Atmosphere - Get Fly lyrics

They want us to fight, but we just wanna get high Work all day all night tryin' to get fly When I get some money imma buy me some time I can't fight your war, until I'm finished with mine They want us to fight, but we just wanna get high Work all day all night tryin' to get fly When I get some money imma buy me some time I can't fight your war, until I'm finished with mine I used to be mad at the government Redirected some of my anger towards the mother ship Tryin' to guess which shell living hell sleeps under When the grand scheme plan keeps all these people wondering Why we still runnin in place frustrated? Pride is mistaken for hate, it's upgraded I got a little breath left let's suffocate it Point at the epiphanies and call 'em all drug related The time I spent with my life on bent Tryin' to find the friends inside my head Must have disengaged every phase of the stage With my I'm coming, I'm coming, I'm coming of age My unofficial autobio Will be accompanied with tips on how to smile 'Cause I found that when they don't see you frown They never know that you're a threat and they don't sweat you When you come around So who's gonna be my next door savior Step up to your neighbor and do me a favor Take off the mask let it all collapse Empty the pack and watch your wings grow back They want us to fight, but we just wanna get high Work all day all night tryin' to get fly When I get some money imma buy me some time I can't fight your war, until I'm finished with mine They want us to fight, but we just wanna get high Work all day all night tryin' to get fly When I get some money imma buy me some time I can't fight your war, until I'm finished with mine Society becomes jealousy Intimacy becomes intensity Say it with a smile like it's meant to be And all of a sudden BOOM American family And I could tell when you're mad at your past Because you tend to take them turns just a little too fast I could tell how you pushed your foot on the gas That you already knew that you was gonna finish last Slow it down and take a little time To look up at them clouds with that fake silver lining Up in a tree knowin damn well you'll never reach the top But you don't stop, you keep climbing Well okay, it's settled no more nights in this weed and thorn infested meadow uh uh from this day forth only forward I pedal get the memo I'm cutting the strings Geppetto shuffle the cards and let's argue rooted in between the computer games and cartoons Stop it watch us all get lost Between God and a shot of scotch, let's get fly They want us to fight, but we just wanna get high Work all day all night tryin' to get fly When I get some money imma buy me some time I can't fight your war, until I'm finished with mine They want us to fight, but we just wanna get high Work all day all night tryin' to get fly When I get some money imma buy me some time I can't fight your war, until I'm finished with mine Uh huh… gon' work all day, work all night Uh huh… won't fight your war until I'm finished with mine Uh huh… gon' forward move, gon' buy me some time Uh huh… I'm cutting your strings and keeping my smile Uh huh… gon' work all day, work all night Uh huh… won't fight your war until I'm finished with mine Uh huh… gon' forward move, gon' buy me some time Uh huh… I'm cutting your strings and keeping my smile Uh huh… gon' work all day, work all night Uh huh… won't fight your war until I'm finished with mine Uh huh… gon' forward move, gon' buy me some time Uh huh… I'm cutting your strings and keeping my smile
