Foster the People — Pay the Man Remix

[Intro: JID & Mark Foster] Tell me what's your name, it was nice to meet you (What you need? What you need?) Gather all your things and you're ready to go (What you need, man? What you need?) Nice to meet you, it's oh so sweet (What you need? What you need, man?) (What you need?) [Verse 1: JID] Look I had a reoccurring dream really teasing my mind A search for a better purpose to be perfectly in line A serpent is walking, a surface is swerving; it's spewing lies I find, I'm watching my belt, I'm wasting my time I swung high off the sky, from a tree to the vine To land on my feet, devious but dealing with pride I need a... I need a breather to catch up on my second wind and speed up Running from Hell, a speed demon A cell, a key jingling, jingling, jingling, a gun, bang bang They bang, you slain, insane, they playing they game I've been praying for things money could never buy Like live and die as a man, a coward dies a thousand times I'm outta sight and outta mind, I'm outta mind but don't mind it Salvaging the silence 'til the cavalries arriving Balancing a climate moving forward, looking up and then behind us If you love me I can lead you where the light is [Chorus: Mark Foster] Save what you love, it's alright Don't be afraid to find your light Embrace the day at night We're here to fight, we on the wild again And you have the name of someone I love You said, just keep it true, lift up your name Seasons change, you know it'll never be the same We'll see the sun again And before it fades I just wanna say that I love you, mmm [Verse 2: Saba] Pay the man, pay the man (Pay the man) Look, mm Run from my past like I run track, it's traumatic My palace is Polamalu, I'm grounded like getting sacked I race demons like Nascar, no assistance like Nascar One step forward, two steps back watch when I'm at war [Interlude: Mark Foster & Saba] And when it's raining We're sailing (At war) Oh yeah, we're sailing We're sailing I'm off the leash I go to war for peace [Verse 3: Saba] I sleep with an eye open like I'm monocular I'm the opposite of a carper with carpal tunnel Ain't never took a handout, no tunnel vision to it got my planned route Like a cockroach in an ant farm I'ma stand out Clock'll tick like a doggy dancing for foggy lantern How I look for light when recording stanza, you know the answers Uncharted area, the pressures no better medley Yet here I am, falling right where blind man led me [Chorus: Mark Foster] Save what you love, it's alright Don't be afraid to find your light Embrace the day at night We're here to fight, we on the wild again And you have the name of someone I love You said, just keep it true, lift up your name Seasons change, you know it'll never be the same We'll see the sun again And before it fades I just wanna say that I love you, mmm [Bridge: Mark Foster] (Pay the man, pay the man, pay the man) Pay the man, you got to pay the man Pay the man, got to pay the man, pay the man Well, I was laughing real hard until my teeth fell out Laughing real hard until my teeth fell out Was laughing real hard but my teeth fell out Need a little something Need a little something (A little something, little something, little something) [Chorus: Mark Foster] You said, just keep it true, lift up your name Seasons change, you know it'll never be the same We'll see the sun again And before it fades I just wanna say that I love you, mmm [Outro: Mark Foster] Can't you see? Can't see me Can't see me, can't see me Yeah, can't see me, can't see me We all run when the light comes on Am I wrong for wanting it all? But I warned you, mmm
