Can You Feel It?
Sublime (With Rome) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Got my head in the clouds and I can't come down
Can you feel it
Got my head in the clouds and I won't come down
Can you feel it
Got my head in the clouds and I can't come down
Can you feel it
No I won't come down
I hold my breath
Because I love the taste
And I stay happier
With the best of words that's placed to waste
And because nobody or nothing can help me for all my troubles
Except for my only one I'd escape
Traveling around the world
Finding my place
Can you feel it
Got my head in the clouds and I can't come down
Can you feel it
Got my head in the clouds and I won't come down
Can you feel it
Got my head in the clouds and I can't come down
Can you feel it
No I won't come down
Get high flying straight
And I won't come down
Get high flying straight
Oh oh oh
I'm rolling up a G6
Hit it once you wont believe this
You say your mind is racing
Well I'm just trying to help you pace it
See I be floating around space ships
All up in there where them planes is
Mixing my green with my breakfast
Waking, bakin'
I'ma roll my weed up everyday
Smoke everyday
Party everyday
Try'na reach the clouds
Are you on your way?
I'm rollin' up good you rollin' up trash
I'm burnin' them slow you burnin' them fast
You smokin' on this I'm smokin' on that
Ain't countin' them grams just go in the bag
You rollin' a blunt I'm rollin' a zag
And grindin' it up and mixin' with hash and that
Can you feel it
Got my head in the clouds and I can't come down
Can you feel it
Got my head in the clouds and I won't come down
Can you feel it
Got my head in the clouds and I can't come down
Can you feel it
No and I won't come down
And I push up weight
Because I don't like the way
Cut out a puncher
And shoved it in my face
Nobody and nothin' can tell us up in construction
'Cause we're comin' out to lay the waste
Traveling around the world
Serving the taste
Can you feel it
Got my head in the clouds and I can't come down
Can you feel it
Got my head in the clouds and I won't come down
Can you feel it
Got my head in the clouds and I can't come down
Can you feel it
No I won't come down

Thanks for the share, I totally dig this song.
...side comment:
I'm an original Sublime fan, & a Sublime With Rome fan. Of course I miss Bradly, but he went down a road we could not follow, at least not me. It sucks he died over it. I will always love and jam original Sublime.
Rome was selected by the remaining original crew. I think they made a good choice, he's got skills. Yes there are differences between styles, but they are different people. The overall vibe is still there. Just let go of any preconceptions and nitpicking for a little bit and just enjoy the music for a sec; like you once gave the original a chance. Sublime With Rome, is also cool to watch at shows. I've seen them twice now at big concerts and the energy from them and the crowd was freakin awesome.
Hope yalls day goes well, and rock on. \,,/ :)
