The Zillas - P.O.M. lyrics
[Verse 1] Excuse me, beg your pardon This ain' no f**ing product This ain't some sh** you can just cop And act like you ain't part of Yours Truly did me proper Continue on the saga Still ain't got no persona Nothing like these puppet artists I still ain't feel like my real life has started I been on stage and performing instead of living like normal I know my body's a temple, but it's like I'm trying to destroy it Without a deal with the devil, I'm trying to get where I'm going, you know The stage and lights makes sh** confusing Use the fame don't let it use you They say that life is precious, I say your mind is precious Travel time inside your head and what you write might live forever Nothing is sacred I swear Except the places we pray and how she play with my hair I need a beat in my ear like I to sleep and breath air So I take a piece of my mind and put it right here [Chorus: Otieno Terry] To be honest This is more than I ever wanted, Lord And I say it because I mean it I just want some peace of mind I just want some peace of mind I just want some peace of mind [Verse 2] We can talk about it, or we can be about it We on the same team brother, I don't even doubt it My mind is on cloud 9 I been trying to get to earth You might sell your soul for love, but what's the worth? I ain't judging I just wonder sometimes If y'all really love the music or you just wanna shine? I've seen the ego take over the mind I've seen religion save lives and take lives At the same damn time You pray for peace but who doesn't Every night we pray for justice Every night I stay up late and wonder why they make us suffer Bust a nut and make another, world ain't ready for him Revolutionary and his skin-tone is the uniform We go to battle just to let you know we matter I write a song to live and live my life to rap it Anything I did for money I regretted every time So I record not for record sales but for peace of mind [Chorus] To be honest This is more than I ever wanted, Lord And I say it because I mean it I just want some peace of mind I just want some peace of mind I just want some peace of mind
