter
Titillate the flow
Can't say it any better
Swimmin' and hummin' with a body and soul
It's time to find the kind titillate the flow
Swimmin' and hummin'
Can't say it any better
My Stoney Baby
My Stoney Baby
And now I'm in here with my friend ruskie
In their house but they're not home
If they find out what's been on
They'll kick us out and we'll be gone
No pool and that's not too cool
The songs I sing they don't mean a thing if you're not there to hear it
But then soon is the time you'll be by my side
It's copesetic if you let it so set it up and keep the down stream down and up stream up
My stoney, my baby, swings with the groovin', funk the groovin' thang whistlin'
As I rip my rhymes
Time and time again struttin' and in the summertime
So screw it strip down and be generic
Strip down and be a passenger, strip down and be a messenger
In askin' why I'm born I come up blank in the winter
In askin' why I'm born I come up on when I'm on her
My summer his summer it could be one to go down to go down
It's time to find the kind titillate the flow
Forever together and then I kiss
Swimmin' and hummin' with a body and soul
It's time to find the kind titillate the flow
Swimmin' and hummin'
And then I kiss
My Stoney Baby - (4x)
Nix Hex
Story time
Sways away the haze
They spent contemplating, formulating, theory siring above me swimming
Pay tribute to the few we look up to
Come again
You my soul fool
Who will know us but our brothers
Those who down with us are thinking
New school, tip top, pound the feeble
Walking and talking
Low down and evil
Follow me now
Yo Vato
The nix hex is on
Would everybody just look at the hook
I took it strait from my brain
Reminds me of the time I was insane
And so I wrote it when I was loaded
And voted the least likely to turn out like us
I'm singing it for your mind and no
I'm singing it for your ears
Jump up and down and leave the ground and know that's why your here
And they say down diggey down down, down diggey diggey down, stronger, longer
Line up your ways of know what I'm thinking say it again
And now I'm with my home team back with a good seat
I gladwick like chadwick to tell you what I mean
Were laying back on it just like good sex
Smooth yet physcodelic its called the nix hex-um
The monologue of a singalong
Las banderas de san juan piden pa ?
Go tell it on a mountain, then again bring a friend
You'll maybe get dizzy with a sense of vertigo
Uplifted soul from the view that I'm on nothin' but love
But love
But love in my blood sonic in the vortex
This is the hip thing
Called the nix hex
Plain
I'm in a good way on a bad day
Thinking of a plan a way to stay on top of it
Nailin' in I have a fit if I sit, sit doin' nothin'
Which is what I done so far but I carve a niche
Which sits in my good things brain
Layin' the tracks like a loco mo, spark the Jay
Tabla Rosa is my brain don't mean to bug or drive you insane
Don't have to guess just what I'm sayin if I had a point I'd say it plain
Dammit my brain is blank
And now I say it would be a lie if I said I was inspired
Nothin' to say but that's ok
Nod your head to this
Messin' around, I'm not having it
You bite the hand I put your head out
I come to know a travesty and so sad to see
The scene dictated frustrated former musicians
Switching' the emphasis from art to money
But I demand autonomy what else my friend
I tell you what 's wrong to me the industry's ability to manufacture stars
They churn them out like Iwojema makes cars
But the blame lies not with those suits for trying
It's the sheep that keep on buying that soulless crap
Whatever they put in front of ya
The hysteria of America
Nod your head to this
Well, stress is the enemy and not a friend to me
One thing I see is to be easy goin' throwin' down sit back
And watch my life flowin' and knowing life is but a dream
You can ask my home team
Let me tell you how I seem
My economy seems to be in words not action actually ya see yes
I'm a tempest and I rarely rest
But that's what you go to do if you want to be the best so
I'm on a threshold so don't tell me no
I just flow and know I can count on my bros
Tabla Rosa is my brain don't mean to bug or drive you insane
Don't have to guess just what I'm sayin if I had a point I'd say it plain
Dammit my brain is blank
And now I say it would be a lie if I said I was inspired
Nothin' to say but that's ok
Don't you know that the devil he's in me and God she is too
My Yin hates my Yang, but what the hell ya gonna do
I choose a rocky ass path but that's how I like it
Life's a bowl of punch go ahead and spike it
Feel So Good
Got an opinion that's loud and unbending
I spend my time healing and mending, together
Its a question of whether live positive well i give
P-Nut joins our back, must be arthritic
Tim is from the '70's and so we live it
SA has the wisdom of a Nobel laureate
I'm down for our days of glory
It's easy to do when you're up with Sexton
A rhythmatic genius, turnin' up the next one
Would you know, you're a bro, I flow in that circumstance
You'll get your chance
Because payback is a motherfuckin' mission
To the sharp-ass rocks slippin' on us but we rock
It comes to writing on us derision
Sendin' you a voice now we're sending you a vision
And those who fought me they say they taught me everything I know
I go aww, when I hear that, that chit and that chat, bullshit!
