lyrics
[Verse 1 - Borelson]
Welcome to that life where you don’t need to escape
Cause we been making sure we living it our own way
You can rest assured (yeah) we gonna keep it pure
These dreams of ours we be chasing every single day
We thankful to the gods for the dogs doing good (top dawgs) and for the real ones thinking about us when they pray
Haters gonna hate, why we keep em at bay
And no matter what they say we gonna make it anyway
We put our thoughts in motion
Logic and emotion
Time we lose its notion
When we going in
Camera, lights and action
Futuristic direction
Under God’s protection
Never givin in
The feeling is amazing
Inner fire blazing
People they be gazing
The way we shining
Something never seen before, that you can’t ignore
Blessings galore, we can say are called for
Yeah let’s have a toast
To our utmost
But too humble to boast
Never doing the most
Cause we do it for the homies, the mommies, the family, the whole clique, we repppin, protected, yeah that’s how we rollin
[Hook – Angela Nethersole]
We're living in bliss But we are not exempt still We feel in the moments Passing in our seasons here
Weaving through the tribes We've been through the trials We feel what you feel Taking in the moments carefree
[Verse 2]
This is automated, God’s speed, new religion
Deep affirmations, good vibes, new vibrations
Manifesting, speak things into existence
From dream life to real life, yeah this is the mission
We see signs and read signs, we pay attention
We make moves, like charcoal, activation
We make waves, Frank Ocean, see the vision
We break bread, it’s all love, no division
And yeah we outside, this is what it feels like
So ecstatic, carefree, sunbeam to moonlight
(Yeah)
From the back of our minds, to the front of our eyes
This is bigger than us, this is larger than life
The vibrations are high when embracing your path
And the stronger survives, but the strongest will thrive
[Hook]
We're living in bliss But we are not exempt still We feel in the moments Passing in our seasons here Weaving through the tribes We've been through the trials We feel what you feel Taking in the moments carefree
