Mind Over Matter - X.Y.Z. lyrics

[Verse 1: Willow] I'm from a generation that they labelled as the lost ones Saw the world different and had a couple problems You could say my parents survived a storm With a lot of people still learning right from wrong And Vietnam showed us that we didn't want war Like get up off their land yo if it's not yours Politically aware ‘cause freedom was more To us but our parents had seen it all before Yeah in my top draw I had mixture of playboys And money for the Pacman machine that'd take coins Playing at the arcade asking out chicks That 70's surfing culture I miss And then the 80's came and hit us in a timely fashion Like dad I don't need none of that bible bashing Got a bigger thrill when listening to Michael Jackson He said time keeps ticking, don't try to catch it [Hook] And we all sing in different keys But somehow we all singing the same song I don't know how we all singing the same song I think it goes XYZ we dead though I think it goes XYZ we dead Yeah I think it goes XYZ we dead Yeah I think it goes XYZ we dead Yeah I think it goes XYZ we dead [Verse 2: Smiles Again] First they told us that we could fly And then they strapped our feet with cement boots Next they put a hole in our jet fuel And told us dial triple zero for rescue And my elder's think that I'm hell bent 4 thousand songs not one of them Elvis Downloaded to the iPod on my shelf that Never gets used I should probably sell it But no time for that I got a lot on my plate today So I'mma guess that I'mma get to it later On ‘cause all the pennies that I earn from my day job Goes to me allow me to be chewing my face off My parents went and strive for my better way of life But I'm always up a little late to ever say good bye In the morning still I claim I never waste my time And nothing ever my fault ‘cause I'm generation Y [Hook] And we all sing in different keys But somehow we all singing the same song I don't know how we all singing the same song I think it goes XYZ we dead though I think it goes XYZ we dead Yeah I think it goes XYZ we dead Yeah I think it goes XYZ we dead Yeah I think it goes XYZ we dead [Verse 3: Smiles Again & Willow] I got a thousand friends online who I never see Still they know about everything I've ever seen And every day I gain a few more steadily Mum says it wasn't like this in the seventies Got my doors locked crime grew heavily Trapped inside they prescribed me with sedatives Tell me why they define us with a letter 'Z' Full stop I'm the end of the alphabet [Hook] And we all sing in different keys But somehow we all singing the same song I don't know how we all singing the same song I think it goes XYZ we dead though I think it goes XYZ we dead Yeah I think it goes XYZ we dead Yeah I think it goes XYZ we dead Yeah I think it goes XYZ we dead [Bridge: Vida Sunshyne] For a minute I been complaining now I can begin again See they hold me down and don't hold my hand I won't show the doubt that I feel within Before I can shout this all out to them Take my time when I'm under for pressure for living in A place of destruction and innocence I wait for the generations to listen in