So sick of me knowing everything, saying!
In your face
That's right
And it feels so good
In your face
Yeah
It feels so good
Take it to 'em bro, throw down, now say
Settin' forth a course I'm really wiggin' out
In my dome I roam, no time to doubt
Fucked up you right there while I was rhymin'
Now you're sulking in the corner, a baby crying
Hittin' up now we feelin' to rock Mars
Fuckin' up the shit, now their heads bob
We ain't new to jack swing, the groove and that
We got crazy factiffs and we all that
I don't often rock and I'm a laureate
I don't pull the punch you know I'm throwin' it
Freestyles my style on the mic and flex
You're stalkin' the mind of a punk that's next
I get retarded now that I started you know
A condition which I keep close together
Like the kind buds you know my scene
My team thinks I sing supreme, but you, the weasel,
Try to bring us down but in reality it make you look like a clown
Too bad cause we'll be sittin' in the sun and choose a rocky ass fast ball
In your face
That's right
And it feels so good
In your face
Yeah
It feels so good
Yo P-Nut, beat that thing
Won't you warm the mic Nicholas
Can't get with this my stream of consiousness is a sea
Much like Bukowski with a rage
Speakin' to page
Beasts in the cage
Jumpin' off the stage
Divin'
Thrivin'
Strivin' for a better day or say
Beat back by flesh
Shattered doors braggin' fists to the sky we're feelin' high
Has to live and die
Just take a moment to have a fit once in a while
You know, you know
I do it daily and like it but that's my style, yeah, here I go
In your face
And dow your throat
And it feels so good
In you face
And down your throat
It feels so good
Do You Right
Passin' the kind buds
Kickin' back in the sand in the sun
To be alive is lovin'
Where the shore meets the seam
Man I'm hummin', I'm hummin
I'm free as I stare at the sea
And I'm not comin' down
The world is yours once you have found
The good is to share
Which is elsewhere
The beauty of green is where light is now broken by what it touches
Remembering what you once had told me hit home
And hasn't it always been so
I'm free as I stare at the sea
And I'm not comin' down
The world is yours once you have found
The good is to share
Which is elsewhere
Like I said before I'll say it once more
Knew you would make me feel so good
Wanna do you right
Can't get enough
This is the stuff
Life's about and it trips me out
Wanna do you right
Bright mornings, days when I want so much
I want nothing, just this life and no more
I'll come within this world
There's only one for me
She's waiting, I'll soon come
I'm free as I stare at the sea
And I'm not comin' down
The world is yours once you have found
The good is to share
Which is elsewhere
Free from the burn
No buzz hack. No buss hack, no buzz hack
Swing to the thing you bring
How could you be so good to me, how could you be so good to me
Buzz hack, hack hack, buzz
Swing to the thing you bring, check it out
Fat Chance
(Intro)
You know I'm ready, yes to rock steady
My name's not Betty or Teddy, but Nick
And I'm what you might call a heretic
Yes, and I am from Nebraska
My girl is satisfied, you can ask her
You know I've never visited Alaska
Huh, where the oil was spilt
That drunken captain should be killed
For polluting the sea, an atrocity
He still walks free, well
This one goes to all the birds that drown
Fuck the bullshit it's time to throw down - (4x)
Just fuck the bullshit ?
It's time to throw down and so I said it words of
Wisdom that will keep you guessing cause
I'm tired of laying and I'm tired of messing around
With all those suckers
Yes, those stupid mother fuckers
Who put down what we do
We stand alone with the group that's new
If I was a dwarf, I'd surely be Dopey
I'm a stone wheat thin you can not culture
Kick in the teeth a condescending frown
Fuck the bullshit it's time to throw down - (4x)
Yeah, right about now I'd like to turn the mic over to my man, SA Martinez
I am sly in the mix I am the mix master
Death and destructor, lyric conductor
Rollin with the rhythm of the rhyme I'm rollin
?????
Tim, he leads guitar, he's got the jets
Now the b-boys rockin' breakin' moves on the floor
311's stepping out and you're yellin for more
I'm hoping, I'm poetry in motion
?????
P-Nut, the bass drum is booming
And in your mouth the rhythm is booming
P to the N to the U to the T
Just fuck the has-been's and their stupid-ass rambling
Brothers saying bullshit you can't come through with
Do it in the basement no complacence
It's time to kick the fuck in
Begin to win no sin and then
Share it, declare it in the public domain
Refrain
I'd be perfectly glad if rap was a fad but it's not
So I'd thought I'd come out with a shot
Super dumb lyrics make you think I'm a clown
I don't give a fuck it's time to throw down
Fuck the bullshit it's time to throw down - (4x)
That's right, knockin' them down
Nineties, all that
