Peace Lyrics - Singles - Metta World Peace

Yeah! I go by the name of Cassidy! 

I'm gonna sing a rap about violence, 

Cuz that's what I see. 

I mean everyone's violent, 

And sometimes I am violent in my soul. 

Violence is at the all-time high 

But sometimes I get high and just imagine 

What if the Earth was at peace? 

 

Imagine if you never had to box no more, 

Never had to use your gun and run from cops no more, 

You can stop the violence, stop the war, 

No more beef on the street, 

I'm talking about peace. 

Imagine that you would never had to fight no more, 

Never had to take your life and take a life no more, 

And you could stop the violence, stop the war 

No more beef on the street, 

I'm talking about peace. 

 

Every day I try to imagine, but can't fight them, 

A world with no,.. and no shoot, and no stabbing, 

Cause people were evil, since Eve and Adam, 

Make Abel and Cain, so it's not gonna be able to change, 

I'll let you know and I'll never get bad, you know, 

If you try and leave in peace you can all go to heaven, yo 

If you're trying to live in peace, you gotta do the hard thing, you know? 

You'll never know where you're going, you gotta die,.. 

But some guys are worse than others, 

I think God... you should try church, 

If you got faith, that's how God work, 

You still comprehend the Lord if you buy work, 

And buy guns cause we're still God's sons. 

 

Imagine if you never had to box no more, 

Never had to use your gun and run from cops no more, 

You can stop the violence, stop the war, 

No more beef on the street, 

I'm talking about peace. 

Imagine that you would never had to fight no more, 

Never had to take your life and take a life no more, 

And you could stop the violence, stop the war 

No more beef on the street, 

I'm talking about peace. 

 

Why is it war, why is it hatred, 

We need it, that's the reason why Satan was created. 

Moses was a murderer but he was God's favorite, 

My gun goes straight off but prayers still pay off 

Imagine if Adolf never discriminated, 

And Martin Luther King was never assassinated, 

Imagine if Malcolm X would have made it, 

And Nelson Mandela was never incarcerated, 

America was never segregated, 

And crooks like George W. Bush never graduated. 

Some kids look at gangsta movies and their fascinated, 

And try to do the same shit or some lame shit. 

 

Imagine if you never had to box no more, 

Never had to use your gun and run from cops no more, 

You can stop the violence, stop the war, 

No more beef on the street, 

I'm talking about peace. 

Imagine that you would never had to fight no more, 

Never had to take your life and take a life no more, 

And you could stop the violence, stop the war 

No more beef on the street, 

I'm talking about peace. 

 

I'm from a hood where good Niggers die too much, 

I'm from a block where they would be popping off the... too much, 

People crying too much, from the stress they see, 

We got to make a change and we got to make it A.S.A.P 

No, I ain't graduated, take the S.A.T, 

But I knew right from wrong when I was writing this song. 

Even the strongest men have the right to be wrong, 

And the weakest men might become strong. 

 

Imagine if you never had to box no more, 

Never had to use your gun and run from cops no more, 

You can stop the violence, stop the war, 

No more beef on the street, 

I'm talking about peace. 

Imagine that you would never had to fight no more, 

Never had to take your life and take a life no more, 

And you could stop the violence, stop the war 

No more beef on the street, 

I'm talking about peace. 

 

... ass, man, tired of talking like you complete his bullshit man 

Yeah, man, just cause Joe's on a cover you... balls 

Like the balls now, so good man,.. don't worry about me 

I can run with my man needing em 

 

Let's... some 

Hold on, hold on, turn the TV on 

What's up with you mom? 

Still not answering the phone 

Hey boy, what's going on? 

Hey I just came back from the studio and heard about the beat and 

And his new basketball game I just got 

That's you, always doing your things 

 

Cass, he doin good in school, and you know Shane he growing up getting big 

He made up some new dance... that's crazy, I'm a put in my next video 

Great, cause he's a showman just like you are 

You know the thing you learned, yeah yeah 

I told you before, my mother was a musician, my grandfather was a musician 

Your dad was into the... street, so it's all in your blood 

Yeah it's music all into family, but don't leave all the fact that you used to rap, you were hot 

Back in the day mom, 

What? 

There's music all in my blood.
