Remo Conscious - Love, Peace, Freedom lyrics

Love, Peace, and Freedom I'm floating heavy minded over plains of thought Dreaming of a place where people follow their hearts Where material lust is a thing of the past And corporations can't buy a mans soul with cash And since money bought trouble, it was all burned Love and respect would make the world turn People would barter for goods, every hood had peace In a land full of nourishment so all could eat Picture no starvation, war between nations Where every day is a celebration And it's ok to smile shake hands and hug Cause to get a record deal you don't have to be a thug The ski is always clear, no smog and no tears In the eyes of a child cause she's living' in fear No guns or bullets, bombs or borders No secret society, New World Order Prisons don't exist, cause crime is obsolete Freedom is real and love rules the streets Freedom is poetry over a fresh beat And the sound of life never sounded so sweet And just to make it complete there are no elite All people are equal white, yellow, or brown feet Smile at each other give a pound when they meet Rather than grief, stress, bullet holes, or loose teeth Chorus Say love, L.O.V.E What about peace, between you and me And Freedom Put your hand's in the sky if you believe we can find it tonight Say love l.o.v.e What about peace, between you and me And Freedom Can this place really exist or am I psychotic Is this world we live in meant to be chaotic? Little boys with guns fully loaded and heavy Trigger finger steady, flesh torn like confetti Bless those born ready, and wide-awake Struggling for peace in a cold world of hate, poverty and disease Enemies await armed in the shadows, each day a battle Fighting with starvation or self annihilation Life is full of complications The media and school system have got your mind imprisoned Trapped in a box of limited thought and vision From Pediatrician to Mortician, the struggle is continuous Just paying the rent takes every last cent The present quickly turns to past tense Homicide by drive by or government They spend billions on bombs but neglect the war on the streets Where kids commit crimes just to eat Dying on crippled blocks, where tax money seems to funds Dirty cops who play god with guns The schools are left in shambles Making the future for the planet that we cherish a gamble My pockets are full of lint but if I had the money I wouldn't buy diamonds, I'd feed the hungry Chorus Which is the road to peace and happiness? Smiles and sunshine, love and fun times No more bombs, tanks or gun times Or minorities placed on the front lines I dream of these things like a fiend In the night Holding the mic like a pipe, looking for light I want to inhale my daughter smile and exhale relief Knowing that she can live in peace Sometime tears run down my cheek chasing dreams Where ghettos turn to gold and sour living turns sweet Where pain turns to joy, the smiles replace the frowns on every face Girls and boys know that they have a place In this world living free from oppression, in a land where complexion Can mean either life or d**h have and have not That's why we have got to make a change For social justice in a nation of deranged men Greedy for control of your soul It'll change when we organize and wise up We've got to join as one and rise up if we really want Chorus
