Amber
Lyrics:

Brainstorm, take me away from the norm’
I’ve got to tell you something
This phenomenon, I had to put it in a song
And it goes like

Whoa, amber is the color of your energy
Whoa, shades of gold display naturally
You want to know what brings me here
You glide through my head, blind to fear
And I know I

amber is the color of your energy
shades of gold display naturally

Whoa, amber is the color of your energy
Whoa, shades of gold display naturally

You live too far away
Your voice rings like a bell anyway
Don’t give up your independence
Unless it feels alright
Nothing good comes easily
Sometimes you’ve got to fight

Whoa, amber is the color of your energy
Whoa, shades of gold display naturally
Lost a thousand ships in my heart so easy
Still it’s fine from afar
And you know that

Whoa
Brainstorm
Take me away from the norm’
Whoa
I’ve got to tell you something

Rebelution released “Feeling Alright” on their album Courage To Grow in 2007!

Rebelution
Feeling Alright
Lyrics:

We’re feeling alright, yeah
We’re feeling good, we’re feelin alright, yeah yeah yeah

Oh it’s about that time for us
To look around and meet somebody new
Well let’s all welcome in familiar faces, perhaps somebody who
Has a conflict in their life, oh alright
Tell them you’re sorry but there’s ways to change the wrong to right

See we can sit in a distant haze
And watch rain clouds pour thoughts of greatness
To help our troubles sail real far away, oh yeah

Well it’s a struggle, every day we’re stressin’
But what’s a life without dedication
I’m, I’m gonna pick up that soul’s intention
To soak in music relaxation

We’re feeling good, we’re feeling alright, yeah
We’re feeling good, we’re feeling alright, yeah
We’re feeling good, we’re feeling alright, yeah
We’re feeling good, we’re feeling alright, yeah yeah yeah

In a moment I’ll be on my way
To better days, while life is changing
And even though I’ve had my share of pain
I’ve been sympathizing and realizing
I’ve got a feeling we could be a better friend
Simply complementing every now and then
‘Cause in the morning I wake up and miss the night before
‘Cause I love the music more and more

Yeah we can sit in a distant haze
And watch rain clouds pour thoughts of greatness
To help our troubles sail real far away, oh yeah

Well it’s a struggle, every day we’re stressing
What’s a life without dedication
I’m, I’m trying to pick up that soul’s intention
To soak in music relaxation

We’re feeling good, we’re feeling alright, yeah
We’re feeling good, we’re feeling alright, yeah
We’re feeling good, we’re feeling alright, yeah
We’re feeling good, we’re feeling alright, yeah yeah yeah

Sublime | Badfish | 40oz. to Freedom | Lyrics | Ska Punk | Bradley Nowell | Louie Dog | 1992

Sublime released this video for their song Badfish off their album 40oz. To Freedom.

Sublime
Badfish
Lyrics:

When you grab a hold of me
Tell me that I’ll never be set free
But I’m a parasite,
Creep and crawl I step into the night.

Two pints of booze
Tell me are you a badfish too?
Are you a badfish too?
Ain’t got no money to spend
I hope the night will never end
Lord knows I’m weak
Won’t somebody get me off of this reef

Baby you’re a big blue whale
Grab the reef when all duck diving fails
I swim, but wish I’d never learned
The water’s too polluted with the germs
I dive deep when it’s ten feet overhead
Grab the reef underneath my bed (it’s underneath my bed)
Ain’t got no quarrels with God
Ain’t got no time to grow old

Lord knows I’m weak
Won’t somebody get me off of this reef
Ain’t got no quarrels with God
Ain’t got no time to get old
Lord knows I’m weak
Won’t somebody get me off of this reef
