Chili Peppers = enlightened brah rock
 
"My Friends"

[Verse 1]
My friends are so depressed
I feel the question
Of your loneliness
Confide, cause I'll be on your side
You know I will, you know I will

[Verse 2]
Ex-girlfriend called me up
Alone and desperate
On the prison phone
They want to give her 7 years
For being sad

[Chorus]
I love all of you
Hurt by the cold
So hard and lonely too
When you don't know yourself

[Verse 3]
My friends are so distressed
And standing on
The brink of emptiness
No words I know of to express
This emptiness

[Chorus]
I love all of you
Hurt by the cold
So hard and lonely too
When you don't know yourself

[Bridge]
Imagine me taught by tragedy
Release is peace

[Verse 4]
I heard a little girl
And what she said
Was something beautiful
To give your love
No matter what
And what she said

[Chorus]
I love all of you
Hurt by the cold
So hard and lonely too
When you don't know yourself

They have some very straightforward songs whose meanings aren't hard to grasp too ^
 
Not sure if trolling but...

Some of my favorites from The Red Hot Chili Peppers are these two lesser known songs


This song is about when Anthony Keidis being in a crazy relationship with some chick who was obsessed with him...she was supposed to be the next big star in hollywood, but he got her hooked on drugs and broke up with her


He broke her





And this song is basically about the relationship he wanted with Sinead O Connor...so he recorded this song for her on a cassette tape and put it under her door


She never responded or seen him again

No way, man. That’s some abstract shit that rivals Chino Moreno’s lyrics when it comes to trying to understand them.
 
Scar tissue is one of my favorite songs ever, not just a chili pepper song, but like song songs.
 
Plenty of them are about sex. Some are about drugs. Some of them are gibberish.

Check out I Could Have Lied.
 
I'e always thought Anthony Kedis (Don' know if I spelled that right), l
lyrics wernt impressive at all. He comes up with catchy melodies though.
 
Knock me Down - anti drug (do believe it was written for Hilly and to a Anthony as as letter to himself)
