STEVE AOKI LYRICS
album: "Neon Future II" (2015)
Time Capsule (Intro)
Travel through a millennium histories like a time capsule
Watching as empires come and go
Legacy's being built and destroyed, built and destroyed
And built again
The future transcend through time is to find purpose
To create, illuminate beyond dimensions, beyond boundaries
And see what we cannot see, explore the unexplored
To forge this new future, our neon future
Neon future

I Love It When You Cry (Moxoki)
(with Moxie Raia)
Feels like you're a world away
As we're lying in this bed together
How you gonna say nothin'
Baby you can stay this numb forever
Hit it from the back, do me like that
Boy that really ain't enough
Something to say, popping and no pain
It's sexy when you're choking up
I love it when you cry
It shows that you're alive
I love it when you cry
The tears bring out your eyes
Oh, oh, the tears bring out your eyes
The tears bring out your eyes
Baby when you say my name
Say it like you really, really want it
I want you to feel again
Soldier boy don't be so diamond hearted
Hit it from the back, do me like that
Boy that really ain't enough (That really ain't enough)
Something to say, popping and no pain
It's sexy when you're choking up
I love it when you cry
It shows that you're alive
I love it when you cry
The tears bring out your eyes
Oh, oh, the tears bring out your eyes
The tears bring out your eyes

Youth Dem (Turn Up)
(feat. Snoop Lion)
Hey, hey, the youth dem, ey ey, hey, Snoop Lion
She wanna be my mind never make it through the youth dem
The youth dem, they watching so be careful how you do them
I said the youth dem, the youth dem, they know it, it don't matter you can't fool them
Them youth dem just wanna turn up, turn up, just wanna turn up
Turn up, suga, shots, turn up
I'm back again, I'm happening, it's your favourite rapper friend
Though I'd never rap again, I changed my style and mastered it
Life is what you make it and I just left your make up
And I feel right at home cause I been smoking my Jamacian
Said it's time again the rapper's it
Yeah and I'm from outter excellence
No substitute for intelligence, no room for embellishments
I run the game like I'm referee, for 20 years still rapping it
Yes lord, them youth dem just wanna turn up, turn up
Just wanna turn up
Turn up, suga, shots
The youth dem, the youth dem, they watching so be careful how you do them
I said the youth dem, the youth dem, they know it, it don't matter you can't fool them
Them youth dem just wanna turn up, turn up
One time for my first time, and my last time cause I ain't felt this good in a long time

Hysteria
(feat. Matthew Koma)
Tighten your harness to the storm
Channel your waves to chase me once more
Carry on, carry on, carry on
Your honor is sleeping with the saints
We are alive and loving the stakes
Carry on, carry on, carry on
[Chorus x2:]
Open your mind to the light of hysteria
Chasing the high, never find your hysteria
Open your eyes in the light of hysteria
I know you feel it
I am the risk you need to take
The guilt on your conscience and your jailbait
Carry on, carry on, carry on
So I'll be the taxi you can hail
The head on a coin you toss to make bail
Carry on, carry on, carry on
[Chorus x2:]
Open your mind to the light of hysteria
Chasing the high, never find your hysteria
Open your eyes in the light of hysteria
I know you feel it

Darker Than Blood
(feat. Linkin Park)
Don't you hold your breath
Cause I'm not coming down
The battlefields have left me only scars
And floating in the dark
I'm swimming in the sound
Of voices that should never been apart
[Chorus:]
Darker than the blood
Higher than the sun
This is not the end
You are not the only one
With venom on their tongues
They paint it on the walls
Where justice doesn't have the strength to hold
The higher that they climb
The harder they will fall
And we will break their bones until they fall
[Chorus:]
Darker than the blood
Higher than the sun
This is not the end
You are not the only one
Ah, oh
[x8]
Darker than the blood (Darker than the blood)
Higher than the sun (Higher than the sun)
This is not the end (This is not the end)
You are not the only one (You are not the only one)
This is not the end
(You are not the only one)
You are not the only one
(Higher than the sun)
(This is not the end)
This is not the end
(You are not the only one)
You are not the only one

Lightning Strikes
(with NERVO & Tony Junior)
In you
I lose myself looking for help
In you, not like before
Like no one else, like no one else
I can't contain these burning lights will find you
And I can't fight it
Lightning, lightning strikes, strikes, strikes
Lightning, lightning strikes
Strikes
It's you
You're like a drug I can't give up
It's you, my mind and soul
Tell me where you're from cause I know what else
I can't contain these burning lights will find you
And I can't fight it
Lightning, lightning strikes, strikes, strikes
Lightning, lightning strikes
Strikes

