Ivan Ave – Old Eye lyrics

[Intro: Sample] [Bob Ross's Joy of Painting]
I wanna have a light source coming out from here so we'll start with this white with a little yellow in it
Just like so
I love these little scenes where the light's coming from behind or it's coming from behind a tree or something and just
Projecting through
To me those are so beautiful
And it's unbelievable what you can do with them

[Verse 1]
Uh, put all my hurts on paper so I can grip some
Put all my dirt on the table so I don't trip on nothing
My world on tape, I could slow it down pitch it up
Words dance on the page like dyslexia
It's only right I leave behind a document
Special shoutout if you tuning in post the apocalypse
It's that rare kind of gem recorded breathin' oxygen
Scrolls of what I seen, how it felt in the moment
I seen a lot of beauty in between the omens
Seen the truth roll over my dude like a wave of lotion
I seen a homie drink the Kool-Aid potion with both hands and get programmed by the top of the totem, they got us
All [whipped?] with Orion's belt
Plutocrats pimpin' minds like they do the [glow?]
Steve Bannon made his money off of Seinfield
And now Newman got the nuclear code, so

[Hook]
This might be the last time we gon' have time
Before I get up in the memories, I'mma grab mine, yeah
This might be the last time we gon' have time
I don't know about memories, I'mma grab mine


[Verse 2]
Around the time I had those Umbro wristbands
My arms ready to reach into the unknown and grip that
My man Andy showed me something on the Discman
Planted a seed deep inside the knitted hat, fast forward
Around the time Yogisoul dropped By Nights
I felt like I could look at a rock and that shit would shine bright
By the time 'Fades recorded Warmth
All the wrong colours on the horizon couldn't get my mind right
By the time Charlotte got in the limelight
I was like if some hope don't come in soon then the tides might
Water rising, holding onto the promise that in a couple years
We gon' have that 20/20 hindsight
By the time Mohammed got into film school
Feeling good, celebrations with the crew, I could see that
Moment for what it was, knowing I miss that dude
Summer's so short man, listen to Stu

[Hook]
This might be the last time
Before I get up in the memories, I'mma grab mine, yeah
This might be the last time we gon' have time
I don't know about what memories, I'mma grab mine

[Outro: Sample] [Bob Ross]
I like these little paintings, hope you do too
They're so interesting and they're very easy to do, even for people who've never painted before
These little paintings are so nice, they're great
There, now then, maybe... once again, don't just hit it random, think about form and shape it's going on up here
Now then just blend it outward, outward, outward
But you want it to get darker and darker as it moves away from that light source
There, think about there somewhere
And already it looks like there's a glow happening back here and that's what we're looking for
And very lightly we'll brush it a little, take out the brushstrokes
Sometimes when you're doing these it's interesting if you wanna put the indication of light rays you can just pull
Don't know if you can see there but it'll make the indication of little rays of light zingin' trough the woods or wherever it happens to be
This is an excellent way to make those type of scenes
It looks like there's a glow back there, a big lantern
A few little sticks and twigs that live out here
There
Don't want these to be very dark, they'll be out here in this light
So they also will be very, very subdued so you almost can't see them
There
But we know they're there
We know they're there
