Atmosphere - Bob Seger Lyrics






[Hook]
My father's to the left of me
Move like the knight
My mama's to the right
Move the knight
Like everyone else, they're pointing
But nowhere feels quite right

[Verse 1:]
I pour a little more whiskey on them ice cubes
I’m tryna to get tipsy as a tugboat
Most of us gettin' lost in the night moves
The rest of us wanna watch from the front row
Come and look into the eyes of a landslide
Let me know if your recognize blood shot red
Not above passin' out in the cab ride
Wake me up when its time to unfuck my head
Whatchu know about a party
Y'all still tryna have some fun
Throw your hands up like it’s 2001
You wanna taste the teat, you want a place to sleep
But you need somebody else to come change the sheets
I hold composure, the snow will melt
The hope stays low cause I know myself
But I treat it like a test to keep me at my best
Rest in peace to Nekst

[Hook]

[Verse 2:]
I ain’t as cool as I used to be, leave me alone
I’m kinda blurry from the journey, man, my speakers are blown
Truthfully, I'd rather keep it in a zone
I could maneuver easily from the comfort of my home, but
Don’t ever let the headlights die
Stars only fall out of the dead night sky
The more I travel, the farther I see
The more it seems as if my shadow ain’t following me
Now everyone’s impressed with impressions
All of y'all dressed up in the finest flesh
I’m not tryin' to imply I’m on a different page
Similar traits, familiar face
I remember the days when I felt like fightin' it
Lost in the ways of my own self-righteousness
Feels like I’m still tryna find my fix
Before this lightning hits

[Hook]

  29. C.... ....

    This paints Canadians very bad lol

    C.... ....

    +ajtosoff and the cellabration this isn't about canadians it's about minnesotans

    C.... ....

    +MfPotatoeater99 "... about how the legend of Paul Bunyan began. Babe wasn't really a blue ox, it was a blue axe. but the northern accent made it sound like 'ox.' Blue from the blood of the evil Canadian soldiers. It was filmed on the northern Minnesota iron range."

    - Sean Daley
    *evil Canadian soldiers*

    C.... ....

    FUCK CANADA

  30. S.... U....

    Love the music. Love the video. Don't know WTF it's about and the explanation in the description confuses me even more.

    S.... U....

    +Space Urchin war of 1812 i think

    S.... U....

    +Space Urchin Its about the legend of Paul Bunyan, Babe was not a blue "ox" but an axe but because of the accents it was pronounced "ox" so thats how the story of Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue ox started. Supposedly the axe was blue from the blood of the canadian soldiers he killed with it. What is depicted in this video is what actually happened during those times. Soldiers would force homes to put them up, feed them etc. and more often than not the men were not home, women ended up being raped and preyed upon, the men would come home to their wives having been abused and taken advantage of. Soldiers even did things to young female (and male) children. Alot of the men forced to war were criminals in their own country and only fought in the war for freedom from the dank disgusting prisons they were in. Anyways this video is amazing and really captures what would happen during those times

  31. k.... ....

    Le grand dérangement?

  32. Y.... ....

    this is the first song I ever heard from Atmosphere and have gone to listen to most of their previous works

    Y.... ....

  34. N.... L....

    Havnt found a song to dislike by atmosphere ever and love this video more than most, I'm a larger arborist and feel the Paul character as my self

  35. J.... W....

    Hey Atmosphere, I just realized that this clip is exactly like "Just to get a rep" by GangStarr. The original has two versus. But the song with the clip has 3. What is up with that????

    J.... W....

    +Jeffrey Waqenaar wtf

    J.... W....

    Not at alike... Lol. This is about a guy who attacks to protect, but 'Just To Get a Rep' is about attacking to get a rep.

  36. J.... W....

    Why this song never made Southsiders I do not know. But boy owwww boy what a track.... The combination of music, Song and video makes it one of their best. Sharp as a tack.

  37. l.... z....

    Slug and Mike Shinoda should collaborate

    l.... z....

    leeroy zuniga ant>mike shinoda

  38. M.... K....

    I love the Genesis reference.

  39. M.... R....

    best flower ever .

  40. C.... H....

    r.i.p. NEKST

  41. M.... ....

    It isn't Paul Bunyan. This guy is a Jackpine Savage.

  42. M.... W....

    you are fucking awesome sean daily !!!

  43. J.... O....

    its hard to guard urself when u only got the cards dealt to ya.

  44. S.... ....

  45. I.... G....

    so Paul Bunyan gets revenge?

  46. S.... B....

    Hollywood nights

  47. M.... C....

    I really wish I went to their concert but sadly I was 14 at the time and my parents wouldn't let me 😢 please come back to arizona!

    M.... C....

    foreal tho he should come back to az .;)

    M.... C....

    I went to see em when they came to tucson. and GOD DAMN!! it was an amazing time. you really need to see them.

    M.... C....

    I met him at ZIA records in Vegas. Awesome of a guy.

  48. C.... G....

    English soldiers would never act such. Maybe some Germans?

    C.... G....

    HAAAAAA wow. "English Soldiers would never act like that, ... 'must be german soldiers.'"

    I encourage you to read up on some history.
    Raoe is systemic in warfare, both ancient and modern. It acts as an unparalleled method of psychological warfare. This has been known for milenia.

    C.... G....

    @Coyote Ganja Maybe not today. However, 250 years ago, rape was not uncommon during the quartering act.

    C.... G....

    @Chester Timmins straight up, read a history book, people...

    C.... G....

    @Coyote Ganja They're Canadian, well, British Canadians

    C.... G....

