Millenium Dodo lyrics - Atmosphere

I only act like an asshole
Why don't ya'll stay in back
Let the man grow
I can't tell what town this is
But I know that bill was a counterfeit
Hye bartender, bump a top jar
Gotta think about where to dump this cop car
I'm too slick, so fuck your bullshit
I'm coolin in the corner with my custom pool stick
My grandad must've played the jazz
When I bleed you can hear my heartbeat snap
All around the world, its the same bar
Wishin that the jukebox had some Gangstarr
State to state, I chase fate
But my stereo ate all my favorite tapes
So babydoll, you better straighten up the attitude
Or you ain't gonna make it with me
All the way to Baton Rouge
Call her mama, she make the milk pour
A 94', too high to read the billboard
Got a room at the Best Western
The guy at the front desk looks like Les Nessman
Hush now, not a sound
Shut the door, and lay your towel down
Ya'll run around and figure out what its all about
While I try to find a cure for this cotton mouth
I keep track of the miles I run
But read the flask, say Southside, son
Took a sip through the hole of my ski mask
Roll till we get to the Burbs for the cheap gas
Speed pass, Millenium Dodo
I got my own lane, I don't wait for the popo
So order up another plate of oysters
You talk so much, you makin my voice hurt
Dental floss inside of the glove box
Radio locked on the classic rock
With the mirrorball, Escape From New York style
Double parked outside of the court house
The windchill got a big ol butt
My breath fog all the windows up
Take a break from the rotten grapevines
Fill the tank and then spank the state lines
Never make this mountain move, naw you're bound to lose
But I knew that I could count on you
Next rounds on you (Is that true?)
Wash my sins off in the rain
Caught this fish now, light the flame
I only claim whats in my veins
That's my crown and that's my name
Gotta wait till they slash the price
Before you catch a life
But we can spend half the night with the dashboard light
(Is that right?)
I'm just sayin if its all a game, you can hang your pain
In the hall of fame
Don't make me explain, that's my crown and that's my name

The pick pockets call me Ali Baba
I'm here to sell you some magic water
You might know me as Jacob and Malcom's father
Rest in peace Eyedea and Sally Slaughter
Its like that ya'll

Who I'll Never Be lyrics - Atmosphere

She locked herself in that room
With a full view of a full moon
And this where she come to fly
When she wanna disappear from what's outside.
I try not to make it obvious
She doesn't know there's an audience.
These walls are ribbon thin
So it ain't my fault that I'm listenin'.
And I can make out every word
Cause she sing loud like a trapped bird
She looks out at the stars
When she writes songs on that guitar.

And every song you write without me,
Just another sad song to me.
And every song you write without me,
Sound like who I'll never be.

She picked up her instrument
And I don't know where I went.
I just close my eyes and float
Like I'm in there with her tryin' to hold all
The notes she hits, motionless,
A secret solo show she gives.
Sometimes she'll search for a line
And I wish I could give her one of mine.
But it would all unravel
If she found out I was in the shadows.
So I suppress what I obsess,
But your biggest fan wanna sing a duet.

Because every song you write without me,
Just another sad song to me.
And every song you write without me,
Sound like who I'll never be.

Familiar with the voice of the lonely,
Lost in the noise of the wind blowing,
Go ahead, girl, tell your story,
But the siren don't wail for holy.
Play your heart by strings,
With the parts you sing.
Can't wait to hear what tomorrow brings.
And if you ever get to smile,
I'll be right here tryin' to reconcile
My desire to admire your sadness.
You gonna rise from the fire and ashes.
And if it's all the same to you,
You oughta let me be the one to help change your tune

Cause every song you write without me,
Just another sad song to me.
And every song you write without me,
Sound like who I'll never be.

