Cover art for High Voltage (Remix) lyrics by Linkin Park

This version of the song (Three all together, truthfully. Each with a different meaning. Scary, eh'?) (I'm not canadian. >_>)

"You know what I mean You could put a label on a life, Put a label on a lifestyle

Sometimes... You know Put a label on how you wake up every morning And go to bed at night"

Well, thats self explainitory. The media is putting a label on this shit, and trying to keep it one-sided. It can't be Rock <I>and</I> rap, it has to be Either Rap, or Rock. Mike's part(s), (In all three) talk about his, the band, and Chester's evolution from the different bands they were in. You ever heard any of Mike's Xero songs? They ARe bland. The same sing-song karaoke Bullshit he complains about in these.

And like the rock and rap You know what I mean People act like you know Wow that’s a new invention That shits brand new We're constantly evolving It is constantly changing

The Priest is talking about how most people don't realize Rock and Rap have been together. At all, at that -- But it's been here for a while. (Run DMC anyone?)

There's a lot of change Everybody's always up with labels There ain’t no label for this shit They're always gonna try to put a label on it Try to create something So they can water it down

As before, the media, and people are putting a label on Everything nowa-days. Quit trying to label something and make it one-sided.

Chester's part (Sometimes I feel like a prophet...) is talking about how Chester qrites the songs, and each song is different. But he's under the gun, meaning he has to be careful about what he says. And how much emotion he puts in All of his work. And the band's work.

"You know what I mean, you can put a label on a lifestyle" The last line represents what the entire song is about, really. It's trying to say that instead of labelling something, someone, or ...Pretty much anything, Put a label on a lifestyle. That's the thing that needs a label. Concentrate on what's important, not this shit.
