1. Open up my mind with these spoken words
Let this music heal like an overture
She's the only one, one, one, yeah, yeah
And so I roll with her, ooh
That's how it's supposed to be
Living life with loved ones close to me
Shh, ahh, this is the remedy
And I got the recipe, I don't need no Hennessy
Yeah, it's been nine months now
Haven't had a drink and I'm starting to see clear now
I'm putting all my fears down
I can hear the cheers now
Seeing peace signs when I look around.

[Chorus:]
Hey, young homie what you trippin' on
Looking at life, like how did I get it wrong
Life's too short, gotta live it long
To my brothers and sisters, when will we get along
Hey, young homie what you trippin' on
Looking at life, like how did I get it wrong
Life's too short, gotta live it long
To my brothers and sisters when will we get along.

2. Open up your eyes, look around
Homie, can you see how it's going down
Brothers locked up, sisters knocked up
If you wanna build your love up, put your hate down
Ooh, that's the only way to live
Turnin' negatives to positives
"It's gonna be alright" Bob Marley said
F*ck the dumb sh*t, keep it movin', that's what time it is.

3. Give peace to the war in the streets
Give peace to the evil that creeps, yeah
I just ride, put my hand to the sky
Live life like I'm never gon' die
See we be fighting and fussing over nothing
So much destruction, looking like puppets
Combusting like nothing, now listen
It takes education, to change your reputation
From bad to good, you're gettin' better now you're elevating
They be singing, family's hanging, everybody's chillin'
Not gonna stop this, living on the feeling
Man this is the real thing, tell me can you feel me
Wait ‘til they drop this, dancing on the ceiling.

[Coda:]
What you really trippin' on
Young homie what you trippin' on.