I Don't Need Brighter Days lyrics - Atmosphere

I don't need brighter days
I just need some faith

You got me walkin' away now
You got me walkin' away
You got me walkin' away now
You got me walkin' away

It was the year of the witch
Nobody steered clear of the ditch
They say brave when you don't flinch
But we never saw the blade, never had the chance to cringe
Don't ever forget to put misery on the guest list
Sippin' on a memory for breakfast
Middle of the of the party, all alone
You wanna dig up bones but your claws ain't grown
Put your half empty glass on a coaster, step backwards slow
Got a sky full of bats circlin' over the crowd
Your eyes go black when you open your mouth
I'm like, walkin on a frozen rain, wanna claim a block that's got no complaints
But I'm dyin in a city called look at me now
Little piggy wanna cook up the cow
I'm like, might as well knock down them walls
When the earthquakes follow you for all of your faults
Let the facade fall dead in the fog
While the voices that are inside of your head applaud
I'm like, everyone got a course to fly
Run towards a rise and aim for the sky
So high, sleepin' under the stars
You outgrew the sum of your parts
I used to run wild like a child of thieves
Now I, breathe quiet in a pile of leaves
With a space heater on the back of my porch
For when I take a break from attacking your fort
You said you want it
But you can't see the center of the web because you standin on it
Don't wait to escape from the ways you escape
Just throw your hands up and say

You got me walkin' away now
You got me walkin' away
You got me walkin' away now
You got me walkin' away

I don't need brighter days
I just need some faith

Ain't Nobody - Atmosphere

Spoke up, hold up, I'm on that grown-up stuff.
I'll be the butte of your joke, 'cause I can hold my cup.
You jumped in that tub, you're trying to soak it up.
You chose to go and get stuck, I'm not your gold rush.
Yea I showed up. Was hoping to post up.
Every few moments you move more closer.
I notice the donuts. I'm open to no such.
Like it's my obligation to show love, you know what?
Yeah you know what.

[Chorus:]
Yeah I came to party, but I don't wanna party with you.
You know I ain't nobody.
Yeah I came to party, but I don't wanna party with you.

Uh huh, that's when it became apparent,
That you're accustomed to the ways of embarrassment.
Uh huh, I want no place in your experiment,
But if I walk away you'll blame it on my arrogance.
Let's make this clear, I'm not your therapist.
There is no interest in hearing about your carelessness.
I'd rather disappear like a spirit
Just lift into the air, carry me away from where this is.
I'm not hearing.

[Chorus]

Looking around for a cause to get lost to.
The drop off's too deep to try to cross through.
There's no crown for the fisherman that caught you,
So this the sound of me whistling the wrong tune.
It's gotta be obvious I'm not who you should talk to.
You oughta probably just walk, no one'll stop you.
Fly to the wash room, try to fix your costume.
Yeah I'm with somebody and I promise that she's not you.
Thought you knew.

[Chorus]

Now you go and wait
Far away
Now you go and wait
Far away

Your Name Here lyrics - Atmosphere

Heyyy
How you doing?
Ain't seen you in a long time
Is everything all fine?
Doing your best?
I'm glad to hear it
It's all progress
Yeah that's the spirit
Look at you!
You look great!
It seems like you kept your self in good shape
You stopped drinking?
Huh?
Congratulations.
You back in school too?
That's fascinating...
So what you doing now a days?
You living here again or just vising for the holidays?
Yeah yeah
Hows your family?
Hows you mommy and daddy?
They living happily?
So tell me all about LA
Huh?
You don't live in LA?
Hold up
Wait wait wait
Chicago
Hows Chicago?
What?!
No?
Well where you living then?
Ohhhhhhhh...
My fault
Please forgive me
Bad memories
So how's the big city?
You paying dues?
You making moves?
Yeah I always knew someday you'd break through
You've forever been a go getter
And I won't forget that
Bet that I'll remember
I never told you this but
I wish you the best, success and all that other shit.
But that's my que
I got stuff to do
It was a special surprise to bump into you
Stay safe
You have yourself a great day
Wait!
What was that?
What you say?
My phone number?
Nah I don't think so
I only gave it to a handful of close people.
Let's not make this into an issue
But the truth is...

I don't miss you

La La La La La
I will disappear
La La La La La
No far and no near
La La La La La
You are not my dear

I don't care where you go from here

La La La La La
I will disappear
La La La La La
No far and no near
La La La La La
You are not my dear

There's no tears next to your name here...

La La La La La

La La La La La

If You Can Save Me Now lyrics - Atmosphere

If you can save me now,
Let's go someplace safe and sound.
I'll try not to weigh you down,
But I don't know if I can wait around.
If you can save me now,
Let's go someplace safe and sound...

