1.Welcome

Lyrics:Hexum/Martinez
Music:Hexum/Sexton

Intro:Groove as your soul sings. Spinnin' all around as we dust
a melody

Welcome to this groove you can move right
We gonna take you higher not caught in the quagmire
I can't survive on a stupid nine to five I'd rather be poor
Writing tunes livin' on a commune
Kickin' it with my brothers and significant others
Life in pursuit of only money we think it's funny
The only thing that money it could ever bring to me
Would be some gifts for my friends follow me now
Trips for my family

The only thing I love is freedom the people around me I need 'em
I'd
like to build the world a spliff but like I said I said
You could never get me interested in dreams of wealth
Myself my birthday happens to land on April twelfth whack

A Coney Island of the mind it's mine
I swipe the sweets strip the beats in the sunshine
Loco holmes I stroll because I'm thinking
A tone poem alone is love medicine then the demon
Spring revolution in my spirit here it is and I will kill with
it

Traveling head spinnin' from the medicine
Illusions fadin' out an comin' on again
unwind your mind then find entire minutes abstract
the tract of sight day breaking in it
doles out my share of the world ocean and sun
Rising with whirling motion

I fought kicked and screamed my way to getting born now I feel
Warm and I say come on the night won't save anyone
won't you roam
We've grown so we can write again our soul select its own way
for
The travellin'
we're here we're breathing and we wanna keep our
Blood running so we're gonna keep gunning till the next
homecoming
I like the boogie to the bang bang boogie say up jump the boogie
To the bang bang come on


2.Freak Out

Lyrics:Hexum/Martinez
Music:Hexum/Sexton

Let the games begin if you wanna fuck with me
You can't disturb the course of P & C & T & D & me
I'm on a mission
To set straight
The vice, the curse, the date, the gate relate
to this. I insist B it's weak to dis see I'm runna up so suckers
stick to your 40
How could I give a damn, give a damn if you approve what it's
about. I just freak out

Just guess ya'll c'mon come back slipped outta whack as the
master. Laid out the music

Death I just say fuck you, the void unknown we're thrown through
while lost in life's psychedelic trip we take
There's another more bizarre we have to make
world we have nowhere beyond
Take out the earth the bass is gone
At life's end we'll feel the calm
How strange we should be here at all

Chorus:
If you don't have someone to do it with it's not worth doin'
To all my friends, it's not the end the earth has not swallowed
me yet

Into whose womb were you woven what kin of your skin dropped you
then
Bodies cloven
Light of daybreak blinded next exit
The wild darkness forming inside it
My day wasn't promised me each death it brings reminding me we
Are rumbling through this cursed universe where death is birth
Think not but what your manifest is worth
Giving up a verse the curse occurs a thirst
To burst first breaking through the center of the universe
Slamming down on the lingo flow so jam to the bumrush single
Long ago has been become now when you find out there's no break
In the rhythm. Black anima makes my stamina stand alone disown
the cinema farewell to posing decades dozing comin up the steps
of the new
Screen rising scenes from the lost world shapes hard to tell.
Which is which as if drawn by a child holmes

Chorus
This is the heat to flush your face


3.Visit

Lyrics:Hexum/Martinez
Music:Hexum/Sexton/Mahoney/Wills

He wouldn't say he cared at all if you asked him.
You're heading for a fall brother it goes right past him.
In another world he's in another place
you know the need for speed. Is just another form of greed
but when you jones'n your brains frozen.
You're not thinkin' bout the choices you makin' you're just
rollin'.
On and on it's anybody's guess cuz no one's at the wheel at the
front of
that mess yes.

The sun's goin' down for me it's goin' down for me.
He and she are what I need yes they're what I need.
But I'm gonna buy a ticket I'm not gonna even pick it.
I heard it he said it I heard it.
But it we but it went something like.

Chorus :
Visit.
I wanna visit the world.
So now I visit the world.
With my time on this world.

Because livin' when you're hungry is a dog in an alley.
Now I mind my business cuz I'm rhymin' down in Cali.
I ain't playin' when sayin' kings of the ghetto feel they losing
ground.
Vato's goin' loco because everyone's brought down.
This is a visit then we dead fade to dust strickin'.
I'm wearing my Doc Martens cuz I'm always down for kickin'.
This my friend the city pity everywhere the enemy.
Ready or not homey stompin' everyone in front of me.

Jump up and down cus that's the 311 style.
Cruise on by the frowners float follow me now with a smile.
Looking at the ocean I say there's plenty.
Looking at the river I say there's plenty.
Chorus

Jump up and down cuz that's the 311 style.
Cruise on by the frowners float follow me now with a smile.
I got a golden ticket I'm not gonna even pick it.
I heard it he said it I heard it
but it went but it went something like.
Chorus. Chorus.


