Atmosphere - The Arrival lyrics
[Atmosphere - The Arrival lyrics]
I'm not really supposed to
Talk about thisbut
(They've arrived) with the excitement
Of a newborn came to join the main event and
Fight against the luke warm
(They've arrived) with nothing but their
Word and they history
Take a can of paint and
Try to decorate their dignity
(They've arrived) it's not
What they anticipated
Fuck, it doesn't matter put your
Fists up and instigate it
(They've arrived) and they can't
Save the planet
Or the children, or the pandas
Or themselves goddamn it
I'm just a man that loved rap
So much in fact I put every piece
Of myself inside these fucking tracks
What is that
You whisper something from the back
You think your personal attacks make
Up for what you lack
I'm just a cat searching for
A clean lap to crash in a world hurting
Waiting for their turn to take a nap
Sorting through the bills, fan mail
And life threats
Wondering why the postman ain't
Delivered my wife yet
(They've arrived) they call me Sean
This is Anthony no need to act hard cause
We got extended family
So I smile while I try to use my words wise
Say what I meant
Just in case this is your first time
(They've arrived) ooh child are
The wings tired
Smilin' like a couple of fools
That the Queen hired
(They've arrived) can't wait for
The vibrate to thicken
So we can watch the world's hips gyrate
(They've arrived) even the
Dead's getting live
It's a little deeper, you
Can float, c'mon baby, dive
(They've arrived) to fall in
Love with this bitch
From the petals on her flower to
The pimples on her tit's
Fuck the insults and fuck the compliments
Just wanna see the mommy free
The honesty and common sense
Stop followin' the wind that you swallow
Cause it's too simple to aim for
A target sittin' on a fence
(They've arrived) we do it for
The candle in the sky
Here's a toast goes out to those
Who can't handle their high
You and I, we can swim into the tide
And watch these other children lose they mind
(I'm doing fine)
(They've arrived) and they landed
Safe and sound
Better try to take em out before
They make your saviors proud
(They've arrived) so fix the beef
Quit actin' like a sheep
Either spit your speak or sit
There and grit your teeth
(They've arrived) to spread the info
To the kin folk
Fuckin with the climate on the
Inside of the windows
(They've arrived) they're here
The baby farmer gonna take it farther
Make a mark and break apart your fake martyrs
Planted firm, let the planet burn
Understand the terms
You don't wanna open up this can of worms
I'm tryin' to keep my prize on the eyeball
But people wanna see you fly
All to watch the sky fall
Who's to blame for your lack of conviction
I wasn't drafted, I asked for the mission
Put your name on the list at
The bottom on an empty line
And hold in plain sight whatever gave
You the right to question mine
The night prowler
Gonna crawl past all the rap politics
You can put that on your last dollar
Wake up, it's bigger than a pay stub
There's the door, get your money
Go wash off your make-up
(They've arrived) and they don't
Need your lovin'
If you don't wanna give it, keep it
Doesn't really mean nothin'
(They've arrived) gonna beat it
Til it stops breathin'
No need to even try to even reason with
They're not leavin'
Talk about thisbut
(They've arrived) with the excitement
Of a newborn came to join the main event and
Fight against the luke warm
(They've arrived) with nothing but their
Word and they history