It happened fast, like a camera flash.
The accident - then the aftermath.
Not even sure what caused the crash.
If I had the strength, I would probably laugh.
I'm so relaxed.
Warm like blood.
Layin' on my back in the sun-dried mud.
There's no point in even trying to get up.
I got my eyes glued to the blue sky above.
And it's been a beautiful summer.
It reminds me of when I was younger.
Used to count down to the sound of thunder
I smell fresh cut grass mixed with the burnt rubber.
And I don't need to take a glance to know,
Cause' I can hear the traffic as it passes slow.
They' on the other side of the window -
Checkin' out the damage, lookin' at the show.
I can hear the sirens get near.
Mama used to tell us to plug our ears.
It get's so loud and clear until every other noise disappears.

And right now I'm tryin' to block it out,
By imagining the sounds that come out' your mouth.
I saw two birds fly south,
And I thought about the day we bought that house.
Memories seem so real. just like everything that I feel.
Tried to coast on all five wheels.
I wanna cry, I keep the tears concealed.
I hear voices; footsteps.
A cops radio off to the left.
The noise made me reflect.
Somewhere along the way I must've caught my breath.
Drifting. dreaming. and then I heard somebody screaming.
But I don't even want to know the reason,
So I kept my focus on the view I'm seeing.
Started thinkin' bout the ones that's gone.
Everybody from the past that passed on.
You played your cards, had to stand strong.
But it ain't that hard to sing a sad song.
We all got scars and broken parts.
But most of the marks stay close to my heart.
Waitin' for the down-poor to start.
The rain clouds over my head got dark.
And then I saw my angel cut through the storm -
She was in a firefighter uniform.
I close my eyes so I can see some more
And for the first ever I remember bein' born.

If you can save me now,
Let's go someplace safe and sound.
I'll try not to weigh you down,
But I don't know if I can wait around.

I say ...

If you can save me now,
Let's go someplace safe and sound.
I'll try not to weigh you down,
But I don't know if I can wait around.

I say...

But I don't know if I can wait around, I say..

I'll try not to weigh you down, but I don't know if I can wait around, I say...

If you can save me now.

Something So lyrics - Atmosphere

They tell me that, I'm not qualified,
To lend my voice to something so beautiful.
Late night, awake with the stars.
Stage fright, you came so far.
No more wait, it's time to depart.
See it on my face, feel it in my heart.
Suitcase packed, put it in the car.
Took one last look at the yard, snows gone, it's never growin' back.
Rolled on with the windows cracked.
No sounds, just the breath of the draft.
Slow down; don't wreck, don't crash on a,
Road vacance, no one to pass and I'm,
So anxious, won't relax.
Clear the path, these tears I have are 'cause I can't wait to hear you laugh.
They tell me that, I'm not qualified,
To lend my voice to something so beautiful.
They tell me that, I'm not qualified,
To lend my voice, to something so beautiful.
We only get to live one time, but twice did my life stand in some sunshine.
I could lose eyesight, I could end up blind.
But I drew my design inside the bloodline.
Years go by, memories combine.
But y'all the only reason I would even rewind.
Thank you for the branch you grew on this tree.
Your first breath wasn't easy to find.
So you signified the mountain you climbed,
By lettin' out a warriors cry and it sounded like mine.
Now everybody hold up the family sign.
They tell me that I'm not qualified,
To lend my voice to something so beautiful.

My Notes lyrics - Athmosphere

I saw the sun rise, then the green grew
Weaving through the concrete cracks that we cling to
As long as I can hit my notes, I'ma
Try to keep up with my folks
I smelled rain that brought the flash flood
With a river of permanent tear drops and rap hugs
Bad luck, play with the effortless
So I backed away from quick benefits
She'd skin of those that spit venomous
Yeah that's him, he's the one that tips generous
Still trying to define my description
A life with a little spare time for living
But even if I wanna hold the position
I gotta go, like "Daddy don't know any different"
I saw the noon sky, look at the snow melt
I left most my baggage up in a hotel
As long as I can hit my notes, I'ma
Travel down that gravel road
I heard a bird cry - it was pathetic
Man, if you can fly, spread feathers like a message
As long as I can hit my notes, I'ma
Stay on top this box of soap
I felt the track slip, but didn't pull breaks
I'm half dead, but already got a full plate
As long as I can hit my notes...

