Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Now I'm sheddin' my skin ya gotta listen to me ill tell ya what I
See never believe what you read the shit is spreadin' like a disease
Never feel withdrawn time to move on get your groove on say
Goodbye everything must die solidify and fly to a new level a place where love
Is unconditional physical and non-denominational

Like a snake shed my skin leave my past where
I've been...can you feel what I feel to hold on must be killed
Don't cry over what's been spilled, can you feel what I feel?
Yeah Yeah, Yeah you! Can you feel what I feel?
Yeah Yeah, Yeah you! Can you feel what I feel?

See the kid rock bumpin' up and down
Your block with no cares long hair swingin' middle
Fingers in the air people stare n point I hit
The joint and laugh - kiss my ass, the past is

More than 10 years I've known from a complete
Unknown to the hot zone, million dollar home
And a diamond ring never thougt I'd amount to
A damn thing, I'm the man sing like Curtis

May mack on ho's like Ruby Ray, its been a
Long time comin' but you know what's happenin'...
Straight pimpin' I'm sitting five times platinum

Like a snake shed my skin leave my past where
I've been...can you feel what I feel to hold on must be killed
Don't cry over what's been spilled, can you feel what I feel?




Yeah Yeah, Yeah you! Can you feel what I feel?
Yeah Yeah, Yeah you! Can you feel what I feel? =2x
