Sandpeople - Beyond Us lyrics

Yea, it's like that "ah" moment, ya know?
I understand, though

Yeah, and those are proud words to say
When your eyes open wide and
Them clouds burn away
And you realize your environment's
An extension of you when it all depends on
Whether you're tuned in, so tune in
I'm human
That strong connection this grouped in
That plug is loosened, but I feel free
Life's a gamble, so who's in?
Really, I'm all in, till it's conclusion
I'm still me
I live within the confines of this human body
But escape it through the music
Don't confuse it for a hobby
It's a movement at the least
The proof is in the product
I'm truly on it


I grew from a seed into an artist
Yeah, it was a rough transition
And I'm still struggling
But what man isn't
I draw upon everybody's untapped wisdom
Delve into their mind
Free 'em and come back with 'em

It's beyond us
How can you separate life from dreams
Or trust what your eyes perceive
Anything that you or I believe is indefinite
And shouldn't put your mind at ease
It's beyond us
How can you separate life from dreams
Or trust what your eyes perceive
Anything that you or I believe is beautiful
So let it put your mind at ease

And those are proud words to say
When the sky opens wide and
The ground starts to shake
And you realize the surroundings you
Perceive to be true
Are thrown off balance by
The things you consume
The trees, the shrooms, pills, yay
That's a night on tour for me
You can't restore the faith it stole from me
Just like my paper, it's runnin' low
But I ain't broke
Still got my soul and reasons to be thankful
Proceed from every angle to make
Moves and lead by example
But follow too close and all
You'll meet is your downfall
No meetings at town hall can unify the city
It's the hatin' y'all doin'
That divide us, really
Try and feel me, Thornburg grimy, filthy
Earthworm, grown fatter than an anaconda
And I conned you
Take it where you didn't plan or want
From the pain that haunts you to way beyond

It's beyond us
How can you separate life from dreams
Or trust what your eyes perceive
Anything that you or I believe is indefinite
And shouldn't put your mind at ease
It's beyond us
How can you separate life from dreams
Or trust what your eyes perceive
Anything that you or I believe is beautiful
So let it put your mind at ease

And those are proud words to say
When you shine this eclipse
By lampshades of grey and you realize
What you thought were once
Lies were sheer truth
So how you once walked the line
Is no longer by design
I took action when my axis was denied
In case of my absence
They buried the hatchet in my spine
So I strived to stay relevant and
Keep my skeleton in line
Exhale just to let go
As I inhale the West coast at the same time
I'm grateful for the air I drink
I pay dues just to share my think
By way of old speak, no beef
Now may your stare turn blink
It's written in blood, I
Don't spare my ink, nope
So from this day forth, I'ma stay outspoken
Dawg say no more
Given you shall receive
So I present this delivery
Until the day we take the world by storm

It's beyond us
How can you separate life from dreams
Or trust what your eyes perceive
Anything that you or I believe is indefinite
And shouldn't put your mind at ease
It's beyond us
How can you separate life from dreams
Or trust what your eyes perceive
Anything that you or I believe is irrelevant

Yea, I get though, I mean
You got it all figured out right?

I know there's something beyond us
Beyond that I don't know much, nah
It's beyond me, we all think like we got a
Grasp on things that won't budge
So call it ignorance or call it ill fate
But if we stay oblivious then we feel safe
And we feel safe long as the bill's paid
See no pain, no growth, and no real change
