Now Playing Week 16: Dub FX - So are you

in #nowplaying7 years ago

Hello friends and family!

Life has been a bit stressful for the past couple of weeks, so I'm really glad to be kind of "on track again" soon, for now I like to share some great music with you guys.

I've been listening to Dub FX for years now, and he never fails to make me move my feet and think about life as itself. I put the lyrics down below; I hope you like it!

Enjoy and have a great day :)

[Hook]
Ooh, if I only ever knew
I’m trapped in my mind and trapped in a zoo
Ooh, if I only ever knew
And so are you
Ooh, if we only ever knew
We're trapped in our minds and trapped in a zoo
Ooh, if we only ever knew

[Verse 1]
Here we come with the roughest and toughest high grade sensimilla pumping through our lungs and veins
Never gonna stop till the end of our days
Setting up sound systems with bass for your face
Console shooting out frequency
Full of loops and beats and symmetry
The rooms getting filled with chemistry
Oh let it be, do you see all the energy?
So we keep on moving at a rocksteady pace
We know you gonna want it if you have a little taste
Loosen up your neck and your back and your waist
Feel your self lift as you float into space
Twisting your mind so quick-a-ly
Sonically and telepathically
We’re kissing goodbye to the gravity
Oh let it be, do you feel all the energy?

[Hook]
Ooh, if I only ever knew
I’m trapped in my mind and trapped in a zoo
Ooh, if I only ever knew
And so are you
Ooh, if we only ever knew
We're trapped in our minds and trapped in a zoo
Ooh, if we only ever knew

[Verse 2]
Western youth be in trouble cause they’re not playing rough
So I try to start a fire with a riddim that’s tough
We need a revolution but we can’t get enough
Of YouTube, FaceBook, InstaGram and that stuff
We need more social activity
Physically in this reality
There's too much digital calamity
Oh let us be what we need for prosperity
But we keep on using up more than we need
And we build on slavery, power, and greed
And I weep every time that I watch TV
So I focus on my Jing and my Shen and my Chi
Soaking up pure infinity
Kundalini shakti for energy
We’re kissing goodbye to negativity
Oh let it be, just free your mentality

[Hook]
I said ooh, if I only ever knew
I’m trapped in my mind and trapped in a zoo
Ooh, if I only ever knew
And so are you
Ooh, if we only ever knew
We're trapped in our minds and trapped in a zoo
Ooh, if we only ever knew

[Bridge]
We are all chosen, we are all golden
We are all chosen, we are all golden, right
We are all chosen, uh, we are all golden, alright
We are all chosen, ya know, we are all golden, one more time
We are all chosen

[Hook]
Ooh, if I only ever knew
I’m trapped in my mind and trapped in a zoo
Ooh, if I only ever knew
And so are you
Ooh, if we only ever knew
We're trapped in our minds and trapped in a zoo
Ooh, if we only ever knew

love

Kind of weird seeing Dub FX starring in such a "professionally shot" video... I'll forever see this guy like the hobo street performer was.

Loved that video though, kinda makes me want to jump around some scaffolding now.

The lyrics are on spot, a life like his provides some decent wisdom along the way.

Always love Dub FX work! Hope you're doing better now!

yeah, same! I do, thank you :) if all goes well I have a new job soon.

Thanks for entering this week's #nowplaying!