4.Paradise

Lyrics:Hexum/Martinez
Music:Hexum/Sexton/Mahoney/Wills

Everything you do it comes back to you. Whatever it may be.
If it isn't one thing rest assured that something.
Will come back and pay you for your deed
A shortcut's a self defeating means, if you cannot do it clean.
You'll never reach your reward.
And when the day is done, what you receive is the sum.
Of what you took out, from what you put in.

Times deep in a dream seem a veiled realm.
Shadows what I think and feel is real.
Times in our tribe feel the tribe when we thrive.
We have no fear of death and no fear of life.

Chorus :
I can't forget you and our version of paradise.
I can't forget you and our version of paradise.

Everything you do it comes back to you, whatever it may be.
What you did as a devil or did as an angel.
The favor returns itself somehow.
If you take my money I l buy you a drink and you'll see.
That no one rides for free.

Afraid of what I said then your mind is stricken.
I'm wearing my heart sleeveless and I'm always up for kickin?
This is my favorite city pity everywhere the enemy.
From the beginning serious history
nothing's ever given to no one. Rides for free.
From the beginning radiant energy's
music what I need to keep my sanity.

I say we fear no evolution stand up musical revolution.
Follow me now when I say we can never stop in we never give.
Cuz this is how we breathe and live.
Some of them whine and some of them bitch.
They cannot do it we never switch.
We do it for ourselves and we do it for you.
If you don't like it well I hope you do.
I've got to be honest.

Chorus. Chorus.


5.Unity

Lyrics:Hexum
Music:Hexum/Sexton

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 bitchin' 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.


6.Hydroponic

Lyrics:Hexum/Martinez
Music:Sexton

Mother nature supreme step back and dream the hydroponic scene.
Found around knocked out of bounds wound into the mind of my
stone cloud.
Taste the thinnest of oxygen rising higher a stoner cus I can
groove something.
Wrecking nothing to prove see that's in my nature.
So fresh, the vital bud of the chronic tastes of something
thicker.

Everything I eat is from the Earth, right.
I am what I eat straight up Earth, right.
Nothing but a walking sack of Earth nice to meet you how do ya
do.
Guess what. Ya you're one too.
My skin holds me in my brain moves me then boom.
I jump straight off the speaker in a form a celebration that
we're moving.
Freely disconnected I'm truly grateful I'm going back the Earth.
I'm not gonna waste life being hateful.

Chorus
Kingdom coming through ya.
Jumpin' out my skin.
The skin I'm in.
And the hydroponics?on.

Did it because we wanna toke up until it's gone an abstract
notion.
Here to connect me to the ocean.
'Cause I'm water and carbon and not much else. I felt
compunction.
Conjunction junction what's your function.
I'll be hookin' ups verbs and nouns and phrases and clauses as
to the causes.
Of misery quizzically I look to my own book hooked on trying to
fathom.
The solar systems and atom in a larger molecule called a galaxy
cool.
The milky way is where I stay.

Astronomy steppin' stompin' a pow wow I rock the mike and shake
up the ground.
And I'm a bust out like wild dandelions in fat bloom.
I'm shooting through the cosmos because I loom
you know I'm higher I'm shining brighter yes yes.
Like where water comes together with other water foamin'.
Now I'm Homin'. Like a bird soarin' right to the mood.
I'm a wildflower busting out I go boom.

Chorus.


7.My Stoney Baby

Lyrics:Hexum/Martinez
Music:Hexum

The fish who keeps on swimming.
Is the first to chill upstream.
I want your fish right by me.
That's how it has to be.
The songs I sing they don't mean a thing if you're not there to
hear it,
but then soon is the time you'll be by my side.
It's copesetic if you let it so set up and keep the down stream
down and up stream up.
Girlfriend boots & all you lookin' fresh again.
Move toward me so I can smell the sweetness of your flesh damn.
Cool down your fine self when I find my way to the wetness of
your sweet mouth.

Sweetly in every way that you treat me.
A fish story but you know it's picture perfect.
Our morning glory every time that we wake.
The morning ride is the longest ride take it.

Like this take it like that take a yin and a yang.
It's time to find the kind.
Like my man jack sprat to do down forever it's wetter.
Titillate the flow.
Can't say it any better.
Swimmin' and hummin' with a body and soul.
It's time to find the kind titillate the flow.
Swimmin' and hummin'.
Can't say it any better.
My Stoney Baby.
My Stoney Baby.

And now I'm in here with my friend ruskie.
In their house but they're not home.
If they find out what's been on.
They'll kick us out and we'll be gone.
No pool and that's not too cool.
The songs I sing they don't mean a thing. If you're not there to
hear it,
but then soon is the time you'll be by my side.
It's copesetic if you let it so set it up and keep the down
stream down and up stream up.

My stoney, my baby, swings with the groovin'. Funk the groovin'
thang whistlin'.
As I rip my rhymes.
Time and time again struttin'. And in the summertime.

