I Did It
David J. Matthews Lyrics

I'm mixing up a bunch of magic stuff
I am combining various elements to create something magical

A magic mushroom cloud of care
A mixture that will create a powerful and transformative effect.

A potion that will rock the boat will rock
A concoction that will cause a significant change or disruption.

Make a bomb of love and blow it up
Create a forceful expression of love and use it to make a big impact.

I did it
I took action and made something happen.

Do you think I've gone too far
Do you believe that my actions were excessive or inappropriate?

Guilty as charged
I admit to having committed the act in question.

It was me right or wrong
I take responsibilty for what I did, regardless of whether it was right or wrong.

Yeah
An exclamation of excitement or affirmation.

I never did a single thing that did a single thing to
I did not do anything that resulted in any meaningful changes.

Change the ugly ways of the world
Alter the negative aspects of society and make it better.

I didn't know it felt so right inside
I was not aware of how fulfilling and satisfying it would be to take action.

I didn't know at all
I had no idea what to expect from my actions.

Open up the curtains I heard sirens there the lights flash and crawl
I am being summoned or arrested by the authorities for my actions.

I did it justice I just did it for the buzz
I did what was right by my own standards and did it for the excitement it brought.

It's a nickel or a dime for what I've done
The punishment for my actions is relatively small.

The truth is that I don't really care
I have no concern for the consequences of my actions.

For such a lovely crime I'll do the time
Despite the good intentions behind my actions, I am willing to serve my punishment.

You better lock me up I'll do it again
Even if punished, I am willing to repeat my actions.

All you people are the skewers of our dreams
Those who criticize or oppose my actions are hindering the realization of our collective aspirations.

Like the cat that collared me
The authorities are capturing me like a cat captures its prey.

Oh what I gotta say to you got love don't
I have a message for you: don't reject love.

Turn it down
Don't ignore or reject love.

Turn it loud
Embrace love and express it fully.

Let it build
Allow love to grow and become stronger over time.

We got a long way to go
There is still much work to be done in spreading love and making positive changes.

But you gotta start somewhere
The journey towards change must begin somewhere, even if it seems difficult.

Go door to door spread the love you got
Take love and positivity to the people by going directly to them.

You got the love
You possess the capacity to love and make things better.

You get what you want
You can achieve your goals with enough determination and effort.

Does it matter where you get it from
The ultimate source of what you seek is not as significant as achieving it.

I for one
Personally, I believe that...

Don't turn my cheek for anyone
I will not suppress or hide my feelings for anyone.

Unturn your cheek to give your love
Allow yourself to express your love and kindness without reservation.

Love to grow
Allow love to permeate and elevate all aspects of life.

I told you I told you I told you I told
I have explained the rationale for my actions to you multiple times.
