lyrics

Analyrical:
No more happy-go-lucky on a whack track
More just happy-dope-drumming on a rap track
Scratch that, I'm just gonna go and keep it pure
To build a forest, im pretty sure you need a cure
Ground up, time for us to bounce up
I found what kills us and normally just frowns us
Drowns us, no more we have a fresh breath
Every song that phingaz and I do feels like the best yet

We on a jet yes, we on a 740
It's got some headrests, and no authorities
It's in the clouds right, It's in the heavens too
To give a smile is to take and make a clever use
Never move then never do and that is just depressing news
So I can flip it mold it and dole it to a domestic truth
If you're happy then, show it to us all
And if you're not, then get that ass up off the wall

Hook:
So go and lead the platoon
The future's all up to you
And can't you see so blatantly
That we are not meant this apathy
All day All Night
(Sunrise, Sunshine, Sunset)
Face up, Don't Hide
(We do it all in one breath)
Cause you will achieve more than capacity
You will always make your reality

Analyrical:
And if it's cloudy then make a reign
drop claims stop pain but do not complain
Jump to your feet all gotta eat
be the best that star elite
Never bask in our defeat
You will be what you want to be
Sweet Sentiments are only in the sincere
Never tell or dwell on how you get here
I think you always fear, whenever new appears
Rapping to young ears, Grabbing the funk near
Back to the frontier, back to the fun years
Phingaz:
The day the earth stood still, He'll never forget it,
Forgetting time and space, but never the place, fear on his face
His previous status erased, the day he stood with kings
He fell from grace
The power - is coursing through his veins
Empowered - he knew he had to rearrange
Un-caged, he never felt like this before
Where once was a wall now an unlocked door

Hook

Phingaz:
A god amongst men, a moral among gods
A shattered glass house, catch a glimpse through the fog
He once though, he'd rally against the odds, party up his ranks and carry on
It's easy it seamed, to do as he sees, sees contradicting but he sees something - he heard her sing once, now he caught the bug, he says hes in love, so what the F-.
He drummed up the courage, to march up to the ruins, rebuild what was ruined, hold tight to what he's doing, loose sight of false movements, withhold himself truant, from all his lost students, reclaim what was useless.
Because his ranks grow thicker and thickest the last sentence he breathed before he fell to his knees, he calls out to his infantry "I believe, I believe, I believe happiness is everything that I see."
