Текст песни 30 For 18 - Thelonius

The time when you're young
When you're having fun
Is so fleeting
Then all of sudden
Responsibilities stack up
You have to pay bills
You have obligations
You have so much
That you have to think about
For so many people
There's this period of their life
Where they look back to whimsically
Like that was the time
When I was free

Yeah
Yeah
The-The-Thelonius

Ain't it beautiful, suppressed emotions
From a prophet turned thug like Pac's poetry in motion
Sike, I'm just another Heathen
At the feet of Black Jesus
Another Pontius Pilate responsible for the treason
But Judas was the reason
He passed along a pattern
To envy your brothers' ring
So do you really love Saturn?
Cuz all of us were never destined to ascend with stars
Some of us alienated jealousy on Mars
But who they are I wouldn't know
I wasn't listed on the flyer
But I still made an appearance to every show
The brotherhood this thing of ours
I'm down to ride like it was mine ain't no rental cars
Institutionalized inside of them prison yards
Or maybe metal bars, cage full of mental scars
Either way, the doubters we don't need 'em
So draw your second chance
From the inspirations of freedom
Opponents we could see 'em
If we wipe the windshields full of mud
They sever the peace treaty
When you Cripple a Blood
They provoke the culture's stomach
Throwing up for the set
But America's gang gang
Look at how they treat the vets
Old warriors turned into new burdens
Old traumas of war, new versions
They hated it when Cassius was calm
When he told the world
He ain't got qualms with Viet Nam
I father the same energy
Shall I teach my daughters
Show friendliness to an enemy
Please, even Nemo would hide behind the anemone
Underwater diving for unforgettable memories
Oceanic synergy
Deeper than a connection
With the captor and a slave
It's death over the bondage
so I slip beneath the waves
Yeah
It's death over the bondage
so I slip beneath the waves

Yeah

It's 30 for 18
It's 30 for 18
It's 30 for 18
This one's for The A-Team
This one's for The A-Team
This one's for The A-Team
I'm working on a theme
I'm working on a theme
I'm working on a theme
I don't know what they mean
I don't know what they mean
I don't know what they mean
Nah

18 years I'm still pursuing this
They ask me how I'm still doing this
It's The Fountain of Youth baby
