311 - You Get Worked

This is happening
This here is life
Days spent pondering truth
Is a knife
Respect due to those
Who have caught it
Dedicated to our friends
Who have sought it
This is happening
This here is life
Days spent pondering truth
Is a knife
Respect due to those
Who have caught it
Dedicated to our friends
Who have sought it

Brainstorm
Superseding the norm
When we come together
New planet is born
You revel in the chaos
When people are torn
Then you come to find out
Your welcome is worn

We are advancing and
Retracting visionaries
Really here it's not imaginary
The way
You work your mind
You find it's an art
Where you feel it most
You feel in your heart

Everybody gets confused
Delusions are everywhere
Buy into fakeness
Uou'll feel used
Double talk fills the air
Looking all over for happiness
I've got the will to live
It's in front of you right
Now don't you feel stressed
Falls through my hands
Like a sieve

CHORUS:
I'm on a new high
With a pen and a pad
And for fun I attend
A jam that's super bad
At the same time
Give it all that I have
Whether you're square
Or the coolest lad
Eatin up my people
Purgin their words
The jammies take flight
Like Icarus birds
Drop on you and
You get hurt
'Cause if you're
Under the rock
You get worked

Say, what gives
Are you after me?
Breakin' me down
Won't you let me be?
Won't be having
None of your mind control
It ain't gonna
Work on me no more
I said, what gives
Are you after me?
Breakin me down
Won't you let me be?
Won't be having
None of your mind control
It ain't gonna
Work on me no more

Whoo
Ha
You get worked

If you don't
Watch your back
People are
Scheming on you
Exploiting all the
Things you lack
They'll do what
They have to do
Your good will is
Something they'll crack
How many times
Will they bust
Your originality
They will hack
Don't know just
Who you can trust

Repeat chorus

Yeah you get worked
Yeah you get worked
Yeah you get worked
Yeah you get worked

Say, what gives
Are you after me?
Breakin' me down
Won't you let me be?
Won't be having
None of your mind control
It ain't gonna
Work on me no more
You get worked
