Mirage - Quelle Chris/Chris Keys.mp3

[00:00.000] 作曲 : Chris Keys/Gavin Tenille
[00:11.060] Stepped out like Scooby-Doo and the gang
[00:14.191] With a sack of treats as the case completes
[00:16.978] The villains knew the name
[00:18.733] We was stuffin' chillums with that lame
[00:21.186] Back when dime sacks was the thing
[00:24.030] Now we glide 'cross skies like Liu Kang, no shame
[00:28.403] We carried the state on our back like new quarter change
[00:32.111] Rats was at 'em like Elmira to Maximillian
[00:34.845] I was focused on the craft, I knew racks was in the cards (I knew it)
[00:38.784] Sorta mutant, I seemed to see through the ceilings
[00:42.340] Some homies hid under tables
[00:43.807] My head was up in the stars (Up in the stars, nigga)
[00:46.191] That's real large
[00:48.412] I know niggas that caved in but still gods
[00:51.489] Some said it's pre-programmed, some state it's up to Allah
[00:54.991] You ask me, it's all part the mirage, ah-ha-ha!
[01:02.901] Who's that? It's Chris and Q in the Subaru
[01:07.131] Don't think that far
[01:08.201] Who's that?
[01:08.915] No, whoa
[01:14.812] I thought I saw a fountain
[01:16.213] I thought I saw me on the other side of the see-saw mounted
[01:19.959] Bouncing, on the up-and-up, countin' downers
[01:22.656] The rate flounder-flat to bring you 'round the bend and back
[01:25.969] But now what?
[01:26.770] The hour's not a alibi, doesn't add up
[01:29.257] You outta time, fried like halibut with two sides
[01:32.298] Smizing for the camera, I surmise
[01:34.531] The lie what did the damage
[01:36.609] Had to leave you with a treatise, was signed
[01:39.001] And switched the plan up, boundaries get redefined
[01:41.343] I read the vines, it's a madness, we hacking limes, sink my teeth
[01:45.112] Way past the meat into the rind when I grab it
[01:47.435] The bittersweetness of times I wish to capture
[01:50.823] Abandon reason for the slime of greener pastures
[01:54.260] They tried to leave me
[01:55.231] Couldn't find me when I finally answered, tiny dancer
[01:57.920] Hold me closer, don't be sliding backwards
[02:00.711] Forward further like AKAI told me on the tollway
[02:04.264] The soles planted, the hands scrape the sky (Yeah-yeah, oh)
[02:06.918] When the chances that the Medevacs left was hella high
[02:10.598] We hit the tavern for some gin and rye
[02:12.661] Whiskey gingerly applied (Ooh, ooh)
[02:14.477] The image shifted side to side in the distance
[02:17.537] You tripping over lines (Ooh, hey)
[02:19.229] Slipping, we been to...
[02:20.452] Yeah-yeah, hey
[02:22.054] Don't think it wasn't when it was, he's no mirage
[02:23.997] Mirage in the darkness
[02:26.868] Yeah-yeah, oh
[02:27.588] We all wise
[02:29.882] Oh yeah, hit me in the heart one day, it's just words
[02:33.164] A string of letters I smashed together
[02:35.442] Some random sequence calls to cast the weather
[02:38.240] InSh'Allah could last forever
[02:39.806] I don't have to be here, but I made it through
[02:43.072] Through a maelstrom
[02:44.578] The director's cut might not even make the album cut
[02:47.879] That's where the melanated, melancholy style's from
[02:51.253] Fly, birdie, fly, be as wise as the owl
[02:54.636] Keep the eye of the falcon, that's eyein' the sparrow
[02:57.930] I know my daughter's watching, I know you watch me
[03:00.808] I know the times rocky
[03:02.356] I know it's hard to remember, it blurred
[03:04.589] December was brrr (Mm, mm)
[03:05.920] My ten toes dig in the dirt, feeling the earth
[03:09.098] I'm willing to merch, fourth quarter, final, moxie (Ooh-ooh, hey)
[03:12.022] It was dark, like the light forgot me
[03:14.605] Oh Lord, then a spark (Hey-hey, hey)
[03:17.053] Innocent of sins, rosemary; when reality bit, it pierced my heart
[03:20.762] But lifted hardships, my soul carried
[03:23.423] A voice close near me, said, "Don't be so scary"
[03:25.773] "Enjoy your thirties"
[03:28.327] Listen, I'm still looking for father figures (Ah-ah, ah)
[03:30.520] Around me, in even niggas who clowned me (Ah-ah, ah)
[03:33.237] The last laugh is a nectar
[03:34.820] But the sweetest get-back is being completely free (Facts)
[03:38.648] Completely me
[03:40.633] The smell of burnt sage, let the seasons reap
[03:43.586] Don't overthink it, breathe deep frequently
[03:45.350] Don't think it wasn't when it was, he's no mirage
[03:45.895] The mirage
[03:47.037] Yeah-yeah, yay
[03:50.610] Mirage
[03:54.119] The mirage
[04:15.695]
[04:28.258] Yeah, feels good to be back. I spend most of my days now in my garden,
[04:35.322] growing food and medicinal plants and shit that we smoking on
[04:39.639] now-type-of-thing, and pondering the next moves, you know what I'm saying?
[04:43.985] Like, what the **** is going on out here?
[04:46.504] We all know something is,
[04:48.753] you know, around the corner.
[04:50.031] And we feel it in our souls.
[04:52.751] It's manifesting itself in our art, even.
[04:57.310] The movies we make are largely dystopian, post-apocalyptic.
[05:02.353] I think we all just trying to make sense of it somehow. And that's cool.
[05:08.337] Sometimes, it just be them seasons. Predatory capitalism.
[05:14.040] And all the -isms, you know what I'm saying? And err'ybody's fed up.
[05:19.368] And people don't know what to do, so we make our art and art is beautiful.
[05:26.854] But art is also the truth. So we know you know. Come on,
[05:32.070] you know. You know you know you know
[05:34.295] So what are you doing about it?
[05:36.338] Most people's just waiting for something to happen
[05:39.624] without even preparing for anything, you know what I'm saying?
[05:43.088] Right now, Ukraine, power off. Venezuela,
[05:47.070] they shut the power off. Just this week, 44 million people,
[05:51.076] South America, power off.
[05:52.631] That's how we start modern warfare nowadays.
[05:55.557] We just cut your power and your internet off.
[05:57.473] Give that one week,
[05:58.664] without the little faucet running and your little water
[06:01.567] coming out and your 'frigerator not being on and shit and your diabetes medication not being cold.
[06:08.339] And you assed out
[06:10.847] Make your actions match your ambitions to survive.
[06:14.517] You need to get ready like we are. That means being in shape.
[06:19.628] That means being in touch with your ancestors and your spirituality,
[06:24.560] you feel me?
[06:25.568] What’s gon’ come to pass is what’s gon’ come to pass.
[06:28.607] All that voting and all that shit—you can do that, that’s cool,
[06:31.676] but that ain’t gon’ stop it. It’s—It’s already on the way, you know what I’m saying?
[06:35.960] So, just buckle up. Have a good time, you know? Security is largely a superstition.
[06:42.016] It does not exist in nature
[06:44.551] Life is either a grand adventure or nothing, baby.
[06:48.222] Go have your adventure, 'cause I’m having mine
[06:51.168] Big Sen, peace out, one love
[06:59.822] Yeah-yeah, yay
[07:00.731] Yeah-yeah, aww
