eli youngblood - the hills are burning lyrics

[chorus]
the hills are burnin’
the hills are burnin’ down
shining mountain
it’s burnin’ to the ground
wind and fire, i feel it all around
’cause the hills are burnin’
the hills are burnin’ down

[verse 1]
this ain’t a tale for the fairies
it ain’t a little house on the prairie
picket fence, grow old, and get buried
this ain’t no place to go and get married
i’m back in it, bright lights and fast livin’
night life, i’m back chasin’ these bad women
who wanna do me?
heard you wanna school me
i never learned, baby, i’ll take you to class with me
all hail the american dream
but i’m afraid that la ain’t what it seems
believin’ fantasies, fairytales, and fables
and gettin’ rich quick still thinkin’ it’s stable
what’s the price of your soul?
i been wonderin’ what’s the price of your soul?
movie star life, so enticed by the role
you give away the control, sell your rights for a goal
splendor, abundance, dollar, cash, excess
a shame integrity can’t match success
a city of angels sleepin’ with demons
listen to me ’cause i have to confess
’cause everybody wanna be right but not righteous
everybody wanna live life but live lifeless
city can’t sleep and the hills are burnin’
it’s a twenty+first century american crisis, uh
[refrain]
are you movin’, movin’, movin’?
are you movin’ fast?
the way you do it, do it, do it
you know you could crash
it’s a movie, movie, movie
we just movie cast
so move it, move it, move it
baby, hit that dash

[chorus]
the hills are burnin’
the hills are burnin’ down
shining mountain is burning to the ground
wind and fire, i feel it all down
’cause the hills are burnin’
the hills are burnin’ down

[verse 2]
burn, baby, burn
fifteen years, i never did learn
the hills were burnin’ and i wasn’t concerned
you reap what you sow, you make what you earn
in rat races, you been stagnatin’
chasin’ fat raises, you’re never gone get
my life is fast pace but it’s never gone slip
cup is so full but it’s never gone tip
in a land of lawless
conman and convicts
in love with brunettes
but i dance with blonde chicks
paradox, contrast, and conflict
the palisades burnin’, like a bomb hit, uh
no sugar, it’s the motified truth
how do you grow old when they glorify youth?
now she seventy+two but goin’ on twenty
and he went broke from actin’ like he got money
when you get enough bands
the world is bland color
a girl at your hand
you know that you can’t love her
now it’s 2am in the back of a van
what’s your name, m’am?
oh wait, it’s your grandmother
got a fresh face from the plastic surgeon
lookin’ like a whole contrastin’ person
chillin’ with rappers in black suburbans
this the lifestyle, pullin’ back the curtains
don’t got no god
you your own god
but vanity, your idol, look at your nose job
praises, what you do for the co+sign?
chasin’ after feelings you won’t find
so get your money ’till the river run dry
so get punani, ’till they quiver and cry
the path to h+ll is gold, silver, and white
life your life until you shrivel and die
[chorus]
the hills are burnin’
the hills are burnin’ down
shining mountain is burning to the ground
wind and fire, i feel it all down
’cause the hills are burnin’
the hills are burnin’ down
