The Bear Knows / Foundation

Intro - Scratched vocals over bass drone

(Wado... wado...)

Yeah... the Bear...

(Foundation... Foundation...)

Drop

Deep in the soil where the bass tones roll

Build it up, build it strong

Deep in the soil where the bass tones roll

Build it up, build it strong

Verse 1

Woke up this morning to a rumble underground

Sub frequencies crack the concrete

Shovels in the trunk, the moon is round

Roots are searching for where they meet

Layers of the echo stacking tall

Sound is the cement we pour

Every kick drum is a wrecking ball

Rebuild the kingdom from the floor

Pre-Chorus

From the bottom to the top

From the bottom to the top

Let the sine waves never stop

Let the sine waves never stop

Chorus

Building the foundation with sonic love

Deep as the double bass below

Foundation with sonic love

Kingdom of the treblo grow

Wado, wado, wado, wado

Drop

Build it up from the mud and the splatter

Build it up, build it strong

Build it up from the mud and the splatter

Build it up, build it strong

Verse 2

Scratched the needle til the record wept

Crumbled bricks and rebar bent

Mixed the echo where the bass tones crept

Every sample is a document

Triplets on the 808 stagger

Tape hiss and the oscillator hum

Blueprints drawn on a paper bag

The strongest structure's yet to come

Pre-Chorus

From the bottom to the top

From the bottom to the top

Let the sine waves never stop

Let the sine waves never drop

Chorus

Building the foundation with sonic love

Deep as the double bass below

Foundation with sonic love

Kingdom of the treblo grow

Wado, wado, wado, wado

Bridge - Filtered, psychedelic

(Uh...)

Echo chambers filled with gold dust

Digital mud and analog trust

Layers of the frequency must

Hold the weight when the speakers bust

One hand on the crossfader

One hand on the trowel

Sound becomes the arkuhtect

The kingdom wears a crown

Scratch Break - Turntablism

(Wado... foundation...)

(Treblo... treblo...)

(Sonic love...)

Verse 3

Lo fi hiss and a hi hat hop

Submarine pressure make the floorboards rock

Pitch-shifted prayer till the speakers pop

Standing on the cornerstone spot

Fungus on the wire, mildew on the mic

Building through the fog and the smoke

Temple ain't made of marble or price

Temple is the note when the people spoke

Pre-Chorus

From the bottom to the top

From the bottom to the top

Let the sine waves never stop

Let the sine waves never drop

Chorus

Building the foundation with sonic love

Deep as the double bass below

Foundation with sonic love

Kingdom of the treblo grow

Wado, wado, wado, wado

Outro - Filtered, descending

(Wado...)

The Bear...

(Wado...)

The Bear knows...

Sonic... love...

Foundation...
