Sad Day 03:51
It's a sad day, oh in America When we can't trust no one, no one at all A sad day, when we can't seem to see A sad day, for you and for me Oh you know Know that it's good Know that you should Get a move on, yeah Oh its a sad day, in this country of ours We can't trust our brothers upholding the law A sad day, when we can't seem to see Whats right for you and for me Oh you know Know that it's good Know that you should Get a move on, yeah

Golden Sun 05:23
I rise along with the golden sun, the toil of the day has just begun The fields stretch out before my eyes, a workers hopes at once turn into cries We did it wrong, all wrong We did it wrong Joyful memories of the past, lead us through our daily tasks When the evening sun has died, we'll sit reflect on average lives We did it wrong, all wrong We did it wrong

From a state of procrastination I perpend life, and it's implications Our humble world, bullied by our vices Every day is plagued by ethical crises Our oppressors operating in disguises Converting beings into commodities and prices Securing our fate to be undone by our devices I wake up and prepare the Apparatus Marijuanicus

Smile 05:53
Been two years and a hell of a ride, we had Richmond and the Void the other night but... It's been popping better than we planned Looking back it all seems so strange, 'Mikey Time' was a fool and deranged So we got Miles in the band, gimme the bridge now Well we knew he had some time to kill, been cooking up fries at the Amsterdam grill He took us climbing on the ridge In a couple of months we got it all figured out, Miles rolled some bud and I got some stout now... So we going to that bridge, Chain Bridge! Smile, smile, when you say, that you're going away No tears, when we look back on through the years The memories don't change, they're always stuck within your brain So smile, won't you a while You are our good friend, and you're welcome back until the end The best thing that you have, follow your own path But please look back on us and smile Miles is a funky ass fool and he has to take his funky ass back to school I wonder if he's ever gonna learn... Going out of town on a big ass train, the dude said he needed some change and... A lot of Colorado weed to burn, give me the bridge! I found heaven in the 707, flying up the 101 Climbing a mountain overlooking the bay, pack a couple 40's and jays, won't you Miles East 299 to Willow we go, floating down the riverside Up in the trees came a smoke through the breeze Man, I was glad to be in Trinidad

I go crazy all the time, cause I've got you all up on my mind You got me on a high, acting kind of wild, wild It's been a while since I Took a drive, past the line yeah I'll get there right at closing time Can't understand, can't understand It's been a long time since I Had some music in my life, oh in my life Look over each shelf once or twice Can't understand, can't understand I go crazy all the time, cause I've got you all up on my mind You got me on a high, acting kind of wild, wild Love is hard to find, but if all you do is cry, cry, cry Think I want to try, just want to get to know you child

I always looked up through the clouds Watching the stars all move about When we first passed through this place A big old step, for all the human race We'll find our way, today So don't you want to, come outside and play We got too much to do, today So let's get out and on our way We passed the south side of the sky Saturn's moons really caught my eye I'm getting ready, anxious to fly We'll pass by Mars and Jupiter tonight We'll find our way, today So don't you want to, come outside and play We got too much to do, today So let's get out and on our way
