Dawn Of The Dreads Lyrics - 3 Years 5 Months & 2 Days In The Life Of-- - Arrested Development

Yo man, hit me with one of those funky baselines 

One baseline at a time 

The sun takes a bow for a day well lit 

Next act is night with an audience of brothers and sisters 

Havin' a celebration of sorts 

Meetin' one another, hopin' soon to be lovers 

Sisters have always fascinated me 

The many shades, the many sizes and features 

Such a wide variety of African women 

Sometimes leaves me frustrated and speechless 

I try not to admire what I can't obtain or have 

Things beyond my reach, don't exist to speech 

Seein' how I'm a bit shorter than the average man 

I patiently wait for someone I can reach 

Many sisters don't understand my style 

I live my life in an outcast tribe 

A tribe that strives to see a brighter day 

I foresee that I'll walk with closed eyes, until dawn 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Rejection is a fear of mine, for one reason or another 

But I still asked for a date with this woman 

She said, "No", I said ,"Oh" 

I forgot there's a gap between the richer and the poorer po' 

Slowly, all the shades, sizes and features 

Became less different and more the same 

Except a certain female with all new features 

But I knew not her name 

By this time the sun was preparin' 

For another appearance, the sky was pure red 

The night grabbed the moon and soon 

The darkness, yeah, was almost dead 

The sky now is orange and the night 

Has left the stage with curtains open wide 

And the bright sun yawns to signify a glorious bright new day 

The glorious day that I would meet, who? Dawn 

The natural dread also of the outcast tribe 

Knowledgeable enough to understand my style 

And as we kiss in the name of rejection 

The sky looks at us and warmly smiles 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads 

Yeah, the dread symbolizes the natural growth 

Of not just the hair, but also of the mind 

And also the bond that keeps us in love 

The struggle enhances that bond, throughout time 

When I see her, I see life 

The vast scope of life in her eyes of no wrong 

Faith plays a big ass part, I'm still kinda young 

But I could feel, I could really run with dawn 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the, dawn of the, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads 

It's a brand new song by Arrested Development 

Entitled 'Dawn Of The Dreads', I hope you enjoy it 

But all you can do now is put both feet up in the air 

And swing 'em back and forth to the music, thank you 

I say, dawn of the dreads 

I say, dawn of the dreads 

I say, dawn of the dreads 

Dawn of the dreads
