Dogtown LoveSong
Shahmen
[Intro]
Ta-da-da, ta-da-da.. ta-da-da-da..
Loving life, loving life, live a long life
Loving life, loving life, live a long life
Loving life, loving life, live a long life
Loving life..

[Verse 1: Bless]
Don't sleep, not a wink, save them Z's for later
I've been meditating, writing, burning packs of papers
Catch the sunset from my roof above the equator
Alley behind the beach with the dogtown neighbors
A salty ocean breeze blows through my shower windows
Pull my spliff up off the window seal and hit it eyes closed
As if time froze the lotus flower in my stomach finally unfolds
All the burden and worry give what the day holds
Turn to certainty hurry to get my bankroll
Put my mom up in a house that's been paid for
Love's supreme but money is the main goal
Give my family everything that they want for
Every man gotta work, who you work for?
I'm just talking to myself, that's who I work for
To be honest sometimes he's a jerk though
Damn...
I wish I was an Indian, storyteller or shaman or just a fisherman
Thousand years before Europe had entered in
But irony my grandma's my German kin
Blood is thick a lot thicker than the skin it's in
I'm all alone and I'm falling back in love again
[Hook]
All alone, but I'm in love again, love again
Yeah I'm falling back in love again, love again
Loving life I'm in love again, love again
Yeah I'm falling back in love again, love again
Yeah I'm all up in the love again, love again
Yeah I'm falling back in love again, love again
Loving life I'm in love again, love again
Yeah I'm falling back in love again, love again

[Verse 2: Bless]
I've been searching for my searching just to search for more
Round the globe made a home at every open door
Belly butterflies floating down the corridor
Life is beauty and serenity plus gore and whore
Combination is strange I find it hard to ignore
It's been 10 years now I've travelling for
I was 18 years old walking through the Paris streets
All the African niggas trying to speak French to me
Back in Amsterdam at 20 found my Dutch family
Out in Cape town I got treated like I was the king
In Thailand I swam in oceans I had only dreamed
Imagine standing on a black sand beach
On the western tip of Africa as I passed you trees
And we just laughed that we've done all these things
Vacay to L.A. met the girl of my dreams
Riding a movie, getting lost inbetween
Move back to Venice beach front crib rented
Where I'm writing to you now from a world that I invented
Heart been mended by the art that I attempted
Long after I'm gone my lost songs still spinning like..
