Bacchanalia String Quartet - Drinking from the Sun lyrics

[Verse 1: Suffa] I lay down my music ten feet from where I lay down Immersed in them beats, short breaks turned to breakdowns ‘Cause when you work where you sleep, you don't sleep ‘Cause you work on them beats till it hurts then you creep Into bed and wake her from her sleep, and she's hurt ‘Cause she worked through the week and hasn't heard not a word nor a peep From the jerk that she keeps in her heart That she forgives when he nurse her to sleep, word it's deep Yo, when I peel them lids back and emerge from my sleep I feel so big that I could make a shirt from my sheet A crown from a church steeple, two jeeps for my sneaks So people worship this creep as I surf down the street I'm the surgeon of beats, your girl purrs when I speak We rehearse in a church to a circus of freaks We the last ones to lay down, first on our feet So stay down or get hurt by what lurks in the deep Free the perps from the police, we disturbing the peace We flood the streets like a water main burst and released A merciless beast with a thirst for the feast Man we treat every meal like it's our first in a week We dispersing the weak, I'm the person to beat Man I'm unbeatable; I can beat a person for weeks We disturbed, we the freaks, we the ones you don't listen to Drinking from the sun, now son we're the ones dissing you [Hook (DJ Debris Scratches)] And we don't (ever stop), we won't (let it drop) Lad-dah-di-da-dah We don't (ever stop), and we won't (insult ya) Let the vultures at the counter-culture Now we don't (ever stop), and we won't (ever run) Lad-dah-di-da-dah We move mountains and drink from the sun [Verse 2: Pressure] We're timeless like riders on the storm Survivors like the light that rises in the dawn If crisis makes fighters of the pawns We rise up through the night as lifeless and we're born Fight in my heart, suicide with my art Till I depart I'm a write until I light up the dark These are battle songs that lift you from your catatonic fixture And I can walk on water but I stagger on the liquor This ain't a Saturday sport or matinee talk With throw away sentences like the magistrates' court Scratch that, now hear me out, attacks don't give me doubt I drop a powerhouse track black the city out And when we lose it let the mood of music reach us Coming through the tunes that free us, revolution through your speakers The third rock never stops, the world turns Eyes glued to the clock as we watch the world burn [Hook (DJ Debris Scratches)] And we don't (ever stop), we won't (let it drop) Lad-dah-di-da-dah We don't (ever stop), and we won't (insult ya) Let the vultures at the counter-culture Now we don't (ever stop), and we won't (ever run) Lad-dah-di-da-dah We move mountains and drink from the sun [Verse 3: Pressure] Renegades whenever on centre stage That's my sweat upon the letters I bled on the pen and page C'mon, so what's your rhyming worth? Better get a lawyer ‘cause I could crucify your verse just to get a point across We've been refining and grinding till late night Why? ‘Cause even stars lose their shine in the day light Linked as one just think what we'll become It's begun and won't stop till we're drinking from the sun
