I'm gonna smoke weed for the rest of my life you can find me postin on my porch
Tokin my pipe-I'm gonna smoke weed for the rest of my life see some people gave in but I ain't
Given up the fight I'm gonna smoke weed for the rest of my life find me old postin on my porch
Tokin on my pipe I'm gonna smoke weed for the rest of my life see I'm in love with Mary Jane I'm
Gonna make her my wife

Sometimes I want to get high travel up away to the beautiful skies
Float away and hope to never come down hope to see the day that I never come down
But what goes up is always bound to fall
I'll I'm trying to say is that I live my life raw
I'm gonna smoke week the rest of my life and give all I got till the day that I die.
Ya!

I'm gonna smoke weed for the rest of my life you can find me postin on my porch tokin my
Pipe-I'm gonna smoke weed for the rest of my life see some people gave in but I ain't given up
The fight I'm gonna smoke weed for the rest of my life find me old postin on my porch tokin on
My pipe I'm gonna smoke weed for the rest of my life see I'm in love with Mary Jane I'm gonna
Make her my wife

When I look in the mirror I feel so low
I see my eyes and I feel the glow
I know I can make do let's bless the sole
Show my love and let myself go wow
Everybody knows that I spit these flows and I drink my beer smoke my weed
But my head's in the clear
Show your love respect the one your dreaming of.

I'm gonna smoke weed for the rest of my life you can find me postin on my porch tokin my
Pipe-I'm gonna smoke weed for the rest of my life see some people gave in but I ain't given up
The fight I'm gonna smoke weed for the rest of my life find me old postin on my porch tokin on
My pipe I'm gonna smoke weed for the rest of my life see I'm in love with Mary Jane I'm gonna
Make her my wife

Let us plant trees that bear positive fruits that enlighten our minds to the deepest roots all
The way to the core where the soul can stay true – where I can walk free with a joint in my hand
And I can plant plants right upon my land help em' understand these are natures laws my creator
Had visions in the things he saw yeah – he saw – yeah my creator had visions in the things he
Saw yeah…

I'm gonna smoke weed for the rest of my life you can find me postin on my porch tokin my
Pipe-I'm gonna smoke weed for the rest of my life see some people gave in but I ain't given up
The fight I'm gonna smoke weed for the rest of my life find me old postin on my porch tokin on
My pipe I'm gonna smoke weed for the rest of my life see I'm in love with Mary Jane I'm gonna
Make her my wife

Now when the love is lost and your spirits are low
The world's closing in around you got no place to go
Done all that you could to ease and please another soul
And in the end you're in the cold, another sad story told
That's why I make my own decisions on how I'm liven
Try to get by with the knowledge that I'm given
Can't make me believe cause a tree is a tree
And when my soul bleeds, the color that I'm spillin' is green

I'm gonna smoke weed for the rest of my life you can find me postin on my porch tokin my
Pipe-I'm gonna smoke weed for the rest of my life see some people gave in but I ain't given up
The fight I'm gonna smoke weed for the rest of my life find me old postin on my porch tokin on
My pipe I'm gonna smoke weed for the rest of my life see I'm in love with Mary Jane I'm gonna
Make her my wife

    Yeah, I don't know much about you other guys, but I personally am a stoner. It changed me into a much better person socially. I was a metalhead and I was always mad violent or something, but weed made me a happy and easy-going guy. I heard this song for the first time when I was blazed out of my skull and I fell in love with it.

    Kottonmouth Kings made being high so much better.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
