Electrify - Beastie Boys

Clap tracks line the spaces places papers people stack

Back track through the minutes when the thoughts went insane

I pulled the picture off the cover and blew out the mind games

People say this is the playlist of the void non-bound

But I can say this is the plainness of the peace I’ve found

It’s not the sorrow or the pity that we hope to dismantle

It’s the cast of past dice lighting both ends of the candles

Scandelescent in the means I have dreamed on the schemes

Reunited in the times of such picturesque scenes

Can I get a witness to testify

Open your eyes realize electrify

Electrify

So I plan and I scam and write it off on my taxes

It’s times like these I’ll just go with the decisions of the masses

And to the crowds who’ve come before with their profit massing ways

To the greed that fucked it up and brought it down to today

With pain I stand sane and remain holding strong

Whilst all around me those who clowned me are now drowning by the throngs

It’s illogical the actions that are typically displayed

A set back ain’t all that much problem to invade

So I will glow like a lantern on a new moon night

I’ll fight violence with these hands that weren’t built to fight

But like a furnace burning coal my goals are bound to burn in flames

Whether achieved or dismantled by the agendas displayed

Can I get a witness to testify?

Open your eyes realize electrify

Electrify
