Lyrics/Song Structure:
======================
----> Play Riff 1 over:
   I am a music lover, and somehow I get paid
   This song would still exist if no money were made
   That's the difference I summed it up in a sentence
   I'm sittin' here perfectly still cause I've got no place to go
   Be about two months until we light up the show, follow me now
   I sing of spring it's a marvelous thing
   What else swing the thing you bring
----> Play Chorus over:
   Yo I got to say hola
   Orange County to Angola
   I go back to the beat, it never lets me down
   Zone in and let it rola
   Yo I got to say hola
   Orange County to Angola
   I go back to the beat, it never lets me down
   Zone in and let it rola
----> Play Riff 1 (x2) over:
   I deem stream of sweat that connects me to you
   I still be all about that thing that you do
   We dip dip dive so herbalize
   I don't look over my shoulder but I know there are spies
   But than long time crew, stuck like glue
   You never let me down, always came through
   Always kept the flow, even when you didn't know
   Don't ask us, we make it up as we go
----> Play Chorus over:
   Yo I got to say hola
   Orange County to Angola
   I go back to the beat, it never lets me down
   Zone in and let it rola
   Yo I got to say hola
   Orange County to Angola
   I go back to the beat, it never lets me down
   Zone in and let it rola
----> Play Riff 3 over:
   Seems like people are the viruses and earth is simply tired of us
   So many heads what if something would give
   And kill off our race maybe diseases from space
   Arriving from a comet with a trail left for the planet
   Say the wake it created was the start of the end
   Filled with spores that were engineered, plant pathogens
   What's in the future for the view is many changes
   Humans could be in danger what would you eat to be a remainder
---> Play Riff 3 (palm muted) over:
   As your food is maimed to take you out the frame
   Some would vaporize, some would remain
   The same suckers with no cares about the wave of the world I feel
   Their lives are destined for hard times too
----> No guitar (Keyboard/Drums Only)
----> Play Riff 3 over:
   There's a parallel universe that might be blocked
   But by emotion we put into it we could unlock
   I'm not saying we could escape fate tunneling in this vast
   Untranslatable energy filled of dust and ash
   ???
   ???
   ???
   The next life is starshines
