[Verse 1: Dylan Hansen]
Kids nowadays spend their allowance on 8 ball
While others struggle catching bullets like a baseball
Hate ya'll if you said I'd never take off
Never play soft to this music shit, my day job
'Lotta people view the world like they Ray Charles
Blinded by the sirens make me wanna tear my face off
Take off your mask and show your true colors
Separate the fakes from your friends
Know your true brothers
I ain't nothing less than a real man
Never wanna make a deal, how you feel man?
He said "An hour of your life for $9.95"
You gladly accept but I'd rather die
Maybe its because I like to question, why?
Or maybe its because I got an extra eye
Struggle daily, got me searching for an extra dime
And lifes short, got me scrambling for extra time
Sit back, relax and roll weed up
Smoke fat, hit that with my feet up
Call my homie, if you know me
Then we stick together like a sticky note
Even if we broke, silly folk
Wanna come around acting real and shit
Only hit for minutes, only want a meal and shit
I got anxiety and deep depression
Maybe school should have a lesson to help me deal with it
They teachin' formulas and other useless information
Make us hate learnin', make us robots for the nation
Creating worker bees that will blindly go for the queen
The corporations, and the one percent that own you fiends
Fiending for a dollar, cause its cash rules many things
Open up your conscious cause that rules everything
There's only a few that know whats up in this world
Started my ascension, cause I don't fuck with this world
[Hook]
That's why we stay high, why we open our minds
Why we open our eyes, our eyes, it's all right
Whatchu know about?
That's why we stay high, why we open our minds
Why we open our eyes, our eyes, it's all right
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 2: Dylan Hansen]
See you later, need a little vacation
Frustrated, need a little bit of patience
I'ma fuck the world, no latex
Sit back, relax with meditation
It's really crazy how the people you look up to
Could be the ones to turn around and really try to crush you
I look around and look what the fuck we've come to
If I'ma make it big then all my brothers gonna come too
I took a look and saw that everything we knew was wrong
Worried about the planet
While you worried about the newest songs
Slash you with katanas, all you worried about is commas
And the dollars and your Mommas ain't no better
Cause they taught you all the same shit
They tellin' you, the same shit they tell the youth
Same shit they sell is news, and they ain't even needing proof
You ever wonder what goes on in the background?
After everything is done and the mask down?
They doin' shit you could never even dream of
The world you livin' in is just a fuckin' scheme bruh
Black and white like a motherfucking zebra
Make you wonder about the bullshit
That they say they need to teach us
Speak the truth but the blinded don't believe us
Hope the youth, indigo, go to free us
You see this shit, this a conscious evolution
You see this shit, that's a conscious revolution
[Hook]
Why we stay high, why we open our minds
Why we open our eyes, our eyes, it's all right
Whatchu know about?
That's why we stay high, why we open our minds
Why we open our eyes, our eyes, it's all right
[Verse 3: Dylan Hansen]
Triple pupils on my dome, sit at home, should have been alone
Fuck a phone, ponder, mind wanders to a different zone
Triple pup-pup-pup-triple-trip-triple-triple-pup-pup-pup
Triple pupils on my dome, sit at home, should have been alone
Fuck a phone, ponder, mind wanders-wan-wanders
To a different zone, to a different zone, to a different zone
To a-to a different zone
Fuck a phone, fuck a phone, fuck a phone
Ponder mind wonders to a different zone
(Skipping)
[Outro]
Why we stay high, why we open our minds
Why we open our eyes, our eyes, it's all right
Why we stay high, why we open our minds
Why we open our eyes, our eyes, all rise
