head, pressure, senses, clutch
date, divinity, wouldn't fuck
touched, hazy, god change
rush floor life

from a head full of pressure
rests the senses that i clutch
made a date with divinity but she wouldn't let me fuck
i got touched by a hazy shade of god, help me change
caught a rush on the floor from the life in my veins

from a head full of pressure
rests the senses that i clutch
made a date with divinity but she wouldn't let me fuck
i got touched by a hazy shade of god, help me change
caught a rush on the floor from the life in my veins

it goes:
one for the cannabis
and two for your dianetics
three for your reasoning
and four for those that try to get it
five for your love
and six for the stress
and seven for the day that i climbed into this mess

from a head full of pressure, rests the senses that i clutch
made a date with divinity but she wouldn't let me fuck
i got touched by a hazy shade of god, help me change
caught a rush on the floor from the life in my veins

i'm catchin ulcers from the childproof lighters
and all of these fine-toothed fighters
that keep the wires in my head tighter
i'm tired out by the distances achieved walkin in my sleep
floors got shifted since the high got a tad too deep
ask Dad to keep cool ill call him back
as soon as i resume normal, and get out of this bathroom
and call management
seek some reimbursement
for the nerve endings that burn from the first case

from a head full of pressure
rests the senses that i clutch
made a date with divinity but she wouldn't let me fuck
i got touched by a hazy shade of god, help me change
caught a rush on the floor from the life in my veins

from a head full of pressure
rests the senses that i clutch
made a date with divinity but she wouldn't let me fuck
i got touched by a hazy shade of god, help me change
caught a rush on the floor from the life in my veins

so fuck needles, fuck smoke, fuck lines that make the sinus choke

fuck chasers and trails, fuck raves and rails
fuck hangovers, fuck hallucinations
regurgitations, mandatory sentences

and UA tracing blind
my insight indulge in common sense
give me inhibition, kill the superstition and the confidence

built a tolerance now its more than i consume
and when it boards up my room the world's whores will croon in unison

unify the eulogy

autopsy pages read euthenasia i.e. irony
well here i be within a pool of my drool, sedated
windows dilated comatose life overdose
tell Jacob Miles keep it wild-style
i promise i'll smile
and check the floor, god's got nice tile

tell Jacob Miles to keep that shit wild-style
and i'll smile, and check the floor god's got nice tile

from a head full of pressure, rests the senses that i clutch
i made a date with divinity but she wouldn't let me fuck
and i got touched by a hazy shade of god, help me change
caught a rush on the floor from the life in my veins (X2)

head
pressure
senses
clutch

    General Comment:"I got touched by a hazy shade of God - help me change"

    -he's desperately and directly asking God for help, despite never doing so before (hazy shade). Thats just how I interpret that sentence.

    "Windows dilated "

    - eyes are considered to be the windows to the soul, the dilation of his eyes is a side effect of opiate use. (pinpoint pupils)

    My Opinion:definitely one of the best and most real songs by Atmosphere. I never get sick of listening to this. It is on a different level lyrically...but then again, that is the norm for Slug <3

    General Comment:Slug is epic in this song, and i also believe Ant really came through on his part, the beat and the sax are so smooth, this song needs to be praised, it is so true and so genius that only atmosphere could put together.

    General Comment:I completely agree with the majority of the rest of the post specifically with those who mentioned heroin as the drug slug happens to be on but more importantly i think this song is more about hitting rock bottom. Because honestly if you laying on gods bathroom floor you've gotta be at the bottom.

    ""From a head full of pressure rests the senses that i clutch, made a date with Divinity, but she wouldn't let me fuck"

    slug always refers to God in his songs as a she, and Divinity translates to a greater being. so basically, slug overdosed and was supposed to die, i.e. made a date with Divinity, but God wouldn't let him die. after thinking of this song from this perspective, this song gives me the chills to listen to it. fucking amazing! slug is the best lyricist of all time "

    thats a cool way of thinking of it but I'v also thought of that line as he was thinking getting high would make him feel divine, of a "greater being", and feeling good, but once he got high and came down again, he realized he was just as miserable as before. its like when you go on a date with a girl thinking its going to be awsome cuz your gonna have sex at the end of the night but when it gets to that point and she turns you down, the date wasn't as divine as you imagined it would be. its like that guy at the top said "mulmo" drugs are really fruitless and pointless when you look at there true value. either way i think slug creates his lyrics to be open to interpretation to a certain degree.. he is no doubt 100% in my mind the best white rapper out there and/or rapper out there cuz his song are as down to earth as lyrics can get

    My Interpretation:This song to me is about a guy who overdoses on heroin and is very close to death, and realizes that drugs and alcohol aren't for him.

    "Date with divinity but she wouldn't let me fuck" - He knew he was dying, and almost does but comes through at the end.

    "Fuck needles, fuck smoke, fuck lines that make the sinus choke" - Heroin, Weed, Cocaine

    "Fuck chasers, and trails," - Chaser=alcohol, trail=drug treatment

    "Fuck raves and rails" - Ecstacy, and lines of drugs (pills coke etc.)

    The rest is pretty obvious (hallucinations, hangovers, UA tracing,)

    Great song.

    My Interpretation:I have an idea on what exactly the chorus might be about.
    Head Pressure - He literally feels his head and notices that there might be something wrong,
    Senses Clutch - He's restless from the beginning of an overdose has he tries to keep hold of his senses and not pass out.
    Date with Divinity - He refers to god as a female, not being able to meet as in he was saved or came back to life.
    Hazy god - He had never really believed god and still had some doubts but he eventually changed.
    Caught a rush on the floor in his veins - Meaning he could have been saved by whatever method is administered for a certain drug overdose, and he could feeling his veins has he was brought back to life.

    Mehh, just my thoughts.
