And we were chilling at the park Feeling like I'm Miller at the arc Killing it like Starks at The Garden Feeling myself, my self esteem can't be guarded Been on my Carmen Sandiego just got back from France And I gotta little bit of that Parisian steez in me still My knees are Grant Hill but I still feel like Phil I'm on that zen ting feel like I just won my 10th ring I'm on, I could shoot the Sun into a wedding ring From half court, it's pouring shots falling like autumn Trash talking like I'm Jordan off the back board for boredom Like it was Horse I'm calling it before I even saw it Feeling like I ain't even shoot it I just thought it Into existence, you know that feel? '04 Pistons Free will got me like me like Wilt '62 Sixers Game point, it's our check from long distance I hit the swish then I hit the spliff and kissed the misuss And it was like that And it was like that sometimes it just go like that Sometimes, sometimes yeah it just kinda go like that
And we were just sitting round sitting round at the park Said we gonna burn the tree and then we watch the fire start We are, we are nothing but some old dogs Running round in the grass Said we gonna hit the tree then hit the shot off the glass We are, we are
We crack a beer, sit back and stare I catch some air, I scratch my beard Me and the homies and we're feeling like the poor man's Cavaliers Could be anywhere in the world but I'm happy here right now A feeling that felt so right I had to write it down Standing about 5'9 " but I felt like Yao Up in the post, chilling with those close enough to know my nose hairs Cheers to all of the years that we spent in the middle of nowhere Going some place with a numb face so Sunday's come down would feel this good 6 foot 10 high, living like drift wood Thoughts flow like lawn bowls roll more joints rolled Then passed to the left like the wing of our bird flying in circles We deal out ideals like cards Share our feels like psalms avant-garde point guards We doing our best Descartes We doing our half-arse Marx We counting dying stars We talk about death, then laugh We know this shit ain't gonna last Take two puffs and then we pass There's one beer left now we're sitting in the dark Ain't no tree left to burn there ain't no question left to ask Just some old dogs sitting watching time run past In the park
And we were just sitting round sitting round at the park Said we gonna burn the tree and then we watch the fire start We are, we are nothing but some old dogs Running round in the grass Said we gonna hit the tree then hit the shot off the glass We are, we are
Well I'm livin', free spirit, so let me roam No limit, all's forgiven, let me feed my soul Well I'm livin', free spirit, so let me roam No limit, all's forgiven, let me feed my soul
All of my responsibilities (out the window) Kick the socks off and feel the breeze (you know I) Sunny days got me real at ease Only way I can feel the peace (yeah, yeah, yeah) Cause all of my frets All of my woes, all of my stress Fall off my shoulders, I'm blessed All of my close ones, come rest Follow my glow And we can link up when it's high tide Jump off on the high side King tuck when I climb Cityscapes and skylines So just disconnect your wifi Open up you eyes like You need those rays today Old dogs keep aging believe But cherish these memories They indeed won't fade away
Last night I slept in the open Down by the redwood tree Last night I slept in the open Just to let my soul be free Last night I slept in the open Down by the redwood tree
