Can You Feel It
Sublime with Rome Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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

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

imdonho

Easily my favorite song on the cd.Wiz does a good job,The rhythm section aged like fine wine-love the high hat sound on this.Sublime with Rome is a celebration of the sublime music NOT a Brad vs Riome thing,Just like it or dislike it for what it is.If they come to Nashville Tn I will be there.

Darryl Hollowell

i love how chillin the beat is, the bass line is so smooth

xSequence

I think that we should all just be thankful that someone is keeping Brad's legacy going.

Matt

Damnnnn this is awesome! Rome you're doing a great thing... keeping Sublime's music alive and well. That's exactly what Bradley would have wanted. Stay up and fuck all the haters! Peace and pot dude.

V

Brad blessed us with great music, no Rome will never replace him but I think he's doing a good job of making it his own. Brad never cared about who was doing music as long as it was good music, rest in peace Brad.