So screw it strip down and be generic.
Strip down and be a passenger, strip down and be a messenger.
In askin' why I'm borI come up blank in the winter.
In askin' why I'm born I come up on when I'm on her.
My summer his summer it could be one to go down to go down.

It's time to find the kind titillate the flow.
Forever together and then I kiss.
Swimmin' and hummin' with a body and soul.
It's time to find the kind titillate the flow.
Swimmin' and hummin'.
And then I kiss.
My Stoney Baby.
My Stoney Baby.
My Stoney Baby.
My Stoney Baby.


8.Nix Hex

Lyrics:Hexum/Martinez
Music:Hexum

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 strait 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 us

I'm singing it for your mind and no
I'm singing it for your ears
Jump up and down and leave the ground and know that's why your
here
And they say down diggey down down, down diggey diggey
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 sex
Smooth yet physcodelic its called the nix hex-um

The monologue of a singalong
Las banderas de san juan piden pa
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


9.Plain

Lyrics:Hexum/Martinez
Music:Hexum

I'm in a good way on a bad day.
Thinking of a plan a way to stay on top of it.
Nailin' in I have a fit if I sit, sit doin' nothin'.
Which is what. I done so far but I carve a niche
which sits in my good things brain.
Layin' the tracks like a loco mo, spark the Jay.

Chorus :
Tabla Rosa is my brain don't mean to bug or drive you insane.
Don't have to guess just what I'm sayin if I had a point I'd say
it plain.
Dammit my brain is blank
and now I say it would be a lie if I said I was inspired
nothin' to say but that's ok..

Nod your head to this.

Messin' around, I'm not having it.
You bite the hand I put your head out.
I come to know a travesty and so sad to see.
The scene dictated frustrated former musicians.
Switching' the emphasis from art to money.
But I demand autonomy what else my friend.
I tell you what 's wrong to me the industry's ability to
manufacture stars.
They churn them out like Iwojema makes cars.
But the blame lies not with those suits for trying.
It's the sheep that keep on buying that soulless crap.
Whatever they put in front of ya.
The hysteria of America.

Nod your head to this.

Well, stress is the enemy and not a friend to me.
One thing I see is to be easy goin' throwin' down sit back.
And watch my life flowin' and knowing life is but a dream.
You can ask my home team.
Let me tell you how I seem.
My economy seems to be in words not action actually ya see yes.
I'm a tempest and I rarely rest but that's what you go to do.
If you want to be the best so I'm on a threshold so don't tell
me no.
I just flow and know I can count on my bros.

Chorus

Don't you know that the devil he's in me and God she is too.
My Yin hates my Yang, but what the fuck ya gonna do.
I choose a rocky ass path but that's how I like it.
Life's a bowl of punch go ahead and spike it.


10.Feels So Good

Lyrics:Hexum/Martinez
Music:Hexum/Sexton

Well everybodys got an opinion thats loud and unbending
I spend my time healing and mending, together
It's a question of whether live positive well i give
P-Nut joins our back, must be arthritic
Tim is from the '70's and so we live it
SA has the wisdom of a nobel laureate
I'm down for our days of glory
It's easy to do when you're up with Sexton
A rhythmatic genius, turnin' up the next one
Would you know, you're a bro, I flow in that circumstance
You'll get your chance

Becuase payback is a motherfuckin' mission
To the sharp-ass rocks slippin' on us but we rock
It comes to writing on us derision
Sendin you a voice now we're sending you a vision

And those who fought me they say they taught me everything I
know
I go awwww, when I hear that, that chit and that chat, bullshit!
So sick of me knowing everything, saying!

In your face
That's right
And it feels so good
In your face
Yeah
It feels so good

Take it to 'em bro, throw down, now say
Settin' forth a course I'm really wiggin' out
In my dome I roam, no time to doubt
Fucked up you right there while I was rhymin'
Now you're sulking in the corner, a baby crying
Hittin' up now we feelin' to rock Mars
Fuckin' up the shit, now their heads bob
We ain't new to jack swing, the groove and that
We got crazy factiffs and we all that
I don't often rock and I'm a laureate
I don't pull the punch you know I'm throwin' it
Freestyles my style on the mic and flex
You're stalkin' the mind of a punk that's next

I get retarded now that I started you know
A condition which I keep close together
Like the kind buds you know my scene
My team thinks I sing supreme, but you, the weasel,
Try to bring us down but in reality it make you look like a
clown
Too bad cause we'll be sittin' in the sun and choose a rocky ass
fast ball

In your face
That's right
And it feels so good
Choose a lock y'all
In your face
Yeah
It feels so good

Yo P-Nut, beat that thing

Won't you warm the mic Nicholas
Can't get with this my stream of conscieceness is a sea
Much like Bukowski with a rage
Speakin' to page
Beasts in the cage
Jumpin' off the stage
Divin'
Thrivin'

