MATISYAHU

"Chameleon"

feat. Salt Cathedral

[Chorus: Matisyahu]
Like a chameleon
Shedding my coat
Shedding my skin
All the places I've been
Like a chameleon
Shedding my coat, yeah
Like a chameleon
Shedding my coat
Shedding my skin
All the places I've been
All the places I've been

[Verse 1: Matisyahu]
Climbin' a mountain like Hercules
Slip sliding away I don't stray I come sick wit this
Hit or miss, it's ridiculous
Practice makes perf, I suggest that you stick with this
Interest with an inner twist
Attractive like perfume, the scent seems to stick with us
People are starin' and smile like they ticklish
Lyrics come quick for these fickle pricks
Just a little bit a tension
That's how it gets my attention
While some busy pretending
Inventing new ways, exceed my inventions

[Verse 2: Matisyahu]
See, fan going, racket in the kitchen
Lit a lickle spliff when the temper start itchin'
Hot like these buns out the oven I be lovin'
Tougher than nails but the tough stay broken
Chokin' on a bone to the dome straight bitchin'
Never got rich but perspective is missing
Blew up real quick '06 I left the prison
And never since I've been a fucking musician
Been up on my mission, I never lost the vision
My hair went white like crystallized
Hymns and such that you sing when you sing win intention
Singin' with the one, get it done, did I mention
Never throw the wrench in, all the apprehension
Turn the evil eye, invert it and let the light in
Illuminate the evil 'till dem heart get sizzlin'
I built this - let it turn to ruin

[Chorus: Matisyahu]
Like a chameleon
Shedding my coat
Shedding my skin
All the places I've been
Like a chameleon
Shedding my coat, yeah

[Bridge: Salt Cathdral]
I've been shedding my skin
All the places I've been
I've been finding a new high
In the constant removal
In the process, I sway
Find myself on the way
Age is under my skin
I'm eternally youthful

[Chorus: Salt Cathedral]
Like a chameleon
Shedding my coat
Shedding my skin
All the places I've been
Like a chameleon
Shedding my coat, yeah

[Outro: Matisyahu]
All the places I've been
