When the "Circuital" cd came out and I started listening to this song, at first I thought he was talking about the success that he and the other guys in MMJ had achieved. "It matters to me...took a long time to get here...if it would've been easy, I would not have cared." But then he starts singing, "I'm going where there ain't no fear, I'm going where the spirit is near, I'm going where the living is easy, and the people are kind, a new state of mind. I'm going where there ain't no police, I'm going where there ain't no disease, I'm going where there ain't no need to escape from what is, only spirits at ease."
Those lyrics let me know that he wasn't talking about the hard work it took for his band to make it. Those lyrics speak of the peace of Heaven, or something comparable. It's hard to be sure of what he was thinking of when he wrote these lyrics. One thing I do know for sure. Our messed up world should be listening to positive uplifting music like this during these times when policemen are being shot while putting gasoline in their cars.
