DJ Shadow - Seein' Thangs Lyrics






I hear voices whisper tell me, "Banner kill yo'self"
Man I call on the Lord, pain doesn't easy from wealth
These cars, these clothes, these hoes
Never meant nothing, having nightmares screaming and busting
At my enemy, I put a bullet in that nigga and I see it's me
Is it my soul?, killing self hate
Or does that nigga in me have to die before I reach them pearly gates
Either way I got something to say
Jam Master Jay used to yell walk this way
But it's hard to walk like a man the industry's..
And these the same motherfuckers that's controlling my cash'
And the same ones, the government, controlling your ass
Why George bush ain't in jail for stealing them votes?
Why the CIA ain't closed man, for pushing that dope?
Get it cracking America, the CIA, aka the KKK
It's judgement day!

Seein', seein' thangs, I can swear that I'm seein' thangs
Seein', seein' thangs, I can swear that I'm seein' thangs
Seein', seein' thangs, I can swear that I'm seein' thangs
They coming for your soul, they already got the chains...

In a Chevy, I'm wondering if the Feds broke the levy
Are they in with the devil to control the weather?
Hurricanes and typhoons every other week
While po' folks are drowning in the middle of the street
We too scared to speak, or too busy on the internet
I heard they about to put lo-jacks in our kids necks
Marshall law, tell Bush now we ain't ready to flip
The hood is like a modern slave ship
We packed like sardines and shackled to the streets
And crack is cotton that grows up from the concrete
Shit, but I guess I'm seein' thangs
We'd rather not learn, we'd rather fucking gang bang

Seein', seein' thangs, I can swear that I'm seein' thangs
Seein', seein' thangs, I can swear that I'm seein' thangs
Seein', seein' thangs, I can swear that I'm seein' thangs
They coming for your soul, they already got the chains...

    You cannot understand DJ Shadow's greatness, so don't even try you will just look foolish.

    And for the record, Banner is talking about serious subject matter. Don't let the music or how the music sounds deter you and detract you from that in the first place. No one is putting this on MTV, if your the type of person concerned with selling-out or the etiquette that surrounds it, this song and artists shouldn't be and isn't apart of one of those types of things. What it is , is good music. I could very much say your the stagnant one.

  20. s.... ....

    @Baxxter101
    I hate reading comments such as yours or even thinking about responding to them, but i had to bring about something to combat your words. I have to say it...DON'T BE A HATER, OPEN YOUR MIND brah!!! It's too stressful to be that way, you can still like what you like without letting or seeing such music or other things bother you. Because, people will always like hip hop the way they do and don't give a hoot about what others are doing or the money that drives them to do it.

  21. s.... ....

    @Baxxter101
    Also, to keep in mind is the cultural importance of different/diverse sounds and music that particularly come out of different/diverse areas or parts of the world. Shadow is from the Bay Area, there they have myriads of eclectic sounds of music that are special to them, and IS hip-hop or whatever else to them in THEIR OWN WAY. This song is just one of them, it's art. The outsider album is full of different unique artists from that area.

  22. s.... ....

    @Baxxter101
    Banner even shared and briefly spoke out against the music industry in his speech in where you also allude to it with words like "bland" or "amoeba". Even think about why he named the album that this song is included in "the Outsider". DJ Shadow's musicianalistic integrity is irrelevant and isn't the question. But unfortunately, unfairly, people will still ridicule, scrutinize, ostracize others prejudicely and ignorantly for such things.

  23. s.... ....

    @Baxxter101
    "keep it moving"? You want him to repeat "endtroducing" over and over again? It might bring about visions of hip-pop music, but everyone knows why such music sounds the way it does in the mainstream-market . how many different types of rock music are there or music types with endless sub-genres? And to each his/her own has its own passion and love. Why do you think David Banner says "Shadow you got some nuts for this one baby" at 0:08?

  24. 1.... ....

    Would be a good song.... If it didn't ft. David Banner... haha

  25. K.... ....

    dude needs to lose the lame Raider hat

  26. A.... I....

    new theme song to 'Treme'

  27. B.... ....

    For some reason I am doubting DJ Shadows involvement in the production of this bland stereotypical attempt at emulating mainstream rap...

    Listen brah, I have some advice. If you want to get respect, drop the played out approach... three6 played this sound out well over a decade ago.

    Keep it moving... You sound like an amoeba stuck in a stagnate pool...

  28. R.... M....

    A phat beat and dynamic performance by David Banner--great song, odd video. Thanks for the upload.
