Tree Monks - The Monastery Lyrics
Hello friends, we are the Tree Monks. I got a tree beard and beers gettingDrunk. Now where the leaves hung, that's where I'll be son. Til I plummetFrom a drum hit to a tree trunk. Hurt in each lung, become be calm. TrafficBacked up in the road where it leads up. Try to battle my ignorance andLearn from it, try to battle for better days on each summit.Cause I was born on the mountain top. Where down below me so many rot. AndIt taught me how small I was, but not to stop until the rest climbed up.Not to heaven ain't a place for me, but in the night when there's stars toSee. Not in the streets where the view be skewed but in the trees where theTruth can rule.(chorus)So don't call if I don't come backCause I don't know if I know the next place I'm at.And don't try to lecture me pleaseI'm waiting on the rest of me.(Nick)They sold it I bought it, They painted rocks and I copped it, Paved roadsTo God and I fought it, Came close but hopped on a rocket ship. The beautyIs scary and very skewed In various precarious views. It makes AquariusBlues, it makes hilarious news, And converting to eternity hystericallyCruel. But do you, I promise not to preach, Just please seek the roots toWho’s got the leash, And who bought beliefs and who taught the weak. WhoWent to war with who brought the peace? It’s you it’s me, it’s booze forCheap It’s everything that helps illusions breathe So release and be free.(chorus)So don't call if I don't come backCause I don't know if I know the next place I'm at.And don't try to lecture me pleaseI'm waiting on the rest of me.