Strive for a better day SA
Beat back by flesh
Shattered doors braggin' fists to the sky we're feelin' high
Has to live and die

Just take a moment to have a fit once in a while
You know, you know
I do it daily and like it but that's my style, yeah, here I go

In your face
And dow your throat
And it feels so good
'fraid so
Fuck it up y'all
In you face
And down your throat
It feels so good
That's all


11.Do You Right

Lyrics:Hexum/Martinez
Music:Hexum/Sexton

Passin' the kind buds.
Kickin' back in the sand in the sun.
To be alive is lovin'.
Where the shore meets the sea.
Man I'm hummin' I'm hummin

I'm free as I stare at the sea.
And I'm not comin' down.
The world is yours once you have found.
The good is to share.
Which is elsewhere.
1
The beauty of green is where light is now broken by what it
touches. Remembering what you once had told me hit home.
And hasn't it always been so.

Chorus :
I'm free as I stare at the sea.
And I'm not comin' down.
The world is yours once you have found.
The good is to share.
Which is elsewhere.

Like I said before I'll say it once more.
Knew you would make me feel so good.
Wanna do you right.
Can't get enough.
This is the stuff
life's about and it trips me out.
Wanna do you right.

Bright mornings, days when I want so much.
I want nothing, just this life and no more.
I l come within this world
there only one for me.
She waiting, I l soon come.

Chorus

Free from the burn the burn that helps spite and Free from the
burn now baby dib your price No buzz hack, no buzz hack No buzz
hack, no buzz hack Swing the thing you bring check it out How
could you be so good to me How could you be so good to me I want
to be worth I want to be worth Buzz hack hack hack buzz Yea
swing to the thing you bring Check it out
Like I said before I'll say it once more. Knew you would make me
feel so good. Wanna do you right. Can't get enough. This is the
stuff life's about and it trips me out. Wanna do you right.


12.Fat Chance

Lyrics:Hexum/Martinez
Music:Hexum/Sexton/Mahoney/Wills

Na na na na na na Aw yea I've seen the devil and the devil is
coke Not down like that cuz it ain't a fuckin joke Trip ther
shrooms fantastic Shit gets drasctic I didn't believe a word
Can you hear this can you hear in the Make the music soothin'
your system Come on now, come on now Hear the beat so sweet I
shouldn't tell you how
Im a freak yall Im a freak yall Much love to my man Stan Thomas
Yea you say like what up to our man Eddy Offord
Eddy Offord

You know I'm ready, yes to rock steady
My name's not Betty or Teddy, but Nick
And I'm what you might call a heretic
Yes, and I am from Nebraska
My girl is satisfied, you can ask her
You know I've never visited Alaska
Huh, where the oil was spilt
That drunken captain should be killed
For polluting the sea, an atrocity
He still walks free, well
This one goes to all the birds that drown
Fuck the bullshit it's time to throw down

Fuck the bullshit it's time to throw down
Fuck the bullshit it's time to throw down
Fuck the bullshit it's time to throw down

Just fuck the bullshit and get with it
It's time to throw down and so I said it words of
Wisdom that will keep you guessing cause
I'm tired of laying and I'm tired of messing around
With all those suckers
Yes, those stupid mother fuckers
Who put down what we do
We stand alone with the group that's new
If I was a dwarf, I'd surely be Dopey
I'm a stone wheat thin you can not culture
Kick in the teeth a condescending frown
Fuck the bullshit it's time to throw down

Fuck the bullshit it's time to throw down
Fuck the bullshit it's time to throw down
Fuck the bullshit it's time to throw down

Yeah, right about now I'd like to turn the mic over to my man
SA Martinez

I am sly in the mix I am the mix master
Death and destructor, lyric conductor
Rollin with the rhythm of the rhyme I'm rollin
Tim, he leads giutar,he's got the jets
Now the b-boys rockin breakin' moves on the floor
311's stepping out and you're yellin for more
I'm hoping, I'm poetry in motion
When I fire I spray
P-Nut, the bass drum is booming
And in your mouth the rhythm is booming
P to the N to the U to the T

Just fuck the has-been's and their stupid-ass rambling
Brothers saying bullshit you can't come through with
Do it in the basement no complacence
It's time to kick the fuck in
Begin to win no sin and then
Share it, declare it in the public domain
Refrain

I'd be perfectly glad if rap was a fad but it's not
So I'd thought I'd come out with a shot
Super dumb lyrics make you think I'm a clown
I don't give a fuck it's time to throw down

Fuck the bullshit it's time to throw down
Fuck the bullshit it's time to throw down
Fuck the bullshit it's time to throw down
Fuck the bullshit it's time to throw down

That's right, knockin' them down
Nineties, all of that
