Six
[Verse 1: Nick Hexum]
You know patience pushin' a dream brings my demons to life
Songs are vacations, our soul salvation, will you
Suspend your disbelief, I'd like to be the thief
That steals that jaded necklace that you're always wearing, yo
I'd take that thing and with my knife I'd start parin' so
Chop, chop, piece, piece, and send it to the raiders of LA
There are so many, this land of plenty
The things we lack straight square within our grasp

[Chorus: Nick Hexum]
Ever you do, ever you think, whether you're brown or you're pink
I think not thinking's better 'bout it when you stop to think
The jaded ones will wither while we optimistic grow
I settle that a bet'll let a large amount so

[Verse 2: Nick Hexum, Doug "SA" Martinez]
Indulge me just for a minute, imagine no one holdin' out
All tryin' for peace, my brothers down
Some others down, it happens slow, think you should know
The direction that the world go, peace
The number six to make 'em feel like men
They one-up us 'cause we're much too much for them, okay
The method to the mischief's over there, then
Psych, shazam, we strike with the lightnin'
Through space we move and emit an ill tracer
We're set to light your world, kid, we're your maker
Check it, our karma, plus the avant garder
Style of our sect, wise to ways comes to wreck
[Chorus: Nick Hexum, Doug "SA" Martinez]
Ever you do, ever you think, whether you're brown or you're pink (While the masses mill around curse in anguish)
I think not thinking's better 'bout it when you stop to think (311 stompin' 'em down with the quickness)
The jaded ones will wither while the optimistic grow (We see all the crews that be comin' around now)
I settle that a bet will get our sweet-ass style down (Makin' they notes to get our sweet-ass style down)

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3: Doug "SA" Martinez]
Fending off the foes that try to shut us down
Like the warrior souls, we are we never give in
What we call is dope we know will come around
Chill in southern Cali, y'all, that's how we livin'

[Outro: Nick Hexum]
We spend our lives learning
If you like learning, life is large
It could never be only the ups
And the downs will always come around
Yeah, yeah
Like a drive through Estes Park, you
Savor the sun, but when the clouds come, make animals
