We were traveling at the speed of light everyday
Until the world turned upside-down
Didn't know what hit us but it all stopped
I guess this shit ain't playing around
Consume the likes to feed our empty heads
This fake smile won't help me when I'm dead
I don't know where our past few weeks went
I miss the days when we would spend
Sippin' whiskey on the park bench
Rollin' j's with my best friends
Roam the city till the morning and
Some good lovin' at the end
Some Marvin Gaye to turn the groove on
A little Wonder takes the edge off
Cool it down with some Steely
Some good lovin' at the end
We're taking our time, gonna get it right
I know that living won't be easy
The things we gained, the things that we lost
Only lovin' will complete me
Higher than the sky, to outer space
Together we'll repossess that feeling
With our hands up high we'll celebrate
I get so caught up in this daily parade
Loose track of what's good and the progress that I've made
Maybe it takes crisis this big
To help us realize we're all just swimming in the same fucking tank
All of this information is just noise
Constantly changing, impossible to avoid
I'm slowly learning to compromise with the times
But all I wanna do is set this tape to rewind
We would spend all day and night chasing love
Or maybe it was lust I'm thinking of
Didn't give a fuck about wasting time
Now all I really want is some peace of mind
I'm sick of all the lies told to my face
Doing my best to control this pace
But I tend to drive myself straight to the ground
Learned from the many times that I've been down
We're taking our time, gonna get it right
I know that living won't be easy
The things we gained, the things that we lost
Only lovin' will complete me
Higher than the sky, to outer space
Together we'll repossess that feeling
With our hands up high we'll celebrate
We're taking our time, we'll be alright
I know that soon we'll all be free
The things we gained, the things that we lost
Only lovin' will complete me
Higher than the sky, stoned to the bone
I know that we all miss that feeling
But soon were gonna celebrate
