Operation Ivy - Sound System lyrics

rate me

(Chorus)

Sound system gonna bring me back up

One thing that I can depend on

Try to describe to the limit of my ability:

Its there for a second

Then it's given up what it used to be

Contained in my music somehow more than just sound

This inspiration coming and twisting things around

Because you always know that its gonna have to go

You always know that you'll be back in the cold.

Point of depatrure sublimated in a song

Its always coming to give me that hope for just a second

Then its gone but!

(Chorus)

Static pulse inside of music bringing us escape

Its always temporary changing nothing in its wake

Just a second where were leaving all this shit behind

Just a second but its leaving just this much in mind:

To resist despair that second makes you see

To resist despair because you cant change everything

To resist despair in this world is what it is to be free

(Chorus)

Wake up turn my box on

Bust the shade let the sun in

times getting tougher bout time to start runnin

Box in my hand music by my side

Skanking to the rhythm of the music by my side
