Describes the impact of a dark and destructive force, emphasizing resistance.

We can be bigger than this

Posits the potential for a collective entity to surpass current difficulties.

It's time to wake the fire in me. Nothing here on earth can hold me down, here on earth we stand our ground. I just can't help but be ashamed that we didn't take these steps in the first place

Calls for awakening personal passion and resilience against earthly challenges.

So I refuse to live this life and have nothing to show, I'm sick of watching it come down and holding onto hope that someone else is gonna save the world. It can't wait, but we can fix it with the choices we make

This is home and I can't let it go but it's dying slow. If we don't stop, we'll let it go up in smoke

Can't see the future, but I refuse to stay on my knees

It's on me

Reemphasizes the individual's accountability for addressing societal issues.

It's up to us to change the problems we see

Reaffirms the collective responsibility to address and resolve visible problems.

That sinking feeling in my head; this planet's slow and painful death. I try to put it all in perspective but I can't. Our world has gone to shit and we just sat there and we let it tear to bits

Conveys a profound sense of despair regarding the slow destruction of the planet due to human inaction.
