Lemon Tree - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

Rebirth, feet hit the earth, my knees hurt

They're weaker than previously, her

Breathin' seems to be burnt, like free CDs were

Before we could be searched, I'm like, "Please, just please work"

Like a lenient slave owner— that's edgy, like gravestones, oh, you get me

I save dough for a Bentley, two percent there already

I may go for a Chevy

'Cause who cares about flexin' if you ain't holdin' it heavy?

Uh, I've been tryin' to prove to all of the people I knew who didn't like what I do

Disgusted like, "Ew", yeah, this shit goes out to you, plans have now all become true

Seein' 'em through, man, that's the reason I do all of the things that I do

It's not for a crew, not for a god or a demon, I've really been needin' a clue

Fillin' these shoes, readin' these pieces and news, damn, this shit really is screwed

It gives me the blues whenever I'm shielding my eyes from the darkness and don't get a view, uh

But if ignorance is really bliss, then why this ignorance be killin’ kids?

And why this ignorance that's clearly vicious is not given shit and ends up innocent?

That shit really is ridiculous, it's magnificently fucked up

But nobody wants to tough it up, I've even seen it goin' down, it's comin' up

Like- let it go, sense of self is really all I know

But, one day it will all work out, that is all I hope, all I hope

Yeah

[Chorus]

And I do not want to go away (Ooh-ooh)

Go away from you (-Ooh)

But I know that there's no escape (Oh-oh)

No escape, from the truth (-Oh)

I guess I must show the way (Hah-ah-)

Go today will do (-Oh)

Just one thing that's so mundane (Ooh-oh-)

But so amazin' too (-Oh)

[Post-Chorus]

Yeah, just let the wind blow (Ooh-ooh-)

Yeah, just let the wind blow (-Ooh)

Yeah, open the window (Ah-ah-)

Yeah, just let the wind blow (-Ah)

Uh, let the wind blow (Ooh-ooh-)

Just let the wind blow (-Ooh)

Open the window (Hah-ah-)

Yeah (-Ah, oh)

[Verse 2]

Vaycay to the Vatican, havin' them

Good times and bad times with New Romans, do that again, well, that was when

I was so young, too young to really know fun

But so what? I guess that's what happens when you grow up

Dry your eyes and wipe your nose up

Just keep drinking till you throw up, no, we won't judge

But we all just want to be loved and somehow get validated by those we hate

Such a twisted system that we've been given to operate

I've been really thinkin' and figurin' out who's not a fake

Wash away the thoughts I made along the way, it all has changed

And now I'm lookin', it's so far away

And it's so far away

[Bridge]

Do you want to rule the world?

Or do you just want to sit there? If you want to rule the world

You should probably start right now

[?] Hi!
