Within the Trees
Alla Xul Elu Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The air is heavy
plus it fucking smells of piss
the sun is hellish
clouds of melting jellyfish
gotta find my bros
it feels like time is slow
the giant eye in the sky closed it's time to go
it seems to be the whole planets haunted
the ground keeps grunting
and cussing me for stepping on it
then boom- feels like an explosion
sounds like a locomotive in motion
too scared to run
it's some type of giant thumping
old fat and slow I can't hide or nothing
the very sound of death coming up behind me quick
tentacles outstretched
I can feel its slimy tips
then silence no murder or violence
just me in the back of my eyelids
smoke swirls around I can hear the bag laughing
before I knew what happened I was back at the cabin

What awaits within the trees
you can't escape
no you can't leave
we plant the seed
it's evil grows
even though
you shouldn't breath the smoke
we need to roll
we need to roll
we need to roll and it seems we've met
what awaits within the trees

It's horrid in this forest and I'm wanting out
I'm high as fuck still Bill
I think that oak tree is talking now
Turn around forgot the homies went their sperate ways
I'm gonna die out here
I used up all my vacation days
now fuck that shit Lee
You're a survivor
don't get raped by a tree
I'd try to start a fire but
I forgot a lighter fuck
I'm covered in spiders yuck
hallucinating from the chron that I inhaled my time is up
suprise attack claws sink into the back
a pack of rabid raccoons
they mustve smelled the fumes
tiny teeth and green eyes I'm being ate alive
by some forest creatures with horrific features
and their screaming die
my flesh they were ingesting
they danced with my intestines
I screamed and woke up on the cabin floor with the expression
I think my high is gone to end the song you should believe
heed the warning don't get lost up in the trees

What awaits within the trees
you can't escape
no you can't leave
we plant the seed
it's evil grows
even though
you shouldn't breath the smoke
we need to roll
we need to roll
we need to roll and it seems we've met
what awaits within the trees

So it seems we lost our way
within the trees in a forest of green
only stems and seeds
for as far as the yes can see
let it resonate
it's okay just breath
but trust me you'll snap uncontrolably
at least that's what happens when you roll with me
smoke blowing in the breeze
chief G's the OZ's
blaze kind when I rhyme call it poetry
in an endless maze I'm stuck
lost in search of the strain until I puff
cough gone for too long
wandering aimlessly
but I think I see the cabin how can it be
did I make it back to my friends
or is this some sort of trick in which my life ends
either way I'm done smoking bud
that's when a voice spoke up




you'll die on drugs
and at that moment I woke up

Overall Meaning

"Within the Trees" by Alla Xul Elu is a song that describes the hallucinogenic journey of a protagonist who ventures deep into a forest with his friends, smokes marijuana, and falls victim to the sinister and malevolent forces that are set within the trees. The song focuses on the singer's struggle as he tries to find his friends and escape from the forest, which seems to be haunted by unknown entities. The lyrics are filled with vivid imagery and sensory details, such as the smell of urine, the heat of the sun, the sounds of locomotives and grunting grounds, and the texture of slimy tentacles.


The central theme of the song is the dangers that lurk in the unknown corners of the world, and how even the most innocent of adventures can turn deadly in the face of the supernatural. The forest is depicted as a malevolent entity, with the trees representing not only a physical obstacle, but also a metaphorical one that illustrates how easy it is for humans to be consumed by their vices and desires. The song ends with a warning to listeners to be cautious and avoid getting lost in the trees.
