| Check, test, 1 2, 1 2, alright
|
| Now the 20 is about religion — the opiate of the masses
|
| But when they talk about god
|
| They make him sound like a fascist
|
| Jesus Christ was a pacifist
|
| Half the shit they do in his name would probably make him pissed
|
| Yet they still hold out, with the same old line of bullshit
|
| ??? |
| the masses, tap into their wallets
|
| How the hell can you tell me about the afterlife?
|
| You ain’t been there, and — check — neither have I
|
| Cause morality don’t need no goddamn government
|
| And the system that they run — I got no love for it
|
| So I dedicate my life to music
|
| And when it hits, you know I don’t refuse it
|
| Man, I found my salvation — here on Earth
|
| I roll the tape on my 24 track church
|
| Somewhere around beyond this wilderness
|
| There’s the salvation, I know
|
| Beyond the politics and troubles of this world
|
| There’s the salvation, I know
|
| They say life is one big road with lots of signs
|
| So when you’re struggling for the rock
|
| Don’t you complicate your mind
|
| In this world there ain’t no easy answers
|
| And you’re never gonna get nowhere if you don’t take chances, oh yeah
|
| People are goddamn greedy, and I’ll tell you something
|
| I’ll smash every window on your SUV
|
| What the hell do you need one of those for — you’re living in the city
|
| I’m just a simple guy, with complex problems
|
| Like me vs. the system
|
| From Lakeview (?) to ???
|
| Stop it? |
| Not 'til I’m in a f*cking coffin
|
| Another guy in the program from Boston
|
| I like punk rock, I like reggae
|
| And if you wanna talk about heavy metal it better be from the 70s, not the 80s
|
| And when I get jacked you know it ain’t on white powders
|
| Man, I’m just tryin' to get on, tryin' to make my way through
|
| This time I’ll get it on
|
| Somewhere around beyond this wilderness
|
| There’s the salvation, I know
|
| Beyond the politics and troubles of this world
|
| There’s the salvation, I know
|
| There’s the salvation, I know |
