Lyrics

I feel pain when they try to bring me down

I experience pain when people attempt to bring me down.

But as long as this world keeps turning round

Despite challenges, I believe that the world will keep turning, and the difficult times won't last forever.

I know it won't last forever

I acknowledge that challenges are temporary.

OK, OK my life is moving

My life is progressing, but I'm facing internal struggles.

But demons are fighting

Despite tears drying, inner struggles or "demons" persist.

OK, OK tears are dry now

Tears may have stopped, but internal conflicts persist.

But demons are fighting

Similar to the previous line, inner conflicts endure.


I feel like I'm floating through existence

I feel detached, as if floating through existence.

I feel like I'm living after time

I feel like I'm living beyond the constraints of time.

I feel like I'm forced to break the silence

I feel compelled to break the silence.

Is that a crime? Is that a crime?

Questioning if expressing oneself is considered a crime.

I feel like we're all following shadows

Sense of collective aimlessness, following shadows without direction.

And shadows they don't know where to go

Shadows symbolize confusion or lack of direction.

I feel like I'm waiting for tomorrow

Anticipating the future while the present slips away.

While today wastes away

The current moment is being wasted.


It's not that I don't know

Recognition that the speaker is aware.

It's not that I can't see

Understanding and awareness exist.

It's not that I haven't noticed

Acknowledgment of observation.

It's driving me insane

The situation is causing distress or frustration.

It's not that I don't know

Confirming awareness of the situation.

It's not that I can't see

Reiteration of understanding.

It's just the way I feel

The speaker is describing their emotional state.

It's just the way I feel

Reiteration of the emotional state.


I feel like a child without a father

The speaker feels abandoned or lacking guidance.

And mama tries oh lord knows mama tries

Mention of maternal efforts to provide support.

I feel like the world is on my shoulder

Feeling overwhelmed as if carrying the world's burdens.

I wonder why, wonder why

Expressing curiosity about the challenges faced.

I feel like I'm not the only one who's frustrated

Sensation of shared frustration with others.

I feel like something's going wrong

Perception of something going wrong in the world.

I can't escape it

Feeling trapped, unable to escape the negativity.

I feel like the destinies of those meant

Belief that those destined for greatness are hindered by deceitful individuals, leading to chaos.

To be the best

Suggesting a corrupt influence on those meant to excel.

Are in the hands of liars now the world is on fire

The world is in chaos due to the actions of dishonest people.


I feel like we're not angry enough

A sense of collective apathy or lack of indignation.

That while we wait, time's ticking away

Time is passing while collective anger remains insufficient.

I feel there's gonna be an explosion

An anticipation of a powerful outburst or societal upheaval.


It's not that I don't know

Reiteration of awareness.

It's not that I can't see

Reiteration of understanding.

It's not that I haven't noticed

Reiteration of observation.

It's driving me insane

The situation is causing mental distress.

It's not that I don't know

Confirming awareness of the situation.

It's not that I can't see

Reiteration of understanding.

It's just the way I feel

Restating the emotional state.

It's just the way I feel

Reiteration of the emotional state.
