Lyrics

[The Dice Are Dancing] [Skit: Al Pacino (Sampled) & Matthew McConaughey (Sampled)] Oh, can't you just feel it? I have no idea what you're talkin' about, c'mon? Oh, I think you do I think you do Y'know, the best part o' the best drug in the world ain't the high? It's the moment just before you take it The dice are dancin' on the table Between now and the time they stop That's the greatest high in the world [Alive] [Intro: Purpose & Al Pacino (Sampled)] Hello, hello, let's go, man, can't you just feel it? [Verse 1: Purpose] Hard times never seemed so theatrical (Yeah) It's just the nature o' the beast, it's an animal (Uh) They try to paint it like if you dream, you're a radical (Right?) But how can just gettin' by seem so impractical (How come?) That's what happens when you're trapped in negativity Self-destructive nature and why accept it willingly? (Accept it) Restless, stress, tense and unrested Has anybody got directions? (Ba, da, da) (Hey) I'm not from around here, I'm just passin' through (Uh) No wonder they look at me like I'm from outer space Under a microscope, look at what we've become Drown it out with the music, turn the beat up I told myself that I don't need it and I believe it But when you're trapped, that's the price o' freedom (Right?) I need to feel alive You see? This is why people kill, lie, cheat and steal, to feel somethin' (ba, da, da) [Chorus: Al Pacino (Sampled)] Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, da, ba Ba, da, da can't you just feel it? Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, da, ba Ba, de, ba, de, ba, de, ba, da, ba can't you just feel it? Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, da, ba Ba, da, da can't you just feel it? Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, da, ba Ba, de, ba, de, ba, de, ba, da, ba can't you just feel it? [Bridge: Purpose] Here it comes, there it goes again Here it comes, there it goes again I see my life light up in a puff o' smoke and so I take one hit and hold it in (Ba, da, da) [Verse 2: Purpose] Excuse me while I kiss the sky We only live to die, may as well live tonight (Ba, da, da) It's plain to see that somethin' isn't right Don't ask me what's up, I couldn't tell you if I tried You see? I'm tryna get it out o' my system But it runs in my blood like alcoholism So if there's a bottle in this house, I'ma drink it And if there's a message in the bottle, I'ma miss it (Ba, da, da) [Chorus: Al Pacino (Sampled) & Purpose, & Purpose] Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, da, ba (Hey, uh) Ba, da, da can't you just feel it?! Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, da, ba (Uh, hey, uh) Ba, de, ba, de, ba, de, ba, da, ba can't you just feel it?! Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, da, ba (Hey, hey) Ba, da, da can't you just feel it?! Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, da, ba Ba, de, ba, de, ba, de, ba, da, ba can't you just feel it?! [Hook: Purpose] [?] [?] (Yeah, uh) [Verse 3: Purpose] They say the best things in life are free That may be true, but pride ain't cheap This life I lead is split up into three parts The irony is I can't fit it in sixteen bars Nowadays, I just see it as growth And push it to the side with my dreams and my hopes People I know never really see me when I'm low 'Cause I push 'em away when I need 'em the most (Yeah) I wrote that line three and a half years ago And it's even more relevant now Shit, I though I had issues then, here we go But this is my life, kid, I don't care how it sounds 'Cause see? Right or wrong, life goes on And I'm well aware o' what side o' the line I'm on Lookin' for a sign from God I just wanna know if I'm alive or not, I need to feel it [Bridge 2: Al Pacino (Sampled)] And you've just recreated the worst possible nightmare For the twentieth goddamn time And you're standin' there and ya suddenly realise Hey I'm still here I'm still breathin' (Ba, da-ba, da-) I'm still alive (-Ba, da-Ba, da, da) [Chorus: Al Pacino (Sampled) Al Pacino (Sampled) & Purpose, & Purpose] Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, da, ba (Hey) Ba, da, da can't you just feel it? Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, da, ba Ba, de, ba, de, ba, de, ba, da, ba can't you just feel it? Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, da, ba Ba, da, da can't you just feel it? Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, da, ba Ba, de, ba, de, ba, de, ba, da, ba can't you just feel it? Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, da, ba (Uh) Ba, da, da can't you just feel it?! Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, da, ba (Uh, hey, uh) Ba, de, ba, de, ba, de, ba, da, ba can't you just feel it?! Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, da, ba (I've never felt so alive! Hey, hey) Ba, da, da can't you just feel it?! Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, da, ba Ba, de, ba, de, ba, de, ba, da, ba can't you just feel it?!<\i>
