Music In My Head and Heart

October 2001
 
Peace Not Greed -Kottonmouth Kings

A lonely teenage daydream,
Of things I just might be,
A surreal kind of thinking,
Keeps on drifting in on me,
 My twisted body is lifeless,
 Not so their twisted minds,

Peace through power their motto,
Power through peace their crime,

Product of our environment (x8),

Maybe one day they will legalize weed,
In the year TWO "G" the planet could be deceased,
We plead to the fleece while we're beggin' on our knees,
In our hometown Cali with bears and green trees,
 Birds and the bees, hot sand on the beach, 
Shells in the sea and I'm living in peace,
Like a dog on a leash locked up with no key,
I gotta smoke under cover, Motherfuck the police,
Yeah, see the matching hand and they're robbing from the hat,
 The laws an illusion to symbolize that,
Putting us in jail for the ???? tax, I can see the wires in the levitating act,
 I can hear the lies and they're calling them facts,
 I can see the bars and they're lookin all cracked,
 I read between the lines but the lines are all cracked,
 I can feel the knife turning in my back,
 How would life be if the world smoked weed?
Guaranteed there'd be peace not greed,
See, it's hell, Living in a cell,
Legalize the plant only time will tell,
 How would life be if the world smoked weed?
 Guaranteed there'd be peace not greed,

 See, it's hell,
Living in a cell
Legalize the plant only time will tell,
You are a sacred being of light,
Projected into reality for a purpose,
Demand the right to your moment,
 In this holographic gift with no rules, no borders,
 Except for those who you choose to accept and live by,

 Abolish government it's only tyranny,
Forget about god, he's not here to see,
We live by a system, a perfect mold,
People perfect people who are poor and old,
Lies were spent on a sad defense,
They said we're lookin for a method in this world ???,
 Presidents are named,
Presidents are labeled highest man on the government table,

America, land of the free,
Free to the power of the people in uniform (x2),

How would life be if the world smoked weed?
Guaranteed there'd be peace not greed,
See, it's hell,
 Living in a cell,
 Legalize the plant only time will tell,
How would life be if the world smoked weed?
Guaranteed there'd be peace not greed,
 See, it's hell,
Living in a cell,
Legalize the plant only time will tell,

Society, fuck it!
 I've had enough!
 The system's full of crooks, straight up corrupt,
 You look like a decoy by the knife a duck,
 And your money keeps em smokin on a BC Bluff,
You're caught up in the headlights of my V-Dub bus,
TSOL and the Kings about to even things up,
Your birds will take all the air out the sky,
Bring em down to our level,
You can work, can't hide,

Product of our environment (x8)

 A lonely teenage daydream,
 Of things I just might be,
A surreal kind of thinking,
 Keeps on drifting in on me,
 My twisted body is lifeless,
 Not so their twisted minds,
Peace through power their motto,
Power through peace their crime,

The government keeps tight control over the population,
While the schools teach the kids restricted education,
 Murder, Rape, Sex, Underage prostitution,
They got the war on pot, they got the wrong solution,
I wake and I bake, nowhere to escape,
 Livin' life in a tank they invade my space,
 Betrayed full of hate while they're shootin all blanks,
 Society's lost in a paranoid state,

 It's the illusion of ownership, It's take what you can get,
 The banks are the loan sharks and everyone's in debt,
 And if you get ahead how quickly you forget,
You're hanging from a burning rope without a safety net,
They tax you when you sell,
They tax you when you buy,
 They take half when you live,

They take half when you die,
 These are the lies that they are stating as facts,
I can see the wires of the levitating act,
How would life be if the world smoked weed?
Guaranteed there'd be peace not greed,
See, it's hell,
 Living in a cell,
Legalize the plant only time will tell,

How would life be if the world smoked weed?
Guaranteed there'd be peace not greed,
 See, it's hell,
Living in a cell,
Legalize the plant only time will tell,

 I'm glad that I can read,
I'm glad that I can write,
I read their fuckin bullshit,
Every single night,
When off in my head went a little fuckin light,
It told me what was wrong it told me what was right,

 World bank-Power and control,
 Issuing the money and they're dollin' out the roles,
 Charging what they want to with the money, the control,
 Living in their nightmare, giving them your soul!

I try to breathe
         Memories overtaking me
         I try to face them but
         the thought is too
         Much to conceive

 I only know that I can change
         Everything else just stays the same
         So now I step out of the darkness
         That my life became 'cause

         I just needed someone to talk to 
         You were just too busy with yourself
         You were never there for me to
         Express how I felt
         I just stuffed it down
         Now I'm older and I feel like
         I could let some of this anger fade
         But it seems the surface
         I am scratching
         Is the bed that I have made

         So where were you
         When all this I was going through
         You never took the time to ask me 
         Just what you could do
 

        I only know that I can change
        Everything else just stays the same
         So now I step out of the darkness
         That my life became 'cause

Follow Me - Uncle Kracker
 ? - Morcheba

In The End by Linkin Park

It starts with one thing 
I don't know why 
It doesn't even matter how hard you try 
keep that in mind 
I designed this rhyme 
To explain in due time 
All I know 
Time is a valuble thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings 
Watch it count down to the end of the day 
The clock ticks life away 

It's so unreal 
Didn't look out below 
Watch the time go right out the window 
Trying to hold on, but didn't even know 
Wasted it all just to watch you go 
I kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart 
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when 

I tried so hard 
And got so far 
But in the end 
It doesn't even matter 
I had to fall 
To lose it all 
But in the end 
It doesn't even matter 

One thing, I don't know why 
It doesn't even matter how hard you try 
keep that in mind 

I designed this rhyme, to remind myself how 
I tried so hard 
In spite of the way you were mocking me 
Acting like I was part of your property 
Remembering all the times you fought with me 
I'm surprised it got so (far) 
Things aren't the way they were before 
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore 
Not that you knew me back then 
But it all comes back to me (in the end) 
You kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart 
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when I 

Chorus 

I've put my trust in you 
Pushed as far as I can go 
for all this 
There's only one thing you should know (2x) 

Chorus
