Oddisee - Word to the wise

Word to the wise by Oddisee Song lyrics


Running red lights 'cause there's nobody around
No one to hear my speakers, do they even make a sound?
Preaching to the choir, no one is there to see it
I don't talk about change, I just try to be it
That's word to the wise, word to the wise
That's word to the wise, word to the wise
That's word to the wise, word to the wise

You ever tried to bring some people with you
To a place you tryina get to
And all along the way get you cut and clobbering they shot
But in sticks perming to get you
And throwing at a rate that it's faster then they'll forget you
I got a couple round me surrounding this very moment
Feel now I'm in to know exactly who holds the pistol
Where here's a message for you if you're listening
I am the one that gave you the gun that's why you missing
And you can take your turn and check your engine
I gave you your start
A super monster only handed you, now go play your part
As I watch nobody all is try to roll with the art
They going nowhere, no one know us we're smart
Prolly now, 'cause you get us they messing
I'm added my own deception
Just angry 'cause we had the possession, not holding weapons
Toss that burner and no further all you from across that turn into a loss
Self-earn it, go!

Running red lights 'cause there's nobody around
No one to hear my speakers, do they even make a sound?
Preaching to the choir, no one is there to see it
I don't talk about change, I just try to be it
That's word to the wise, word to the wise
That's word to the wise, word to the wise
That's word to the wise, word to the wise

I just found a pot to piss in
A lot was missing till the options started popping
Kicked in the door like I wasn't ready for intruders
To a house made out of mirrors for glass ceiling illusions
Might have begin to tear up, might have begin to tear up
My no start to fleer up, I'm not afraid of improvement
I'm at the intersection where all the lights are green
Yet I'm only seeing red 'cause my anger's got a direction
Driving into a tree, I'm colliding right into me
And surviving it until to tell all this rhyming comes into be
It's the process ye, I do the knowledge, ye
You get the witness mind dripping for a modest fee
But your interpretation keep it to yourself though
Because how you think I'm feeling how I felt though
Try to tell me about me as if I ever doubt me
Whole time I never been without me
You see? Go!

Running red lights 'cause there's nobody around
No one to hear my speakers, do they even make a sound?
Preaching to the choir, no one is there to see it
I don't talk about change, I just try to be it
That's word to the wise, word to the wise
That's word to the wise, word to the wise
That's word to the wise, word to the wise
