Hive

Coming like a nightmare, word, like I'm gonna go for it

Fuckin' around, and what ya got to show for it?

Let it be known that I'm in the zone

And whatever I need, I just pick up the phone

'Cause I'm true with it, you're new with it

I just swing the thing and then I'm through with it

I don't need friends to act like foes

'Cause I'm Nick Hexum, the one who knows about things

'Cause it takes two, and we swings better than you

Then it's time for the dub, and we roll to the club

And you know just what I do, I'm hitting in the freak mode

Puttin' on a load, sippin' on a Guinny

Then lo and behold, una vision go from bottom to top

And I just can't stop, uh

311 show them the air is rarified

You don't give a damn 'cause the groove is hellafied

Grew up punk, listening to funk

I'm a hyper type of fella that does not touch junk

You're the back of the pack and the bottom of the stack

That's what you get when you're steady talkin' shit

Not goin' for self, that shit is on the shelf

It's '95 and we go for the hive

Listen up this, you're gonna bump to this

And if I'm feelin' mean, I'm gonna clutch my fist

Now when I say mean, I mean I'm gonna rock it

You're gonna find out, kid, I'm 'bout to shock it

When I'm on, I'm gone, I hear the beat that spawns

The way we freak it, and we kick up a storm

The day we turn to pop, the show will stop

So, feel the beat and get lost, now

Back to part two, the hard way we play

Sublime on time, to all the fans, I'm SA

And if you don't know, I say check the show

Do what you got to on the dance floor

Some say the style is wack, but I say, "Fuck that"

Get the hell back and watch us rock the set

We cast the mold, bust it cold, explode

Mega trend-setters known around the globe (Come on)

Friends takin' you where you never been

We done what we wanted craftin' poems

You can rock, there is a glow around you

Lose control, Holmes, just like we do (Uh)

Hard to obtain, brotha', what's my name?

Mad to find unlike ya mama and your masquerade

I drive a Mach-1, no dashboard Jesus

I hear voices say, "That's Doug Martinez"

You're all up in my mix like fuckin' Betty Crocker

You think you're playing me, but actually you're a jocker

You bad mouth me, bitch, man, you givin' me juice

It ain't nothin' but a party, everybody get loose

Notice what I don't do when stress steps to me

Whatever your complaint, so sue me

I say fuck the naysayers, and keep goin'

Gotta do what I gotta do to get the people glowin'

So let everybody gather, the more, the better

I represent the traveler, him, he's a shredder

At ease with yourself and don't try to please me

I'm just here today then quickly, I'm out

On the town, one light, I'm a glow worm

For several hours wiggle jiggle like I'm a huge sperm

Can't appreciate a brother's love of funky music

You think I'm a silly rabbit 'cause my style has tricks

Of the way I feel now I just got to rock

The music be poppin' through me like electric shocks

I think and blink and I wink, but that shit's not tiny

'Cause in a blink of an eyelash you will not find me

Oh, you're the back of the pack and the bottom of the stack

That's what you get when you're steady talkin' shit

Not goin' for self, that shit is on the shelf

It's '95 and we go for the hive
