“This is the "bump this cut, lean back, and cool out” song. Combined efforts from Deetalx and Anatomy on production lead to a one of a kind Oddjobs gem. With half our group in the Twins, and the other half in the Big Apple this past school year, the distance theme naturally arose. Brian Hannah bless...
[Verse 1: Advizer and Crescent Moon]
The broken bottles on the beach always tried to cut my feet
And it makes me feel far away from where I was
But even back in Minneapolis, I'd be rapping to the masses
And they look so far away as they stare at us
I mean this distance between us from what I be thinking
And from what they are thinking makes me want to go swimming
In a liquid that separates us, a lake of this vegas
I catch a stranger's sensations everywhere that I'm living
It's demonstrated by this album and the time that it took
Not quite as long as I woulda likеd to make it, but it's OK
Cuz we're situatеd in different states of mind location
And that's the way that it has to be so we might as well face it
(In certain stages of life) Yo, that's a favorite of mine
If you remember that, then thanks for paying my places in time
My distance to it's "give me all my ex-girlfriends
In one room and ask them what I've been through"
Probably ain't a lot to you but I mean this far apart from me
Crossed a few obstacles and then started to see
It's hard to be close to people and reach those
Who don't operate on what I and we know
What they know is plain clear, rides on insane, weird
Hard to relate to making me think we all aren't the same here
I've changed, steered ways, reared
Off the road and one thing's for sho: the end ain't near
[Hook: Crescent Moon]
Another one comes and another one goes
I wonder if we see the same sky when it snows
The message in the bottle, the unraveling road
The herd migrates to the land down below
Another one comes and another one goes
Another one comes and another one goes
Another one comes
And another one goes
Another one comes
And another one goes
[Verse 2: Crescent Moon]
There's a place I'd like to visit when I close my eyes
I'll walk around inside of it and hold it by my side
It feels so right, in fact I never want to leave
Just drift away forever, making ripples in the sea
These memories of mine cuddle me with comfort
We'll talk about behind while laying under the summer
I try to touch the face of each and every place
But we never embrace, all I'm left with is an aftertaste
I extend my arms, try to seize the moments
So I can tell the tale exactly how she told it
The people on the other side have never seen the Sun
The people on the other side aren't aware there is one
I can say I've been to Heaven, life is but a dream
But every time we meet my heart begins to bleed
Love tapped my shoulder, I turned my head
It told me its secret but I missed what was said
I travel in a circle as a puppet of my mind
With the spirit as my guide blowing kisses from the sky
I try to do my best with each and every breath
But life is a guess and now there's nothing left
It's buried in my flesh where you can never rape it
Deep inside my chest, next to everything that's sacred
It's all I really have to prove that I'm alive
But to you it don't exist, just a soul lost in time
(Just a soul lost in time)
[Hook: Crescent Moon and Advizer]
Another one comes and another one goes
Another one comes and another one goes
Another one comes, another one goes
Another one comes, another one goes
It's like Zach taught me how to count my bars
And now I use that to help kids count the stars
No matter how you are, no matter who you are
No matter where you are, it's like there you are
