I like all of his music. He's incredible. The last song on Fight for your mind is "One road to freedom". Both are great songs. lol
as to the quote. i just think Ben isn't about getting high to get high and forgetting life's responsibilities.
Smoke it, enjoy it but reality is much more important...

I've known a few people who had trouble when they quit. For some, it seemed like it was the disruption of their long routine, so it messed with their mental depenedncy for how they went about winding down their day. And others had some physical symptoms like irritability, and trouble sleeping. None of it was very severe or lasted very long, but it was real.
But still, I don't think that was what Ben Harper was even talking about. He was talking about people who let weed hold them back in some way. For some people it enhances their life, and for others it holds them back. Too bad he even used the word "addiction," because I think it just distracts from his real point.
