Lyrics
"Flower From The Seed"
With dangerous ways to leave my head
I think I'll play it safe instead
I've a way that gets me high
and I don't even have to try
It's a feeling I have found
and it begins here in the sound
The rhythm has me in a spell
my veins are pumping hot as hell
My foot keeps tapping to the floor
I can't stop, ?cause I need more
The motion of the melody
is flyin? through my head you see!
I flower from the seed
feel the beat and it's all I need
Music is the drug I do
Can I turn you on to the music too?
Put down that bad stuff you are doing
all it is, is future ruin
Come with me you'll see instead
we'll share the music in my head
see you dancin' on the floor
you won't need that other stuff no more!
I flower from the seed
feel the beat and it's all I need
Music is the drug I do
Can I turn you on to the music too?
I flower from the seed
feel the beat and it's all I need
Music is the drug I do
Can I turn you on to the music too?
You feel the rhythm, now let it show
Let the music in your body grow
We?ve a way that gets us high
and we don?t even have to try
It's a feeling we have found
and it begins here in the sound
We flower from the seed
feel the beat and it?s all we need
We flower from the seed
feel the beat and it?s all we need
We flower from the seed
feel the beat and it?s all we need
