Flying Lotus - Old Souls lyrics

[The Grouch] I know this place been here before deja vu Energy source vortexes Texaco's too Revisitin' and yet so new You ain't gotta explain to me I use my ears to see and the rain to breathe amphibious, amphidextrous I am the wittiest can't impress me with mere mortal portals Take a look at my mind what force i'll scorch you Scalding, I'm balding that don't mean I'm finished Just I almost know all things Draw strings, keep the cat in the bag what's it all mean? Let it out right now told you at the lake, release that's how [Hook] Now if life keeps askin' you the same questions You ain't learnin' the lessons (X7) [Eligh] I threw a la**o round the sun when I was born I was ejected from the womb The soul it weights a ton the body light I'm torn away from god in such a way I cried on earth again My curse to bend my karma back to shape but just to work the pen Within' my limbs I had my final date My destiny the curtain call the crate But worst of all the great burden of perfection on my slate It states this man will make his case And find his ace of spades or be disgraced Or face the governing body of space With nothing to show for but a bad habit and some ba** So I worked the field like a jack rabbit to fix my karma Intensify my aura to reflect off the seven seas A farmer as it pa**ed I said it, in my younger days Without knowing my fetish to help man in a ton of ways Escape from earth the soul has been here many times Pisces my lifeline I've made mistakes of many kinds And I'll make more, before I buy the farm Cause mother's earth energy will pull me by the arm She charms me with her oceans and her promises of pleasure Her soul is the treasure, I learned my lesson young [Hook] [Blu] Yeah, patience Painted with the blood of the ancients Before we was forced on a slave ship to build a nation This soul was plated in gold claiming the throne Five hundred years and still ain't been home Still I ain't been home I found my lineage in a song, long play Listening to memories all day, blown Asked the brother, "how could he sell his soul?" He said, "easy, what you hone you don't own" The knowledge you speak has been told Loops, life keeps repeating these notes I see major, somebody said they need paper to eat But a man shouldn't eat off bread alone, I'm heading home Sooner or later the creator will call And I ain't bout to be playing the wall, facing my wrongs God's speed as I pace to the law Wondering if I should say grace or be making salah Somebody said I got an old soul I'm just trying to figure out my role before the doors close
