Lyrics
I wanna have a light source coming out from here
So we'll start with this white with a little yellow in it
Just like so
I love these little scenes where the light's coming from behind
Or it's coming from behind a tree or something
And just projecting through
To me, those are so beautiful
And it's unbelievable what you can do with 'em
Yeah, put all my hurts on paper so I can grip some
Put all my dirt on the table so I don't trip on nothin'
My world on tape, I can slow it down, pitch it up
Words dance on the page like dyslexia
It's only right I leave behind a document
Special shoutout if you tune in and post the apocalypse
It's that rare kinda gem, record a breathe of oxygen
Scrolls of what I seen, how I felt in the moment, yeah
I seen a lot of beauty in between the omens
Seen truth roll over my dude like a wave of lotion
I seen a homie drink the Kool-Aid potion
With both hands and get programmed by the top of the totem
They got us all whipped with a rise belt
Plutocrats pimpin' minds like they do the globe, yeah
Steve Bannon made his money off of Seinfeld
And Al Newman got the nuclear code, so
This might be the last time we gon' have time (Yeah)
'Fore I get up in the
Memories, I'ma grab mine, yeah
This might be the last time we gon' have time, yeah
I don't know about
Memories, I'ma grab mine, ooh
Around the time I had those unrolled wristbands
My arms ready to reach into the unknown and grip that (Yeah)
My man Andy showed me somethin' on the Discman
Planted a seed deep inside the knitted hat
Fast forward 'round the time Yogi's soul drive-by nights
Felt like I could look at a rock and that shit would shine bright
By the time Faiz recorded "Wong"
All the wrong colors on the horizon, couldn't get my mind right, mm
By the time Charlotte got in the limelight
I was like, "If some hope don't come in soon, then the tides might"
Water risin', holdin' on to the promise
That in a couple years, we gon' have that 20/20 hindsight
By the time Mohamed got into film school
Feelin' good, celebrations with the crew
I could see that moment for what it
Was knowin' I miss that dude (For real)
Summer's so short, man, listen to Stu (Mm)
Yeah, this might be the last time 'fore I get up in the
Memories, I'ma grab mine, ooh
This might be the last time we gon' have time, yeah
I don't know about
But memories, I'ma grab mine
I like these little paintings
I hope you do too
They're so interesting and they're very easy to do
Even for people who have never painted before
These little paintings are so nice
They're great
There, now then, maybe
But, once again, don't just hit at random
Think about form and shape that's going on up there
Now then, just blend it outward, outward, outward
But you want it to get darker and darker
As it moves away from that light source
There
Up to there somewhere
And already, it looks like here's a glow happening back here
And that's what we're looking for
Okay, and very lightly, we'll just brush
It a little, take out the brushstrokes
Sometimes when you're doing these, it's interesting
If you wanna put the indication of light rays, you can just pull
I don't know if you can see that or not, but it'll make
Indication of little rays of light zingin' through the woods or
Wherever it happens to be
This is an excellent way to make those type of scenes
See, it looks just like here's a glow back here, big lantern
A few little sticks and twigs that live out here
There
Don't want these to be very dark
Though they're, they're way out here in this light
So they also would be very, very subdued
You almost can't see 'em
There
But we know they're there
We know they're there