    @Thomas Godfrey it's clearly Paul Bunyan, which is obviously based in minnesota.

  49. T.... ....

    fucking trippy haha

  50. T.... L....

    4k likes. 83 Dislikes. Lol nuff`said.

  51. j.... g....

    You might know it takes a lot more help to guard yourself
    When you got nothing else but the cards you dealt
    I learned about sippin' on a full bottle of ripple
    Simultaneously sittin' on a whole lot of little
    You can assume we wanna brighten the room
    Like the light of the moon trying to find you
    Now open the curtain, allow the shine through
    We wanna know how the night moves

  52. J.... S....

    Can anyone recommend artist similar to Atmosphere? 

    J.... S....



    Brother Ali is da baddest albino Muslim ever!!!

    J.... S....

    +Jennifer Serrato

    check out HILLTOP HOODS XD

    J.... S....

    there's no other group like atmosphere...

    J.... S....

    +Jennifer Serrato Doomtree.

    J.... S....

    Prof, Ali, Grieves, Evidence and anyone under Ryhmesayers pretty much. And any song featuring Brother Ali is good. Ali only gets on tracks with talented artists and kills it every time. I've discovered artists just from him being on their track. like hilltop hoods.

  53. d.... ....

    The guy with the axe and beard reminds me of Hagrid from the Harry Potter series for some reason.

    d.... ....

    I was getting a paul bunyan vibe personally but it was a bull instead of an ox

    d.... ....

    +JoeLexIcon I was thinking of the dude from that channel, Sargon of Akkad. xD

    d.... ....

    @Noble Nemesis xDD

  54. C.... B....

    Evil will always exist in this world but you have the ability to give a helping hand even when one wasn't gave to you.

  55. c.... d....

    Genesis <3

  56. b.... d....

    Anyone else just want to sit and talk with artists sometimes?  So you can actually see what there really like and to relate songs and their meanings to just life in general... 

  57. R.... ....

    i think this is better if you don't watch the random video

  58. H.... D....

    Why's it called Bob Segar

  59. J.... G....

    very different from his older stuff, but its all amazing, for its own reasons. 

  60. M.... ....

    Lesson of the video, someone tries to rape your woman kill them when you have the chance

  61. S.... H....

    Hot joint

  62. R.... J....

    Atmosphere is so good live! Saw you guys last night in Hollywood, best concert ever.. Happy Birthday.

  63. q.... ....

    was this actually on a album?

    q.... ....

    Nope, just a single

  64. R.... C....

    i got part of the song tattoo on me that's how much this song kick ass lead us to the promised land atmosphere you got a fan for life (will always try to get your music)

    R.... C....

    What verse or part did you get ? & where on your body?? I love atmosphere! 8 years of listening to them every single day since I was 15(now 22), I've never had an artist that I've stuck with through so much time & I can honestly say I can see myself listening to them until the day I die. But yeah I'm curious to know which verse you got tattooed! I know I'm a stranger to you & all but I'd love to see a picture of it! Haha my bad if I sound like a creep I just have mad respect for someone who loves atmosphere so much they'd put a verse of their music on themselves in a way that will last forever. If I haven't already decided to never get a tattoo/piercings(as much as I love tattoos & think they look good on porcelain white skin like mine) I would 100% get something from atmosphere tattooed on myself, but I feel like id end up covered in atmosphere lyrics hahaha. Anyways my bad for the essay! Still would love to see your tattoo👌


    -Liv😈: With love from the city of Angels😇

    R.... C....

    Yeah i got on my right calf I did there because when ever I am working out or just happen to look down I can see it for most of the time.  But I got the verse from that song (Bob Seger) "The hope stays low cause I know myself but I treated it like a test to keep me at my best.)  I know what you mean about listen him for as long as I am live. I mean I liked him when I listen to "Sunshine" and I feel in love with this style with "The waitress". Sorry for my long response 

  65. l.... ....

    WOAH WOAH WOAH Did Slug switch up that last verse? Im pretty damn sure thats not the original.

    l.... ....

    Yes he added that last verse in the for the video im assuming. The single I bought when they dropped this last summer does not contain that last bit. haha you owe me a verse!

  66. M.... ....

    I needed a little writing inspiration, Just found it.

    Thanks Shawn.

    - Mike

  83. L.... R....

    WOOOOO!!!
    Welcome to MN!!!

  84. d.... ....

    Man I can't get enough of this track...this is the kind of Atmosphere I love.  I can't seem to find the track tho.

  85. d.... ....

    My father to the left of me, my mother to the right, like everyone else they're pointing, but nowhere feels quite right!

  86. A.... H....

    Is this suppose to be like Paul bungyin and babe the blue ox?

  91. S.... Y....

    slug and his dj for presidents :Ԁ

  92. R.... A....

    love how there are a bunch of stupid ideas of what the video for "kanye west" was about but for "bob seger" there is none at all. lol 

  93. G.... ....

    this guys voice is awful. annoying

  94. D.... H....

    MORAL OF THE STORY: Don't "mess"  with a MANS FAMILY.
    very visual
    scary....
    residual

  95. W.... ....

    A little odd to hear the words Hip Hop and Bob Seger together but this is good....really like it... For the youngsters that don't know, make sure you search for Bob Seger (the singer) on YT

  96. g.... ....

    I'm a fan of the song, it has great flow, an aight hook and background, it just feels like its old school atmosphere. I don't understand the video tho. Has nothing to do with the song, and while its interesting I don't see any correlation. 

  97. R.... ....

    awesome beat - lyrics. dope.

  98. C.... ....

    Damn this is entirely too awesome
