Driftin’ Lyrics by Whysir

Imaginary Friends

2017

[Intro: Terence McKenna (spoken-word sample)]
Obviously, when you evolve inside an animal body, localized in space and time, you get a hellacious set of reflexes and muscles designed to deal with immediate threat in the environment; but at the core of the oyster is this portal into universalism, which we have denigrated to what we call the imagination
[Hook]
Driftin'
I feel different
I'm drfting
Floating out
Driftin'
Man, I feel different
Driftin
Floating out
[Intro Sample]
Ladies and gentlemen, Whysir
[Verse 1]
This is for the kids in basements
Sipping whatever they've sold you
In a time where we can train you to play ball
Or to be soldiers
Or to feel unworthy of the path you choose
As if you chose to
Rest behind the holes in front of your skull
You're here that means they own you
You're one of them so go to school and go to church
And learn what's cool
And crave that stuff and start to drool
And go bankrupt acting a fool
Like you knew where path would end up
When you started walking it
Gotta lotta baggage on you
Sitting road side talking shit
We've got a space for vagrants just like you
Who can't follow the rules
Get desperate and then fuck up
And then we'll put your ass to use
Take a tab then teeth will dry
From the forced smiles on your faces
Side affects from antidepressants and non inflammatory agents
If wait gets intolerable just ask friends or neighbors
They charge more cuz they scored first
But you get what you paid for
In the land where standing in line for stuff is considered labor
I can't stand for pharma culture
I don't trust these pills or their makers
So i'm
[Hook]
Driftin'
I feel different
I'm drfting
Floating out
Driftin'
Man, I feel different
Driftin
Floating out
[Verse 2]
Drifting in and out of dimensions did I mention I'm dope
Meant for greatness grate your cheesy bars it's butter that I smoke
I'm a psychonaut and ass will not determine which way I go
But acid may and MDMA and shrooms and maybe even dro
I watch the news and break a sweat and write a rap and cash a check and take some drugs my life's a wreck so self destruct
Amassing debt
I wish I could escape the traps I feel I'm always walking in
I've gotta my life back on its track so grab some scratch and wins
I gotta space I've built inside my mind that takes me into space i fuel the craft and then blast off
The whole planet is then erased
And when you emcees on the fence see me
I can't wait to see your faces
In the meantime I'll be grindin
Down In Portland
Cashing rain checks
If pain gets intolerable consult a physician
And if you're bored see a hypnotist, palm reader or magician
I'm a technician out of work
Who has his tech game legit and
I may just be imaginary
Mirage in the distance
[Hook]
Driftin'
I feel different
I'm drfting
Floating out
Driftin'
Man, I feel different
Driftin
Floating out
