The Wilderness |
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 |
