My Mind’s Changed

Lyrics

[Chorus: Selah] 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 [Verse 1: Akala] In my mind a thousand characters battle to be heard Each one screaming at the top of their lungs, so I can't make out a word An odd occasion, one of the fools within my cranium Recovers the rules, discovers the tools for good communicatin' And the beatin' ceases, a million jigsaw pieces Shard of my shattered childhood fit together so easy And violence has meaning, poverty's honourable That's me projecting back from the space I am now When you in it and you live it, it is more than just horrible Any day you wake up your life can announce Don't quote me statistics, that won't cure the fear When I can see the life expectancy is half of my peers I done made it to 30, further than my mother thought Can't lie, I went off the rails but never did get caught Maybe the strength from my mind or power's divine Or good old fashion love will explain it just fine That's why a teen never passed the stick that night, he squashed the beef At time the logical promise was to just cock 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 shit work, the way how we grew up See how the other brother face straight screw up Now I see my brothers and I see my reflections Don't mean not prepared for the worst, that mean I just ain't expecting And the fear, and the crave and protecting, the need and direction I no longer feel the need to mask those aggressions [Chorus: Selah] 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 [Verse 2:] In my mind I would die for the things I believe One of the mind's greatest powers is how it deceives And you beliefs, is silent Tell your people dialogue Still you got to maintain conviction and never trying to stop And I do not, know No can I tell u surely Surely, that pure speculation That's not put before me But what the mind conceives I strive to achieve It's cliche As the phrase say, I believe it's true indeed Believe is 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 more evaded by Multi purposed layered image Ye many different mind's resort the same That we share a power switch Soon cut this cord Disconnect from our minds Ye I called thind mind mine The one, know nothing is in Can't define it much Cause find it doesn't reside in my brain [Chorus: Selah] 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 [Verse 3: Akala] In my mind is a nation of it's own that I don't condone Much less control, the occupy the form But know that I'm the servant, more like an observer Powerless to stop myself witnessing the murder It's a curve and I'm recurving in, nothing's ever certain 'Cause the storytellers freestyling, making up the wording And as it goes along just to throw me off so I don't know the plot Even though I am on screen, take the credits from new open shops 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 know more control than I As a child, I swore they'd find a cure so I wouldn't die Same little child that you could call a loner Alone, thinking with discipline is 20 years old Yeah, I gone back but can't sit in quiet minutes The chapter on my mind is why i produce It's an overload, it's in the coded code We know it's on the only show On the road Been told, ever since it hit Rome Never showing them the cause of the flow That a force to change the course so we reaping and sewing See the mind is the reason why we fooled up a lot And if you troubling someone's loved ones then we fiending for blood I want to grow up and grow down and go back into the ground And some of the things produced by the mind might just stick around [Chorus: Selah] 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 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
