The Avalanches
Tonight May Have To Last Me All My Life (Edan Remix)
[Intro]
[?]
Flip it, terrific
And I'll be specific
The words I say (Pump it up)
Shows much significance
And for instance
If you take time
To figure out each rhyme
You must figure out-
You must figure out-
You must fi- out-
Out each rhyme
You know it gotta make much sense, ayo

[Verse: Edan]
I'm out to live tonight like it's the final night of all of my living
Appreciating all that I've been given
The physical body, a miracle of composition
Consisting of several million cellular systems
Forming a living organism
To witness and absorb the existence of an Earth
That orbits the source with perfect proportionate distance
Equilibrius, harmonious, life giving
Relationship between the Sun and the Earth is tight, dig it
By the slightest percentage
We live a miracle which reinforces
There being forces beyond the physical
I knew the wizardry was wise
When my eyes went along lines that finally arrive at the horizon
So mathematically joined at the vanishing point
To describe this, vocabulary had to be coined
Terminology invented, phenomenally defined
By significant minds, such as Einstein
Without the long line of strong-minded scientists
The globe would be without most household appliances
That make yo ice freezy, that make yo life easy
Satellites allowing any you likes to use sights to see me
Not to mention inventions, like the phonograph
If not for Edison, enough of them would've known the half
On a myriad of musical mentors, MC's to radical rockers
And classical sonata's
So realists set impressions as painters
Man-made spaces using amazing architectural angles
Intellectual breakthroughs that gave you the gift
Still, we doin' this foolishness?
Truth of it is, despite the damage we doin' [?]
The [?] shall rejuvenate
If the human race self-mutilates
Using racially motivated hate that splits society
Where life is built with nothing but variety
We the third rock, the Earth got locked in the perfect spot
To flourish, watch the birds flock and perch atop
A tree branch, emerging from green plants
If you had these fam, you'll see yourself standing in beat sand
Watching ships from shore, underwater lobster and shrimp galore
Dolphins, fish and coral all of this and more
Exploring forest hills until your mortal will re-aligns
Refined to the floral build, the chlorophyll
There's more to this than meets the eye, dude
That's why you invert the light viewed through the iris
And see the sky is blue
If you a thug who find my lyric too scientific
And wish to try and diss it then fuck you
[Interlude: Doug E. Fresh & The Get Fresh Crew]
There's no need to curse
Try to diss me and I'll tell you first
Slow down, be cool and don't act ill
