have you ever gotten stoned and just like think?.... for those of you who said yes you know what im talking about....when you get high and thought about life in general... about music,your relationships, and whether or not to go buy food ... lol.. i just did that today.. with my brother actually... but after he left was when i was on a roll... i thought about whether or not musicians today have it easy.. and came to a conclusion .. it was a hands down no.. and that surprised me... well before you get angry with me let me explain... i thought about how they have a responsibility to the rest of us... not only to come up with hits or whatever but as teacher and a role model... they have it hard... to send us the right message thru their words...me, i like lots of stuff when it comes to music...i like punk and then i like blues... kinda a walking contradiction if you ask me... tho it works well for me... i like guys where there big enough to know that their message is getting out and not big enough to be played on repeat on the radio stations....and where im from the kind of stuff that i like is not what everyone else likes... in hawaii, reggae is HUGE and dont really care for it even tho i used to be into guys like ooklah the moc and humble soul... the progresson went like this.... 1.ganster rap and hawaiian(elementary) 2. reggage and hawaiian(middle school and part of freashman year high school) 3. rock(rest of high school till about 5 minutes ago).... and from what i gather rock and punk(mostly punk) has a different message from the rest.. a message of activism,knowledge, and responsibility.... that has changed my life in many ways... i went from thinking i was a thug to a rasta to, now a person of complex thought.. and punk music( and a little weed) has helped me with that complexity.... i now think a little deeper and more thoroughly about things that need thinking...stuff like if the war is necessary... you know stuff like that.. also LIFE... basically relationships in general... about how you never know when you will be beamed into a relationship and how your suppoed to act when your in one... are you supposed to be nice or a healthy mix of nice and naughty? are you supposed to treat her as if shes the best thing that happened to you or like the best thing to happen to you in the last five minutes...i know they all say to put her on a pedestal but who would want to be worshiped like a god... i know that sounds intresting but for how long does that go on for... days? years?...
i mean how long till it gets old...thats what im really looking for... how long till something gets old...i get bored very quickly and look for other things to keep me in there....i need something that sounds like a answer...
