[Intro – mellow dub echo]
Yeah… yeah…
Feel the breeze now…
Turn it down low… let the roots grow…
[Verse 1]
Step out the city where the concrete cries,
Trade grey skies for them emerald vibes,
Boots in the dirt, hear the leaves all talk,
No boss man here tryna time my walk.
Sun drip gold through the canopy shade,
Sweet little silence that the wild one made,
No screen glow, just the fireflies blink,
Got me living how they never want me to think.
[Pre-Chorus]
They say “work more, buy more, stay in line,”
But the river don’t rush and still it shine,
No clock tick loud in the forest deep,
Only roots that rise and the souls that keep.
[Chorus]
We just chillin’ in the sunlight glow,
Where the wild wind sing and the cool streams flow,
No chains, no stress, just a natural high,
Let the system talk while the days roll by.
Yeah we laughin’ while they push that scheme,
Tryna sell another artificial dream,
But we free in the green where the soul can breathe,
Summer in the roots got me never wanna leave.
[Verse 2]
They build them towers just to trap that mind,
Sell you back time that they stole in kind,
Say “grind all day” just to barely live,
Take more than they ever plan to give.
But I lay back low by the riverside bend,
With a rhythm so pure it don’t need pretend,
Little fire crack, hear the wood bass drop,
Nature got a groove they can never stop.
[Pre-Chorus]
They push them rules but they feel so fake,
While the earth keep turning with every wake,
No deadline set in the bird’s own song,
Just right here knowing we belong.
[Chorus]
We just chillin’ in the sunlight glow,
Where the wild wind sing and the cool streams flow,
No chains, no stress, just a natural high,
Let the system talk while the days roll by.
Yeah we laughin’ while they push that scheme,
Tryna sell another artificial dream,
But we free in the green where the soul can breathe,
Summer in the roots got me never wanna leave.
[Bridge – dub breakdown]
Echo say “consume”… but the trees say “nah,”
Wind whisper soft, “you already are,”
Not a number, not a cog, not a slave to the grind,
Just a heartbeat steady with a freeborn mind.
Let it go… let it slide…
Hear the truth in the tide…
[Verse 3 – reggae rock lift]
If they ask where I been, I say “outta their reach,”
Where the mountain and the breeze start to teach,
How to live slow down, how to feel what’s real,
Not the plastic life that they try to seal.
Got the sun on my skin and the peace in my chest,
No competition when you already blessed,
They can keep their race, I’mma walk my lane,
In a forest where the soul don’t strain.
[Final Chorus]
We just chillin’ in the sunlight glow,
Where the wild wind sing and the cool streams flow,
No chains, no stress, just a natural high,
Let the system talk while the days roll by.
Yeah we laughin’ while they push that scheme,
Tryna sell another artificial dream,
But we free in the green where the soul can breathe,
Summer in the roots got me never wanna leave.