Millennium Dodo 2 lyrics - Athmosphere

[Slug]
Never run of the mill when I shoot the pill
I'm a son of a spill, I've got boots to fill
Showed up with a deuce-deuce of swill
and a guardian angel on my Coupe de Ville
Shark in the lake, heart strike the drum
Mark landscape with a dart-like tongue
Spit my blood from deep in the gut
Smoking cigarette butts with my fingerless gloves
Pull over at the welcome sign
and raise a toast to those that fell behind
Everybody else got a crippled spine
from tryna take it back to a simple time
Keep a little pine tree, hang from my rearview
Beats turned up just enough not to hear you
Gonna swim till the fins get torn
I shall return, keep the engine warm

[Chorus]
Millennium Dodo
Pull out your telephone and take you a photo
You didn't know? Better read the logo
You don't wanna play around and get ocho
Recline like I don't care
The world is mine and I ain't gon' share
Now everybody blow smoke in the air
I keep my eyes on the road, but I know that you stare

[Slug]
Now I was at the party sleeping on the couch
when I decided to grab a bottle of something and bounce
I'd rather be by myself
than have to navigate another fake cry for help
On the beaten path with a bandaged fist
to represent the last half of the damn I give
Play me in slow-mo', fly like a blimp
Millennium Dodo, drive with a limp
Windows down, heater blasting
Got my coffee but I need some aspirin
Watch me merge into speeding traffic
with the truck-stop plastic, cheap sunglasses
Show respect
You broke down on the side of the road, wanna choke my neck
I've got a glovebox full of stolen checks
and I drink moonshine that the chrome reflects

[Chorus]

[Slug]
Flannel, look like a farmer
Underneath camo, look like a hunter
With that ski mask, look like a robber
Sleeping in the barn with the doctor's daughter
Got stories to wax, pour me a glass
I run with the ghosts of warriors past
South side, call it pop life
Y'all catch frostbite waiting at a stoplight
All over the map we get festive
It's a matter of class
You can tell by my lack of attractive skeptics
You just mad at my moustache
Hey girl, we'll always have Memphis
But right now, I want breakfast
With the pedal to the metal till we hit West Texas
then cross to Mexico to see my dentist

[Chorus]

Cut You Down lyrics - Atmosphere


[Slug]
My old lady say I'm paranoid
She thinks that I'm not on point
cause I pace around with no purpose
Observant, peek out the curtains
I don't recognize that car
So why's it parked right in front of my yard?
It's been there for the last few minutes
It seems too suspicious
It's gon' be another long night
So set the alarm and the motion lights
Protect my house
That fence ain't enough to keep the riffraff out
Somebody gon' test
I'm breaking out in a sweat
It make the hair on my arms all stand up tall
If it's a private number I don't answer the call
I'm simple, I want some peace
from all the criminals, thugs and thieves
And I ain't tryna involve police
cause I don't trust any government employees
I believe everybody's a threat
You better take it down to the next doorstep
But if you wan' doubt and pop some
I'm sleeping on my couch with a loaded shotgun

[Chorus]
And if you wan' fuck around
I'm gon' cut you down
And if you wan' fuck around
I'm gon' cut you down
And if you wan' fuck around

[Slug]
Shhh, I hear a helicopter
I swear it's out there
Calm down, don't make the wrong move
cause I don't know who that van belongs to
I'm checking over both my shoulders
I bet they got my name in they folders
I'm trying to stay inside
cause it's the only way to hide from the satellites in the sky
Get off my property
Why you stalking me?
And those guys from across the street
better keep they eyes off my wife piece
None of y'all are watching birds
So who's in the alley with binoculars?
Got more detour to steer through
for the sedan in my rearview
I crouch on the floor
cause knocking on my door is an act of war
And if the guy from the bank
wanna come see me, he better drive a tank
I ain't nuts yet, I'm just upset
cause y'all treat me like a suspect
I'm innocent, give me personal space
before I flip the switch and turn up the bass

[Chorus]
