Kito Peters: Music
2X4
(Kito Peters)
walked past the base walked through the mall
office parks and double wide sprawl
walked past my heart charred black in the sand
went out searching for the old homeland
brazen lies on your tv set
they haven¹t met a real-time reckoning yet
so either we shape up or we go down
living on the ego side of town
it¹s always been about the money
ever since they kissed this shore
sure we got numbers
but soul needs so much more
christmas lights and july 4th fire
you gonna grab what you most desire
crooked alleys of blood-caked gold
all the songs gone glib and cold
it¹s always been about the money
ever since they kissed this shore
sure we got numbers
but soul needs so much more
strung so tight at the barbeque
a 2x4 i went for you
i ripped a flag and i broke my hand
still out searching for the old homeland 3X
