Lyrics
YOU KNOW
music and lyrics by Joe Olivier
Time's were high, you we're fine
You left no one to see ....
You know!
On your way, to another day
Future bright, now in the light...
You know!
So take it on easy baby, watch yourself...for me.
Glad your happy, moving on
Pushing forward, going strong...
You know!
Won't you pause to take time.
Visit me in my sublime...
You know!
Mime to the meanin of a, why should I fake anotha
gripe to grip on, when you can shake anotha,
Fit you?ll lurk with,legit,
no peon boo-pro-pion , losely knit!
my capo?s on backwards, but I?ll never reseat it,
Cuz I?m Rakin? no dirt with my frets, just pickin it,
Cuz I?m rollin from the east side .. to the west
with mySuperKalifornLinguisticSpeciallyPrecocious,
With an akward pitch, mocking the rich, making them itch and twitch with my synapse glitch,
Steeper than the staircase that put me in a back brace,
these vibes are made .to put you in the higher place,
inspiring, adimiring, and just requiring
that you wipe your brow, bro, when you start prespiring,
and we?ll cheer on the new prose, that sure to expose
foes and Ceo?s while their nose grows,
rocking with yo, not meant to make you suffer,
you be the one to sing thesa-ba-a-da-da-ba-da-ba,
So do what?s right at the launching site
on this non stop flight, ignite the pilot light
