99 PERCENT


[INTRO - spoken/conversational]

Let me ask you something man.

"Go ahead, shoot."

If I wanted to hide something,
Something that you can't really hide,
Say, a truth too big to bury—
Where would I put it?

"You leave it in plain sight.
You conceal one percent
You reveal everything else.

Take that piece, hide it,
Pretend it never existed."

That can't work…no way…
Does that really work?

"Ninety-nine percent of the time it works."

And the one percent that fails—
What makes it fail?

"Good question, try and figure it out…"

[Verse 1]

They'll be searching forever,
Think they see the picture,
Don't know what's missing,
No way to know exactly
What's real and what's fiction.
Pretty soon at each others necks
All vying for the authority
Claiming they found the missing piece,
Started on the same mission,
Split into teams, now it's a bloodbath
The whole fucking scene
Trying to complete the vision,
See the whole thing.
Shattered and scattered,
The truth remains hidden, even if it's seen.
Too invested in being the one to have seen.

Icarus tried to tell us—
You don't have to reach the sun to know it's hot.
You don't need the ending to surmise the plot.
They keep you chasing, while they gut the middle,
Common ground like a memory you forgot.
Like a dog after its tail,
Whole libraries in your head
Got a lot of knowledge but
Still lost the plot.

Here's the game,
Listen up,
Oh you ain't playin'?
That's against the rules,
Already fuckin' up.
That's fine, just pay the fine.
"Really? How much?"
A hundred dollars.

Arbitrary number for an arbitrary crime,
Opting out was never an option,
You been playing this whole time.
Didn't read the terms of service?
Neither did I,
But they'll hold you to the letter
The one your parents signed.

[Verse 2]

I got more honorable mentions
Than awards and degrees,
They just forgot to mention
I left early—what they was teaching
I could learn for free.
Seem kind of silly to pay for a photocopy
When I'm getting the equivalent
Of PhD's as a hobby.

The degree is just the picture frame,
The stamp that says you're finished,
The painting stands alone,
But they won't let you hang it
Without their frame around it,
Returning what they lent you,
The frame maintains the one percent that
You will never get to.

Sound a little arrogant,
Yeah, I got a little bite,
People sound dumb nowadays,
Don't hear a word unless
It incites.
So I have your attention?
Didn't even have to take a lesson
To get that one right.

See, the knowing isn't in the having,
It's in the recognition—
You can feel the heat from here,
Don't need to complete the mission
They assigned you.

[Verse 3]

OK, OK enough with the jokes,
We came for the fire,
You just blowing smoke.
My bad, my bad, here take a toke,
Be right back I'm gonna check my notes.

Yeah, hold it in,
Now you see me now you don't.
Damn, this shit too strong,
No one there,
Been talking with ghosts.

Eyes heavy,
Wax wings lost their shape,
I never said we could escape this place,
Visions in my head but body on the ground,
Neither here nor there,
Floating on the sound.

Tear me open, write it down,
Don't remember what I've spoken,
The vessel doesn't need to hold the water
Once it's poured out,
Doesn't need to consume the ocean
Just to know what it's about—
That's how you drown.

Let the transmission move through,
Stop grasping at the whole,
The one percent they hid from you
Was permission for your soul—
To know without possessing,
To speak without the scroll,
To burn without arriving,
To be complete with the hole.

[OUTRO]
You don't have to reach the sun to know it's hot.
You already knew.
You already knew.

The Ceiling

In a dark kitchen in the middle of a sweaty night in Las Vegas, all 6’4” of Dan Reynolds is hunched over a laptop, slapping beats on the table and crooning lyrics into a tiny microphone. Before long, he and the other three members of indie rock band Imagine Dragons would be playing “It’s Time,” that same laptop-demo-turned-supersized-anthem, from the roof of a parking garage to a wave of thousands of screaming fans. This song title to the single from their 2012 debut KidInaKorner/Interscope release “Continued Silence EP” is an all too apt descriptor of the band’s hard-earned success—but it’s also emblematic of the deep-seated anxiety Reynolds and the rest of the band experienced leaving behind any realistic expectation of a normal job to do the thing they love most.

A third-generation Las Vegas native, Reynolds is no stranger to the adage “the house always wins,” choosing to pave his musical career with a near obsessive work ethic and hundreds of unused demos rather than roll the dice with the first songs that sprung from his mouth. It’s no surprise, then, that he was drawn to guitarist Wayne Sermon, another founding member of Imagine Dragons. Having practically grown up in a recording studio and graduated Berklee College of Music, Wayne had been practicing his guitar through meals and other socially inappropriate situations as long as he could remember; he challenged Dan in a way that was both uncomfortable and exactly what they both needed. When they began writing songs together and recognized something special was happening, Wayne called up his Berklee friend Ben McKee, who promptly dropped out of school with only a few credits left, moving across the country to play bass for the band. This sort of reckless/genius behavior is typical for Ben, who has an uncanny penchant for spicy food and a suitcase full of unbelievable road stories. More recently, the band was joined by drummer Daniel Platzman, another Bostonian schoolmate who seems way too nice to be playing rock and roll until you actually see him in action.

Several tours and three self-released EPs later, Imagine Dragons had made a serious name for itself, particularly in the west coast circuit. Although their songs vary from nearly whimsical and light to brooding and powerful, listeners are drawn to the inherent honesty in the music. The only rule of thumb for the band, it seems, is to write from a true place; the result is songs that literally run the spectrum of human emotion. Attend a concert, and it becomes clear that the live performance of deeply personal songs has a real effect on people. And the band itself is not immune, as demonstrated when Dan literally passed out into the drum set during a finale song, sending cymbals and drum stands crashing while the rest of the band played on until the close.

Great songwriting is bound to be noticed eventually. As proof that the harder you work, the luckier you get, one of those people who noticed was Grammy winning producer Alex da Kid (Eminem, Rihanna). Alex and Dan began collaborating on projects, and soon the band had developed a relationship with Alex and his team. The alchemy resulting from Alex’s hip hop sensibilities and Imagine Dragons’ anthemic rock is nothing short of explosive. The byproduct of this creative collision is “Continued Silence,” a six song in-your-face sonic grenade that breaks musical boundaries and yet is strangely relatable by its improbably diverse audience.

Despite it all, on any given day when they aren’t on the road playing shows, you can still find Imagine Dragons huddled away in a rehearsal room somewhere, banging out song after song in search of the next perfect track. Like most things in Vegas, the band is angled at going big or going bust. For the sake of those who love great music, we hope it’s the former.

Im just a Mexican who likes Rock 
"I look outside and it was 2 hobos, and they were picking my berries"
If ya look in my reposts it’s good songs 
ANYTHING I POST IS MOST LIKELY NOT MINE
