Keep the Peace
Harmony Amid Chaos: Matt Marks' Ode to Living Right
Lyrics
Stop the presses let's write some news that is not depressing
Expressing a desire to focus on positive news rather than depressing stories.
All I see is light and my vision is not correcting
Seeing a bright and positive outlook, unaffected by any vision correction.
Living for tonight grab the mic and I rock the session
Living in the moment, taking control of the microphone, and delivering a captivating performance.
Find delights in life off the clock inside my expression
Finding joy in life beyond work hours and expressing oneself creatively.
It's evident I never been the same as all these lames
Highlighting a sense of uniqueness, not conforming to the norms of others.
Always felt estranged just a resident of my brain
Feeling like an outsider, a resident within one's own mind.
Feeling strange the medicine is the same
Experiencing a sense of strangeness, with medicine serving as a constant.
Veteran of the game my regimen never change
Being an experienced participant in the music industry with a consistent approach.
Tired of the nihilist perspective
Expressing weariness with a nihilistic perspective on life.
Proof that love and light can still annihilate a record
Asserting that love and positivity can overpower and destroy negative influences in music.
If you living right don't need a weapon for protection
Believing that a righteous life doesn't require a weapon for protection.
But some y'all are crazy I keep me a Smith & Wesson
Acknowledging the presence of danger and the need for personal security.
I'm speaking for the peace don't shoot me
Advocating for peace and requesting not to be harmed despite expressing personal views.
Just tryna live my life and stay Groovy
Desiring to live a positive and enjoyable life, emphasizing the pursuit of happiness.
Tired of watching the same movies
Expressing discontent with repetitive and unoriginal experiences portrayed in movies.
When I'm making my own the haters will say they knew me
Stating that when creating one's own path, detractors will claim they predicted success.
Lights, camera, action
Referencing the start of a performance or action, possibly in the context of life's events.
Film rolling all I see is bad acting
Observing insincere or unconvincing behavior, likening it to bad acting in a film.
Burning daylight there isn't time for relaxing
Emphasizing the urgency of time and the lack of leisure for relaxation.
The universe is pressing heavy when you're tapped in
Highlighting the intense pressure felt when fully engaged or connected with the universe.
