Akala - My Mind's Changed lyrics

My mind's changed It's part of living this life So wrong or right We expand our mind 'Cause my mind's changed I don't know what to say Along the way many wrongs in this place 'Cause my mind's changed The things were better before I ain't sure that they matter anymore 'Cause my mind's changed My mind's changed In my mind a thousand characters battle to be heard Each one screaming at the top of there lungs So I can't make out a word And all occasion One of the fools within my cranium Recovers the rules, discovers the tools For good communication And the beating ceases a million Jigsaw pieces Shards of my shattered childhood fit together so easy And violence has meaning Poverty is honourable That's me projecting back From the space I am now When you in and you live it It is more than just horrible Any day you wake up feel your life can end now Don't quote me statistics That won't cure the fear When I can see the life expectancy of half of my peers I done made it to thirty Further than my mother though Can't lie, I went off the rails But never did get caught Maybe the strength from my mind Or powers divine Or good old fashion luck will explain it just fine That's why T never pa**ed the stick that night He squashed the beef At time the logical promise was to just co*k and squeeze I weren't that guy I was just acting The pride and the confines of my mind I was trapped in Funny how the sh** work The way we all grew up to see other young brothers face straight screw up Now I see my brothers and I see my reflection Don't mean I ain't prepared for the worst it mean I just ain't expecting And the fear, and the crave and protection and needing direction I no longer feel the need to mask as aggression My mind's changed It's part of living this life So wrong or right We expand our mind 'Cause my mind's changed I don't know what to say Along the way many wrongs in this place 'Cause my mind's changed The things were better before I ain't sure that they matter anymore 'Cause my mind's changed My mind's changed In my mind I would die for the things I believe But one of the mind's greatest powers is how it deceives And your belief is just dialogue Til your people die a lot Still you got to maintain conviction and never try and stop And I do not, know Nor can I tell u surely Surely, that's pure speculation On what's not been put before me But what the mind conceives I strive to achieve As cliche as that phrase is I believe it's true indeed Belief's powerful The image of Christ Got half the entire planet believing that the saviour is white And skin bleaching and such other sickness Must be understood within us Mind's motivated by Multiple much layered image Yet a million different mind's results the same Like we share a power source Can't disconnect from the mains Yet I call this mind mine Though I know not its aim Can't define it, much less find it Does it reside in my brain? My mind's changed It's part of living this life So wrong or right We expand our mind 'Cause my mind's changed I don't know what to say Along the way many wrongs in this place 'Cause my mind's changed The things were better before I ain't sure that they matter anymore 'Cause my mind's changed My mind's changed n my mind there's a nation of its own That I don't condone Much less control Or occupy the phone But nor am I the servant More like an observer Powerless to stop myself Witnessing the murder It's occurring and recurring And nothing's ever certain 'Cause the story teller's freestyling Making up the wording As he goes along Just to throw me off So I don't know the plot Even though I am on screen To the credits to from the opening shot And that may sound cryptic But I ain't got a clue How to explain to you The things that we go through I know that you feel it too You're in no more control than I As I child I swore they'd fine the cure so that I wouldn't die Same little child that you could call alone Alone, thinking with discipline that's 20 years old Yet I gone back I can't sit in quiet for two minutes The chatter on my mind is why I produce lyrics It's an overload From the coldest globe That we know is home The only show on the road Been told, ever since ancient Rome Never showing them the course of the flowing Like the force that change the course So we reaping and sewing See the mind is the reason why we feel that we're loved And if you troubling someone's loved ones Then we fiending for blood I we grow up And grow down And go back into the ground And some of the things produced by the mind Might just stick around My mind's changed It's part of living this life So wrong or right We expand our mind 'Cause my mind's changed I don't know what to say Along the way many wrongs in this place 'Cause my mind's changed The things were better before I ain't sure that they matter anymore 'Cause my mind's changed My mind's changed My mind's changed It's part of living this life So wrong or right We expand our mind 'Cause my mind's changed I don't know what to say Along the way many wrongs in this place 'Cause my mind's changed The things were better before I ain't sure that they matter anymore 'Cause my mind's changed My mind's changed