Tars (Interlude)
(feat. Kip Thorne)
This isn't the end of neon future, it's just the beginning
The beginning of our shared future, of humanity's future
This century, to Mars, Europa and Titan
Three centuries hence beyond Pluto
To proximous entirii, towsetty and Liza 832
Three millennia hence beyond our galaxy
To amdromida and M82
And a hundred millennia hence beyond our universe
Our neon future

Home We'll Go (Take My Hand)
(with Walk off the Earth)
Don't let your head hang low
You've seen the darkest skies I know
Let your heart run child like horses in the wild
So take my hand and home we'll go
The sun it glows like gold
Feeling warm as a burning coal
Let your soul shine bright like diamonds in the sky
So take my hand and home we'll go
Home we'll go, home we'll go
Home we'll go, home we'll go
Home we'll go, home we'll go
Home we'll go, home we'll go
Don't let your head hang low
You've seen the darkest skies I know
Let your heart run child like horses in the wild
So take my hand and home we'll go
The sun it glows like gold
Feeling warm as a burning coal
Let your soul shine bright like diamonds in the sky
So take my hand and home we'll go
Home we'll go, home we'll go
Home we'll go, home we'll go
Home we'll go, home we'll go
Home we'll go, home we'll go
Don't let your head hang low
You've seen the darkest skies I know
Let your heart run child like horses in the wild
So take my hand and home we'll go
Home we'll go, home we'll go
Home we'll go, home we'll go
Home we'll go, home we'll go
Home we'll go, home we'll go

Heaven On Earth
(feat. Sherry St. Germain)
If you're facing out and you're a hologram
And the hardest part was following
I don't know what you got on me
I don't know where to go but everywhere
I am the one who's comes running to
This time we're gonna give it all away
Head through the clouds, there's a buzzing sky
And there's this word your love shines like
What it feels like, yes it feels like
Yes it feels like, heaven on earth
And it feels like heaven on earth
Traveling across the universe
Traveling across, traveling across
Traveling across the universe, the universe
If you're facing out and you're a hologram
And the hardest part was following
I don't know what you got on me
I don't know where to go but everywhere
I am the one who's comes running to
This time we're gonna give it all away
Head through the clouds, there's a buzzing sky
And there's this word your love shines like
What it feels like, what it feels like
What it feels like, yes it feels like
Yes it feels like heaven on earth
And it feels like heaven on earth
Traveling across the universe
And it feels like heaven on earth
Traveling across the universe
I don't know what you got on me
I don't know where to go but everywhere
I am the one who's comes running to
This time we're gonna give it all away

Holding Up The World
(feat. Harrison & Albin Myers)
I'm holding up the world, I won't let you fall
I won't let you break, I'll pay for your mistakes
I'm holding up the world, you won't feel a thing
I can take the burn blistering my skin
Holding up the world, the walls are crashing down
Nothing really matters but I see clearly now
I won't let it go, long as I still breathe
I'm spreading out my wings, I'm holding up the world
I'm holding up the world, I'm holding up the world
1, 2, 3, woo
I'm holding up the world, I'll learn to love again
I'm holding up the world, my tears will make the rain never be the same
I'm holding up the world, I won't make a sound
I'd do it all for you, never going down
Holding up the world, sweat and tears and fight
Angels I see coming, why follow the night?
I won't let it go, long as I still breathe
I'm spreading out my wings, I'm holding up the world
I'm holding up the world, I'm holding up the world
1, 2, 3, woo
You and me, we're holding up the world
Holding up the world, holding up the world
You and me, we're holding up the world
Holding up the world, holding up the world

Light Years
(feat. Rivers Cuomo)
Light years we've come to call upon you now
We can see you standing in the crowd
Light years we've come to call upon you now
We can see you standing in the crowd
Light years we've come to call upon you now
We can see you standing in the crowd
Light years we've come to call upon you now
We can see you standing in the crowd
Lights years, lights years, lights years, lights years
To call upon you now
We are making contact, calling from the stars
And you know who we are
We are making contact, calling from the stars
And you know who we are
To call upon you now, to call upon you now, to call upon you now
Light years we've come to call upon you now
We can see you standing in the crowd
Light years we've come to call upon you now
We can see you standing in the crowd
We are making contact, calling from the stars
And you know who we are
We are making contact, calling from the stars
And you know who we are

(feat. J.J. Abrams)
The neon future is entirely unpredictable, except for one thing
And before you know it, the neon future will be the past
