Olmec: Music
The Reminder
(Olmec)
Olmec
I sit down here beside the canyon waters
And I lay back upon tall grasses
Lay my head upon a rock.
Hey now.
Sometimes, livin' up under the western world
One can forget we ever knew how to relax
Stress takes a memory and wraps it all up in web
Wraps it all up in web.
Mmhmm.
I explore this ground of mine,
I explore speed, it's like a tunnel
And it's more direct than goin' round and round and round
On the outside.
Hey now.
Sometimes living up under the outside world
One will forget we ever knew how to relax
Stress takes a memory and wraps it all up in web
Wraps it all up in web.
Mmhmm.
You know we will remember for always
That we've got the scent of sage in our nose
We've got the river bed between our toes
We play our drums with no fear
We use the sun's fire as a reminder
Of what we're supposed to do
A reminder that we've got work to do
A reminder, hey yeah,
To be the warrior with me and you.
I take my work to me with the eastern sunlight, sunlight
My work is my sunlight
It's wrapped around me body, it's in my blood
It's upon my head
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Hey now.
Sometimes livin' up under one's head
One can forget we ever knew how to relax and play
Stress takes a memory and wraps it all up in web
Wraps it all up in web.
Mmhmm.
You know we will remember for always
We've got the scent of grass in our nose
We've got the river bed between our toes
We play our drums with no fear
We use the wind's pushing always as a reminder
Of what we're suppose to do,
A reminder that we've got work to do.
A reminder
Hey yeah.
To be the warrior with me and you
Hey yeah
Be the warrior with my planet too
Hey yeah
Start the warrior as a reminder
Just a reminder
A little reminder.
