Just Chillin With My Pipe

DESILLUSION     (translation after the French text)
Chant : Karine 
Paroles et musique : Alain Illos 

ON SE LAISSAIT GUIDER PAR LE VENT
AU MONDE PERDU DES REVES D'ENFANT
ON REVAIT
QUE L'ARRIVÉE D'UN PERSONNAGE
QUI PARTAGERAIT SES PRINTEMPS
POURRAIT BRISER TOUS LES SERMENTS
ET QU'ON NE VERRAIT PLUS SOUVENT
LES NUAGES

ON SE LAISSAIT PORTER PAR DES ERREURS
DES MESSAGES FLOUS DE NOS RANCOEURS
ON SENTAIT
QUE LA ROUTE SERAIT COURTE MAIS BELLE
A CONDITION D'Y ACCEDER
NE FAIRE QUE DES CHOIX PERSONNEL
MONTER LES MARCHES POUR ACCEDER  
AUX NUAGES

DES FLOTS DE SENTIMENTS
DES DESILLUSIONS DES PEINES
PARFOIS UNE LUEUR SOUDAINE
NOUS PROMENE
D'UN BOUT À L'AUTRE D'UNE VIE.

Desillusion

WE LET OURSELVES BE GUIDED BY THE WIND
TO THE LOST WORLD OF CHILDHOOD DREAMS
WE REVEALED
THAT THE ARRIVAL OF A CHARACTER
WHO WOULD SHARE HER SPRINGS
COULD BREAK ALL OATHS
AND WE'D NEVER SEE
THE CLOUDS


WE'D LET OURSELVES BE CARRIED ALONG BY MISTAKES
BLURRED MESSAGES OF OUR RESENTMENTS
WE FELT
THAT THE ROAD WOULD BE SHORT BUT BEAUTIFUL
AS LONG AS WE GOT THERE
MAKING ONLY PERSONAL CHOICES
CLIMB THE STEPS TO REACH  
TO THE CLOUDS

FLOODS OF FEELINGS
DESILLUSIONS SORROWS
SOMETIMES A SUDDEN GLOW
PROMISES US
FROM ONE END OF A LIFE TO THE OTHER.

Your Feature Presentation

Cast of characters:
Surfers Like Us– @user-411502040 –Artur–composition, arrangement, and foundational rhythm guitar
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen–guitar, sitar, mix, mastering, and production
J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell – organ, electric piano, and synth
K2 and the Three [and the Four]-- @k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums and percussion
Llanpsych– @llanpsych –Tez–Guitar 
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –four string fretless bass 

This song is the brainchild of Artur, who composed it on his guitar perfectly for collaboration, and presented it to us with his vision for the entire sound. Ken went first, of course, adding his signature rocking beat to the song. I went next, as soon as Ken had laid down the drums, adding my four string fretless bass sound to fill out the rhythm section. 
  Tez came along soon after me, adding some foundational ornamentation with his guitar. JJ jumped in right after Tez, and laid in the majestic organ, riffing electric piano, and subtle synth you hear throughout. Finally, Stephen laid his guitar in there, too, which can be heard as a fiery melodic line running throughout. At Artur's suggestion, he also added some amazing, trippy sitar in a couple of spots, too.
  Once all the tracks were laid down, Stephen came through with his always skillful mix. This makes almost an album worth of material that The Eclectic Collective has created from Artur's ideas. We're always excited when he drops a new one in our laps. He wrote this on a sweet rainy day in the Polish summer. 
  We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it. 
  We all appreciate your support, and encourage you to share this song if you've read the whole way down to the bottom here.

Lyrics

They sell you the motto, go hustle, go fight,
But how can you soar when you’re grounded in flight?
They act like it's all in the work and the will,
But the deck's been stacked, it’s a hustle for real.
They sellin’ you a dream, like it’s made in a day,
But they don’t mention the price that you pay.
You climbin' a mountain that’s missin' the peak,
While they sit on the top man, talk is cheap.
You’re chasin’ the paper, and they’re printin’ the rules,
While they’re holdin' the keys, and your playin’ the fool.
It’s all a façade, but they package it nice,
You grind till you drop and they’re rollin’ the dice.

The way it’s set up, we can’t reach the top,
They throw us the crumbs while they feast from the trough.
The way it’s laid out, so few of us rise,
They give us the clouds, but they’re taking the skies.

You’re stuck in a loop, they’re ahead by design,
When they cash out, you’re still burnin' your time.
They like you to think it’s your fault when you fail,
But the system’s set up like a yacht with no sail.
For every boss, there’s a million in chains,
For every penny, somebody’s pain.
Don’t let ‘em fool you, don’t let ‘em define,
Success ain't for all in a world that’s designed,
To keep you in line while they pocket the gold,
A game is so rigged, but the story’s been told.
They set you up just to sell you a dream,
You’re runnin' in circles or so it would seem.

The way it’s set up, we can’t reach the top,
They throw us the crumbs while they feast from the trough.
The way it’s laid out, so few of us rise,
They give us the clouds, but they’re takin' the skies.
The way it’s set up, we can’t reach the top,
They throw us the crumbs while they feast from the trough.
The way it’s laid out, so few of us rise,
They give us the clouds, but they’re takin' the skies.

Wake up to the scheme, man, this story ain’t new,
They paintin' a picture, but it’s missin’ the view.
They preachin' and teachin' about riches and fame,
But nobody tells you, it’s all in the game.
You grindin’ forever, but what’s in your hands?
They’ll push you, they’ll blame you, no matter the plans.
So if you gonna' hustle, at least know the deal,
Success ain’t the same when it aint your wheel.
Why, I’m just sayin’, don’t buy their hype,
It’s a game that’s rigged, and we’re caught in the fight.
You can push all you want, but don’t be surprised,
That the systems set up, where greed gets the prize.
