Yeah people can walk through their whole lives not knowing what they can unlock from the inside
It's a shame there's so much pain and greed no wonder there are those that escape using weed
But you're reeled back in under thoughtless control and money and riches aren't going to fill the hole
It's a passion to follow your dreams but the weight of the world is never as it seems
I would try to tell someone how to feel but I would try to explain to the whats real
Because each decision has its reaction what history has taught us is we need action
So stand up and change the world for the better, you don't need to live life by the letter
It's always the time to make a mark before you die but you're ever feeling ignorant always ask why
Are you a hostage of the police? Answer the question! Might have been a criminal, kill the pedestrian
Mouth is on fire shoot him in the head, speaking out of line? Better off dead
Have we got a witness? Shoot him too, because you just broke a law that's enforced by you
You better surrender or I'll show you brutality, I am not an offender, gonna plead insanity
Because this world is crazy and completely unfair, you can't judge a man just because he's there
And laws are bullshit I can see right through, my morals are golden, how about you?
I would never hurt a soul, without provocation but stupid fucking punishment is not humiliation
Why not search for mental liberation? What you're taught in school is not education
There's a wider choice, a wider mind, bring us together and cure the blind
Because ignorance is all this and prejudice can slit a wrist
If I can't change your mind, I can waste your time please just tell me this
If I can change your mind, I can't waste your time, please just tell me this and ask why.
Well you can't be gnarly if you just do fuck all.
You can't fake falling off a 30 foot ladder.
