Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey now now, hey now now
I'm drifting back
Hey now now, hey now now
I'm drifting back
[Verse 2]
Dreaming 'bout the way things sound now
Write about them in my book
Worry that you can't hear me now
And feel the time I took
[Verse 3]
To help you feel this feeling
Let you ride along
Dreaming 'bout the way you feel now
When you hear my song
[Verse 4]
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
[Verse 5]
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
[Verse 6]
In my meditation
I block out all my thoughts
When they come back, I push them out
Like Jesus had a rock
[Verse 7]
They pushed in front of this cave now
They rolled across the ground
Hey now now, hey now now
They rolled across the ground
[Verse 8]
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
[Verse 9]
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
[Verse 10]
Here's how I got my mantra
Gave them thirty five bucks now
Gave it to the Maharishi
It went to the organization
[Verse 11]
Excuse my religion
Dreaming 'bout the way things feel now
Write it in my book
Blocking out all the thoughts now
[Verse 12]
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
[Verse 13]
Hey now now, hey now now
I'm drifting back
Hey now now, hey now now
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
[Verse 14]
I used to dig Picasso
I used to dig Picasso
Hey now now, hey now now
I used to dig Picasso
[Verse 15]
Then the big tech giant came along
And turned him into wallpaper
Hey now now, hey now now
I used to dig Picasso
[Verse 16]
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
[Verse 17]
Don't want my mp3
Don't want my mp3
[Verse 18]
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
[Verse 19]
When you hear my song now
You only get five percent
You used to get it all
You used to get it all
[Verse 20]
Blocking out my anger
Blocking out my thoughts
Blocking out my anger now
Blocking out my thoughts
[Verse 21]
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
[Verse 22]
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
[Verse 23]
Going to get me a hip hop haircut
Going to get a hip hop haircut
Going to get a hip hop haircut
Hey now now, hey now now
[Verse 24]
Hey now now, hey now now
Blocking out my anger
Finding my religion
I might be a Pagan
[Verse 25]
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
I'm drifting back
