Full Lyrics : Oddisee - Word To The Wise

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
