paroles de chanson 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 for peace their crime

Product of our environment

Maybe one day they will legalize weed
In the year 2Gs the planet could be deceased
We plead to the fleas 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 keys
I gotta smoke under cover, motherfuck the police

Yeah, see the magic hand pull a rabbit from a hat
The law's an illusion, as simple as that
Putting us in jail, funding it with our 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 off track
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

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
There's nothing to it
Forget about God
He's no innocent
We live by a system
Of perfect goals
People vs. people who are bored and old
Life must rest on the man who represents
Looking for nothing in this
Campus with just friends
President the name
President the label
The highest man on the government table

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

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, bobbing like 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 run, can't hide

Product of our environment

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 for peace their crime

The government keeps tight control over the population
While the schools teach the kids restricted education
Murder, rape, sex, and 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, then 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

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 and it told me what was right
World bank-power and control, issuing the money and they're dolin' out the roles
Charging what they want to with the money they control
Living in their nightmare, giving them your soul
