lyrics

"Your profession is not what brings home your paycheck
your profession is what you were put on earth to do
with passion and such intensity that it becomes spiritual in calling..." - Vincent van Gogh
...calling me

Do you hear the things you're tryin to say
to yourself subconsciously every single day
is it quit your job and to find your passion
only one life to live and it's fast man
and don't take my word for it, listen to yourself
and if you like your job more power to wealth
there's plenty on this earth for everybody
everybody
You can mold it how you like it
some will say well i can't fight it
made a couple bad decisions
now I'm paying prices
yeah things aren't instantaneous
but make a plan, stick to it and think with your big cranious
when you get old you won't regret much you did
but you'll be thinkin hard about every moment you didn't live
to your full potential and i know that it's hard
there's been so many moments i wanted to give up and disregard
this calling for music i was born with so i listen
i'll never stop writing cuz it's calling me to give in
and I might be insane like van Gogh but that'll never stop me though
and you can call me crazy, but i will never know

Your profession is not what brings home your paycheck
your profession is what you were put on earth to do
with passion and such intensity that it becomes spiritual in calling......calling me

I don't even need to describe, the reason I was put on this earth
it's not for me to decide, I cant control all these words
that i'm feelin insidebut I know that I found a few that will make a few people inspired
Inspiration is the game that I play
I hear it, callin me from the booth out to the stage
I wanna decicate this to the people makin paint
makin clothes, makin custom photos, I dont know man
I dont really understand
dedication in my hand - in my heart I keep my fam
I do this for the fans truly though
it wasn't fair of me to hold all of this in before
but the real truth, I really didn't know
I didn't know the music was gonna open and flow
I didn't know I could change a life with a simple rhyme
connect my soul to the mic - it's a profession of mine

Your profession is not what brings home your paycheck
your profession is what you were put on earth to do
with passion and such intensity that it becomes spiritual in calling......calling me

about

Engineers in Your Ear Los Angeles, California

"E.Y.E brings a good times sound that can easily translate from a bouncing club to a beachside campfire. While checking out their new project Aint no Sunshine I proclaimed “that’s my favorite track” at least five times and was left with a get up and do some living feeling when it was over. This album...without the cliche quotes or any agenda besides go hard or go home." - Locash Magazine ... more
