LYRICS

Playing your stereo loud
Flaunting your taste
Blazing the space around you
With love, light and marigold sounds
Pray we live long lives
Seeking our futures out

Playing your stereo loud
Flaunting your taste
Blazing the space around you
With love, light and marigold sounds
Pray we live long lives
Seeking our futures out

Solaris
Young lion
Being of the sun
Come brighten

You’re the talk of the town
Prince of the pride
Titan of mighty sound
My highness, will you come down?
Getting a hold of
You is like clutching a cloud
But none do surround
When you come around
This bearer of lights
Wearing beams for a crown
Bringing life to the biomes
Where beings are brown
Sending pockets of solace
In equal amounts

You’re freeing us from cold seasons
There wasn’t even a hum round my place
I’m feeling a rush, a beating, a punch
The heat of the sun in my veins

Good god
My head feels hella tall
With dilated awe
Watch all of you
With eight ball eyes
Your maple light

Playing your stereo loud
Flaunting your taste
Blazing the space around you
With love, light and marigold sounds
Pray we live long lives
Seeking our futures out

When the world is still hollow of sound
Permeate the sky, pilot your light
And lay it down where
The landscape allows
Blanketing the forest
Waking up the world around

You’re freeing us from cold seasons
There wasn’t even a hum round my place
I’m feeling a rush, a beating, a punch
The heat of the sun in my veins

What you be about?
What you be about?
What you be about?
What you be about?
What you be about?
What you be about?
What you be about?
What you be about?
What you be about?
What you be about?
What you be about?
What you be about?
What you be about?
What you be about?
What you be about?

Waking up the morning with this lucid feeling
Hold it in your heart before you lose it
Keep it moving in your solitude steadily breathing
Knowing who you are and what you’re seeking
Meet me in the marigold garden shining
Sovereign in the head with your senses heightened
Yellow soul, you are so mellow-minded
Walking through and talking to these little lions

Playing your stereo loud
Flaunting your taste
Blazing the space around you
With love, light and marigold sounds
Pray we live long lives
Seeking our futures out

Playing your stereo loud
Flaunting your taste
Blazing the space around you
