  1. Yeah

  2. Do you feel it?

  3. No, no, don't-don't answer, that was a rhetorical question

  4. Rhetorical (rhetorical)

  5. Uh

  6. Forever life been never nice, we expedite the process (yeah)

  7. And every night I get advice, 'cause life is way too complex (yep)

  8. Heaven's lights are hella bright, ironic how that came to be

  1. But can't you see? This angel speaks

  2. She's saying the place is safe for me

  3. I told her, "Wait for me," the make-believer normally disguise

  4. Transform before your eyes and glorifies euphoric highs

  5. The morning rises and I'm fast asleep

  6. Somewhere off in the master suite

  7. Having dreams of Latin queens and nasty freaks

  8. My mind, it wanders to places yonder and even farther

  9. When I'm sleepwalkin', I'm Steven Jobs or I'm Peter Parker

  10. A genius author, a Jesus preaching just to feed his daughter

  11. The weed to spark up, yeah, he's a goner, fuck these prima-donnas (woah)

  12. I'll always wonder what happened 3000 years ago

  13. I like to toy with the idea that we really know

  14. Is what I do important in the grand scheme of things?

  15. In my head these dreams are dreamt, trust me we are kings

  16. I'm wearing a blindfold, like, "Where did the time go?"

  17. I know you hear me out there, give me a sign though

  18. I'ma follow you wherever your mind goes

  19. Baby, I'ma follow you wherever your mind goes

  20. Take me away, girl, somewhere they won't be

  21. Hold me closely, look at me, don't speak

  22. Will you follow me wherever my mind goes?

  23. Said, will you follow me wherever my mind go?

  24. I'm just trying to make it all make sense

  25. As you hypothesize on how to monetize and take advantage of

  26. All the time we fall behind, get lost in this Aquarium (gone)

  27. America, the standard of vanity when the camera's up

  28. We become celebrities, distract from the hysteria

  29. Confessions that I have, the curiosity about life and death

  30. Most of us will never understand it, we just like the quest

  31. Read about the meaning of dreaming and all its messages

  32. Sedatives that take me to God, witness his fetishes (uh-huh)

  33. We all in search for substance (substance), that drugs you pain and numbness (numbness)

  34. Circumstances advancin' the second chance for this beloved

  35. I wish I could tell you that I didn't see this comin' (comin')

  36. But I'm ready for it all to end, die before tomorrow's trend (not again)

  37. Your life, it all depends on dollars spent and knowledge gained

  38. Darkness on the brain, lost inside, forgotten days (forgotten days)

  39. Life, it works in such mysterious ways (ways)

  40. All these years that I pray, hope you hear what I say, ay

  41. I'm wearin' a blindfold, like, "Where did the time go?"

  42. I know you hear me out there, give me a sign though

  43. I'ma follow you wherever your mind goes

  44. Baby, I'ma follow you wherever your mind goes

  45. Take me away, girl, somewhere they won't be

  46. Hold you closely, look at me, don't speak

  47. Will you follow me wherever my mind goes?

  48. Said, will you follow me wherever my mind go?

  49. (Wherever my mind goes)

  50. I'ma follow you wherever your mind goes

  51. (Wherever my mind goes)

  52. Will you follow me wherever my mind go?

  53. I'ma follow you wherever your mind go

  54. I'ma follow you wherever your mind go

  55. Will you follow me wherever my mind go?

  56. Will you follow me wherever my mind go?

  57. I'ma follow you wherever your mind go

  58. I'ma follow you wherever your mind go

  59. Will you follow me wherever my mind go?

  60. Will you follow me wherever my mind go?

Aquarium

Yeah

Do you feel it?

No, no, don't-don't answer, that was a rhetorical question

Rhetorical (rhetorical)

Uh

Forever life been never nice, we expedite the process (yeah)

And every night I get advice, 'cause life is way too complex (yep)

Heaven's lights are hella bright, ironic how that came to be

But can't you see? This angel speaks

She's saying the place is safe for me

I told her, "Wait for me," the make-believer normally disguise

Transform before your eyes and glorifies euphoric highs

The morning rises and I'm fast asleep

Somewhere off in the master suite

Having dreams of Latin queens and nasty freaks

My mind, it wanders to places yonder and even farther

When I'm sleepwalkin', I'm Steven Jobs or I'm Peter Parker

A genius author, a Jesus preaching just to feed his daughter

The weed to spark up, yeah, he's a goner, fuck these prima-donnas (woah)

I'll always wonder what happened 3000 years ago

I like to toy with the idea that we really know

Is what I do important in the grand scheme of things?

In my head these dreams are dreamt, trust me we are kings

I'm wearing a blindfold, like, "Where did the time go?"

I know you hear me out there, give me a sign though

I'ma follow you wherever your mind goes

Baby, I'ma follow you wherever your mind goes

Take me away, girl, somewhere they won't be

Hold me closely, look at me, don't speak

Will you follow me wherever my mind goes?

Said, will you follow me wherever my mind go?

I'm just trying to make it all make sense

As you hypothesize on how to monetize and take advantage of

All the time we fall behind, get lost in this Aquarium (gone)

America, the standard of vanity when the camera's up

We become celebrities, distract from the hysteria

Confessions that I have, the curiosity about life and death

Most of us will never understand it, we just like the quest
