1.	Summer Snow 04:11	lyrics	download
A summer day just chillin by the shoreline days like these is when I wish I had some more time and from the first signs of the sunrise I'm keepin my mind off the goodbye And when the sunsets, some rest but for others it meant the fun comes next, yeah, feelin good and the judge has surrendered nights become hard to forget, or remember Summer love is in the air but by the next morning makeshift couples they won't even care And in the winter it's different, there's warmth that needs to be filled when its all gone missin Lost in the bonfire flames with thoughts re-arranged while the process of change, it feels so near And after all the smoke is cleared I sit n wonder where to go from here Feelings just come n go Floatin on like summer snow Get it back, get it back to me Get it back, get it back to me The same people you grew up with now grow apart and new faces mean another trip back to the start You say its okay but you really meant "no" its hard to hold on, but harder to let go I need a breather from the chaos, fly away time for takeoff to shake off all the weight on my shoulders for just a minute stop n catch a cool breeze, watch a sunset image Good company is always good company sharing little stories, yeah it feels so brotherly At the same time a new chapter is being written "the next part of our lives" fits the description One breath in then one breath out A stone age therapy for home-made doubts The ashes point in the right direction I don't know what's ahead but I know where I'm headed Feelings just come n go Floatin on like summer snow Get it back, get it back to me Get it back, get it back to me

Remember nights when we all laid outside And when the sun came back at around 5 Lost track of the hours, but not time And who we are, what we done, how we crossed lives We decided skinny dippin was a true sport Cold water got us nippin hardcore Never really planned it, some call it an artform Bright ideas, they always tend to spark more Rockin Goodwill clothes brought it back in style Nights lookin like our lungs: black n mild Now I'm done with all the pullin-out-hair stress Being care-free aint being care-less Future felt buzzlightyears away Far as the stars that we'd ponder n gaze If tomorrow aint right, and yesterday left then the day in between will be hard to for.... Hey can you tell if its night or day When the moon has begun to fade and the sun will be on its way All these hours are ours And if I only knew, I'd take time and paint the stained hours to blue and these days those days aint seen the rays of the daylight, they might fade away but we Build bridges with no need for toll fees Long talks the words turn to soulspeak Warm thoughts it thaws out the cold feet For the long march that we all see All that's happened speaks more than whats said to me All the damage just forms to a better me So many people and places lie ahead of me I'll get to know the world, spark a lil chemistry We shake hands with the clock to stop and help ourselves find us And, and, we takin moments from time and now all those moments are time-less Hey can you tell if its night or day When the moon has begun to fade and the sun will be on its way All these hours are ours

[Verse 1] Touchdown in the HNL its, musubi in the air i smell its Been a while since I kicked on the isle, been a couple thousand miles from the place I'd dwell as a kid Classmates more like fam, always how it was still feels like I am and all the spots that we'd always kick it, talk alota stories, brah hard not to miss it And now Im back on the island, its that boardshort, tanktop climate Where my slippahs at? let my toes breathe, tilt my head back, feel the warm breeeeeze And with the fam closeby, gettin reacquainted with the HI and the Good vibes I like to play back, DAKINE feelin man, make me say that... [Chorus] Its all good, its all good, its all good [Verse 2] 'Shaved not crushed' is the mantra (shoutouts to Puti!) Its all good, its Hakuna Matata Island mood with the music genre, island food is the food we fond of All wit a bowl of acai, shrimp wit da rice, spam on da side, fresh shave ice Shoooots, wallet's gettin thin but still, everywhere we go is like a home-cooked meal, for realz Cruisin down the coast now, I gotta six-string in the backseat with the bros now Came for the ride, stayed cuz we can, feet in the sand, beach and a jam, keepin a plan to leave any worry behind with the wave of a hand and if its ever not okay, we'll be lookin for a way to say that its all.... "Shoots, its a much about the destination - as the journey. Life? Life is like shaved ice.... only YOU can decide what flavors to pick." - MC Takeout
