(Chorus)
Yellow Heaven
World is yellow
Freedom, oh yeah
Feel your sorrow
5:35 and I'm living senseless
Just another homie picking on the defenceless
Don't request yet, nothing really to mention
Lookin through the mirror and I'm making a censure
Whoa, black people in the mall grease
Come around the corner and she caused me to freeze up
Ease up, watch how the world could tease us, ease us
But only GOD can please us
Hey, got my ride and my Momma's too
Show me how to roll without breakin the rules
Payin my dues, MC's droppin out choose
Decides to get with lyrical facts, don't stop
Whoa, black people dyin to shine
Everything is fine when you're losing your mind
I'm like a black alley cat, freestyle battle rap
Doesn't get better than that, is that a gat in the back?
Oh, the warrior's blood runs red through the hearts of the dead 3x
And the life you're been lookin for in the world that you live 2x
In the name, we were all born in the flame
Not the same, but under the moon on the desert plane
We roam, home, take the ?coast ghost?
I saw with my naked eye, way to close now
I was the son of a man on a mission
Who worked with his hands and brought him the former land
In the inter-land, swingin the mic like an axe
With a fear in the atmosphere, layin down tracks
Yellow Heaven
World is yellow
Freedom, oh yeah
Feel your sorrow
Just another homie picking on the defenceless
Don't request yet, nothing really to mention
Lookin through the mirror and I'm making a censure
Whoa, black people in the mall grease
Come around the corner and she caused me to freeze up
Ease up, watch how the world could tease us, ease us
But only GOD can please us
Hey, got my ride and my Momma's too
Show me how to roll without breakin the rules
Payin my dues, MC's droppin out choose
Decides to get with lyrical facts, don't stop
Whoa, black people dyin to shine
Everything is fine when you're losing your mind
I'm like a black alley cat, freestyle battle rap
Doesn't get better than that, is that a gat in the back?
And the life you're been lookin for in the world that you live 2x
In the name, we were all born in the flame
Not the same, but under the moon on the desert plane
We roam, home, take the ?coast ghost?
I saw with my naked eye, way to close now
I was the son of a man on a mission
Who worked with his hands and brought him the former land
In the inter-land, swingin the mic like an axe
With a fear in the atmosphere, layin down tracks

"Oh, the warrior's blood runs red through the hearts of the dead 3x" It's actually this: "The valkery's blood runs red through the hearts of the dead. Oh, the warrior's blood runs red through the hearts of the dead. The valkery's blood runs red through the hearts of the dead."
Could be wrong but i think he says "World is a ghetto" as opposed to "yellow"
I love Sam Roberts in this. Excellent song. At the first, sounds like it's "mellow heaven" but that's just what I hear.
this is definatley my favourite song on the album, cus it has my two favourite canadian artists ever.
if you listen to the acoustic version on youtube ( on late late show) he switches b/t saying the world is a ghetto/yellow
Bob Dylan and Bob Marley.
When I first heard this, I thought it was a Dylan song - and then the mellow, reggae chorus "tasted" like Marley. I love this song.
is kevin drew on the chorus too?
