Aw, shit, what, uh
You know the freaks can't handle it
We keep on searching from the seaside to the mountainside, come on
Hardly out styled and hardly outblazened
Nectar natural, completely amazing
Others more concerned with just fronting on hardness
I flow sweet with millennium niceness
I don't know if they're just scared or what
But a little sincerity would knock them on their butt
I keep my dogs at my side and I keep my shit tight
Let me tell you how I feel, all right

Y'all's radio rock ain't tough
Can't move to that, ain't deep enough
One more time, groove on the line
Chills up my spine, ready, rewind

[Chorus]
The only thing that never gets old is honesty
You'll probably be caught up fronting
The only thing you always try to be is hard
Because you're scared that someone might pull your card
The only thing that never gets played out
Is melody, I'm hearing it calling me
It's plain to see because it's all laid out

Full ride, I'm a master of technology
Livin' my life nice in pursuit of groove-ology I'm getting vibes like you checking me out
Without a doubt, I pull clout and crush crews in a rout
I'm a Doberman in any given reaction
Well mannered and reserved, yet ready for action
I let you have it all, I got nothin' to hide
Let me tell you how we comin'
We comin' what? Full what, full ride
We work it on the inside
As you'd expect, we come correct
While others just run and hide
Full ride, we work it on the inside
As you'd expect we come correct, uhh

I get the fuck up rockin' the jams, I bump disco
Playin' records all day, then let go
I'm the king of my town but when my girl is around
Parlay like the Count of Monte Cristo
So simple, the jams are in front of me
Get drunk in New York, make fun of me
When we play, it's a serious thing
To all the people who gather, here's what we bring

[Chorus]

Yeah, yeah
Full ride, we work it on the inside
As you'd expect we come correct
While others just run and hide
Full ride, we work it on the inside
As you'd expect we come correct
Yes, yes, full ride, we work it on the inside
As you'd expect we come correct
While others just run and hide
Full ride, we work it on the inside
As you'd expect we come correct, uh

    This song is about being honest with yourself and not following the "POPular" crowd just because thats what everyone else is doing. Come as you are and be yourself. But, I wish 311 would have kept being themselves and not have sold out like they did with their Evolver album and that stupid ass cure cover.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Magical

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
