Thomas Burgundy - Primary Hues (Outro That Never Ends) lyrics

[Intro: Christof from The Truman Show] We accept the reality of the world with which we’re presented, it’s as simple as that [Verse 1] I feel like a bird in an elevator Heading upwards forgetting I could fly Cause I’ve been confined to this building for so long I thought the top floor was the highest I could go Cause I never been outside, see See I was born here This is probably where imma die But look at these roses that I water every day They’re in a vase They tell me they feel out of place We conversate cause we relate I don’t know how we’re both still alive But I don’t know what I’m talking about half the time I’m talking about it Cause all i know is all i know But even that I think I doubt it See I do know ignorance is bliss But ignorance is the same thing that’s kept me like this And knowledge is power but I don’t know what to do with it Cause the more i know, the more I’m stressed Matterfact, the more I know, the more I’m pissed So if i sound mad, it’s cause I am Reflecting on my reality that’s just secondhand And I define myself by another man’s definition Living in an overpopulated state of mind Just following tradition See art imitates life then imitates art from that new dimension Til I can’t tell the difference Between metaphysics, internet, and television So as the record’s spinning Catch a glimpse of my perspective Welcome to my frame of reference Welcome to my frame of reference, yeah Just hope you see my frame of reference This is just my frame of reference Paint a picture with the paint i was given [Howard Beale from Network] But man… Your’e never gonna get any truth from us We’ll tell you anything you want to hear, we lie like hell We deal in illusions, man. None of it is true! But you people sit there day after day, night after night, all ages, colors, creeds – we’re all you know You’re beginning to believe the illusions we’re spinning here. You’re beginning to think that the tube is reality and that your own lives are unreal You do whatever the tube tells you. You dress like the tube, you eat like the tube, you raise your children like the tube You even think like the tube. This is ma** madness. You maniacs. In God’s name, you people are the real thing We are the illusion So if you want the truth, go to God Go to your gurus Go to yourself Because that’s the only place you’re ever gonna find any real truth [Verse 2] Another black and brown kid raised by a single mother With self-identity issues and an undying hunger For closure Closure that I’ll never get Especially where I’m looking, I don’t know what I expect So forgive me for receiving guidance from my favorite rappers Forgive me Lord but I never related to my pastors I know You sent Your Son to die on the cross for my sins But they painted Him Caucasian, see where that disconnect begins? Cause the Prince of Peace came from the Middle East And my country claims they represent what He teaches But if Jesus tried to come into my country today They wouldn’t let Him in What makes you think they’ll ever accept me? But I’m trying not to focus so much on the latter Cause that don’t even matter Man none of these even matters Cause all of this is gonna fade away The only thing that lasts is God’s Word What do God gotta say? If we could just love one another If we could all love one another Even when they hate you can you love one another? God is love, can we love one another? There’s nothing new under the sun so let me quit stressing Wisdom’s calling me, she’s tryna teach a quick lesson And God told me all I got is love and music So Im’ma give it to the world and hope that they could use it [Outro] This is the song that never ends It just goes on and on my friends My people started singing it not knowing what it was And we’ll continue singing it forever just because This is the song that never ends It just goes on and on my friends My people started singing it not knowing what it was And we’ll continue singing it forever just because This is the song that never ends It just goes on and on my friends My people started singing it not knowing what it was And we’ll continue singing it forever just because This is the song that never ends It just goes on and on my friends My people started singing it not knowing what it was And we’ll continue singing it forever just because This is the song that never ends It just goes on and on my friends My people started singing it not knowing what it was And we’ll continue singing it forever just becauseThis is the song that never ends It just goes on and on my friends My people started singing it not knowing what it was And we’ll continue singing it forever just because [Horatio] Everyone goes… Everyone comes and leaves No one was meant to live forever People will die You could die right now, I could die right now But that’s why we have to learn how to be tough Cause life, especially won’t be easy for us. Life won’t be easy for us Daishanay That’s why we need to learn how to be tough like, your friend might die in front of you, that’s why I’m saying you need to be tough…
