311 – Grassroots

Album: “Grassroots”

I flip when I kick it trippin it
So I can check s**t not in a daily style
But once in every while so I can
File check file check the files of my brain
Many of meaning manage to come from the insane
And the butcher the baker the fabulous drama maker
A cracker on a truck goin’ breaker breaker
Listen to everyone then disregard it
The meaningful s**t comes back back to where it started
In your cranium surrounded by pot like a geranuim
A capital 2 burns in my mind give me some peace
I looked at her I looked at him and neither one did know
Where the wild thoughts grow check it out

I look to absolutes and there absolutely none
The truth is what you shoot for not one
Nothing brings it all together the journeys never done
I’d sing you Stormy Weather but it’s been sung so
Let’s have some fun
Three Eleven hass grass roots
Challenge comes and goes and there will be another
I say bring it on
The roots that grow underground are as big as the tree
That you see if not it will fall down
We waste so many moments standing on convention
The only survey is when our heart pays no attention

Move with persistence cover much distance
Knowing no perdition that’s my game for instance
Three Eleven true to no tradition
And the Three Eleven crew not dow with convention
But a hundred different people already told what we about
So I make not attempt to try and suss the stupid out
I’d turned into a roughneck that was not my intention
It doesn’t even really matter unless I fail to mention that
Peace to all crews that want some peace
First the Mid then the West then we slide through the East
A piece to any crew that want a peice
But peace to all crews that want peace
Check it out

311 – Right Now

Album: “Unity”

And I, I notice the tapestries on the wall as well
And I, I stand up and hit my head on the mobile
And you, you look around too
And we, time passes easily

I’ve opened up my mind
So you can step inside
You can expect to find
A scenic ride

Pointyhead pizzeria perfect penetration
Mezcal cuts off my brain communication
Belligerence, lost my intelligence
Talkin mess like shut up and listen to me
Because cuttin’ through the crap is my specialty
Like a bomb I’m droppin yes a ton a lead
You’re tryin’ to figure out the last thing I said
I’m a Redwood, I love to be a tree yes I’m a Druid
My words they’re flowin’ out like a fluid
Never give in never conform
I’ll be bustin out rhymes in a triplet form
Right Now

In another room, I sit and contemplate
That winter night, my words were filled with hate
In second sight, I should have known my fate
But it’s allright, now we’re in a different state

[Chorus]

Expiate, to make amends for hostilities
It’s easy to see that for me, in reality
I’m not one of those fools
With an ecclesiastical whitewash
To set my ethical standards
You’ll never catch me lookin’ to Ann Landers
Or M**es or the law or even Buddha
If there’s one thing I know
It’s always be true to myself
And learn from experience
Educated by nights of violence, trips to jail,
Broken knuckles and friendships
But that gives me the power to write a groove that rips
Right Now
I Am

311 – Unity

Album: “Unity”

Even if I cared to try I couldn’t please them.
Their petty complaints, stupid restraints ain’t gonna work.
It’s all to cheese and regret, don’t fret, just push it away.
And say I’m like the wind, relentless and irritating.
A position that I think worth stating.

Swing I’m doin’ my thing.
Groove I’m showin’ and provin’.
That maverick deal that makes you feel ill.
It runs in my family.
Fussin’ and cussin’ and b**chin’ and kickin’.
If you ask me I think that you’re just chicken to try,
don’t pretend you’re my friend.
Remember I said it one day you’ll regret it.

Oh God I can’t believe it.
You have asked and so you shall receive it in the ear.
Victory draws near but no fear my dear. I’ll be here another year.
What’s it all about I scan a new plan for the next year
In nineties try these you wanna just bust out.
I cool out and I’m done bein’ mad. To just know hate well that’s so sad.
What a life, strife. Backfire and your face know your place come on like.
Word, they come like a herd but they said.
We’d drop like a led zeppelin in your face.
But that’s nothin’ home team. I ain’t got to my ace in the whole yet,
bet that I will. Get my fill, get my thrill.
We’ll be back one day and we’ll try not to spite.
But until then you stay out of my sight.
Oh, God, I can’t believe it this groove’s so dope.
I’m about to have a fit and here’s a flash. I freaked so hard I got whiplash.
And when it comes to writing stay away from our stash.

Swing I’m doin’ my thing.
Groove I’m showin’ and provin’.
That maverick deal that makes you feel ill.
It runs in our family.
Stoppin’ and goin’ and lyin’ and trying’.
My brain is on fire it feels like I’m flying
through space. Yes doing my best but it’ll get better this much I confess.

Oh God I can’t believe it but when this era’s through I’ll say that’s it.
Edification will take place.
Pull up the reigns. And get out of the race.

My bros are down for the Unity.
311 is down for the Unity.
Unanimity of the Unity.

311 – Slinky

Album: “Unity”

I was at this club minding my tea
I saw this pretty young thing so I thought that I would see
I don’t smoke but I asked her for a cigarette
I know it’s lame but I haven’t got a better one yet
She danced so fine, I will gladly admit
She grinds divine, but I still cannot forget

That slinky girl is in my brain
Now I’ll never be the same
No one can ever see
What that slinky girl means to me

So I’ll just pretend
But I feel like

Mackadocious she’s sweet and precocious
She’s the one girl that I just dig, love, yes I’m not above this
You think that’s wack then bro you lack
You bore me that macho crap makes me snore, see, me,
I’m all about the females, the women, the jewels of this world
Those flowers like that slinky girl

That slinky girl is in my brain
Now I’ll never be the same
No one can ever see
What that slinky girl means to me

Well I met her one night I’d seen her before
She stole my brain then showed me the door
Girls that do me like that there’s not many
But I’ve met one, that’s plenty
I’m glad to say that she gets her way
She can move me and that’s okay
Has the power to turn paper inky
The girl has me and she’s so

That slinky girl is in my brain
Now I’ll never be the same
No one can ever see
What that slinky girl means to me

311 – Nix Hex

Album: “Hydroponic”

Story time
Sways away the haze
They spent contemplating, formulating, theory siring above me swimming
Pay tribute to the few we look up to
Come again
You my soul fool
Who will know us but our brothers
Those who down with us are thinking
New school, tip top, pound the feeble
Walking and talking
Low down and evil
Follow me now
Yo Vato
The nix hex is on

Would everybody just look at the hook
I took it straight from my brain
Reminds me of the time I was insane
And so I wrote it when I was loaded
And voted the least likely to turn out like a square

I’m singing it for your mind and know
I’m singing it for your ears
Jump up and down and leave the ground and know that’s why you’re here
And they say down diggy down down, down diggy diggy down,stronger, longer
Line up your ways of know what I’m thinking say it again

And now I’m with my home team back with a good seat
I gladwick like chadwick to tell you what I mean
Were laying back on it just like good s*x
Smooth yet psychedelic its called the nix hex-um

The monologue of a singalong
Las banderas de san juan piden pa ??
“I’m feelin’ fine, lord it’s time”?? Go tell it on a mountain,
then again bring a friend
You’ll maybe get dizzy with a scence of vertigo

Uplifted soul from the view that I’m on nothin’ but love
But love
But love in my blood sonic in the vortex
This is the hip thing
Called the nix hex
Dig it
