tree of life - debaser(of sandpeople) lyrics
[intro: sample and sapient]
shake that tree of life
cut your troubles with your own special knife (special knife)
and if ya
and if ya
and if ya (and if ya)
and if ya
and if ya (and if ya)
[verse 1: sapient]
sharpen it too sharp, the blade’ll become brittle and break
reduced to a pitiful scr*pe
no cutting your troubles, it’s better than that (whoo!)
bludgeon and b*tting ’em with the edge of a branch (whoo!)
i speak in gestures and code for
the secrets we base this off freemason law and folklore
cause the true story is a cold war gone lukewarm
and too boring to be told more
but if i keep it simple, they follow along
while we bounce b*lls
burning fields ’til they’re under that tree of life
but we shake that sh*t ’til the tree house falls
come on!
[chorus: sample, sapient, and ethic]
shake that tree of life
cut your troubles with your own special knife
and if ya shake that tree of life (shake that sh*t)
cut your troubles with your own special knife
until them leaves fall off
and if ya
and if ya
and if ya
and if ya
and if ya
[verse 2: ethic]
nothing but silence, these pontius pilates
find perfection and then try to crucify it
uh, but we above ’em in rank
we on that road to success with enough in the tank
i don’t hope for the best, i got production by sape
and it’s known to infect, there ain’t no open debate
putting a foot in the door, leaving an opening sp*ce
when they ain’t looking no more then we gon’ go for the safe
and it’s a rich industry
we gon’ get in it be
one of the most prolific groups y’all will ever see
from the nw
we ain’t in clubs
we in the rain entertained by them thick drums
shake that tree of life
shake that sh*t
[chorus: sample and ethic]
shake that tree of life (deader leaves)
cut your troubles with your own special knife
and if ya shake that tree of life (shake that sh*t)
cut your troubles with your own special knife
motherf*ckers
and if ya
and if ya
and if ya
and if ya
and if ya
[verse 3: ethic]
we ain’t a group that was formed like a bunch of these failed ones
and hit this with limitless economies of scale
uh, that’s why we’re born while y’all flat*line
came out the womb, looked at the world, like that’s mine
and we ain’t change perspective
rage virus, 28 days infected
we came silently
the fact is we’ve been on a path that leads from destined to dynasty
[verse 4: sapient]
i’ve resigned the lease in the land where your luck stops
where a golden calf can become
i was once taught to appreciate anything you have in your lunchbox
but you’re not grasping the sub*plot
this side’s where the grass is greener
no, it’s not a state of mind if the gas is cheaper
leaving as if he’s sprung and spun like a ballerina
while they gather up my crumbs like a vacuum cleaner
i tell ’em
[chorus: sample]
shake that tree of life
cut your troubles with your own special knife
and if ya shake that tree of life
cut your troubles with your own special knife
and if ya
and if ya
and if ya
and if ya
and if ya
