October
October Reflections: Unveiling a Decade of Deception
Lyrics
i woke up screaming
Expression of a distressing experience upon waking.
just the other night
Recently, the speaker experienced a frightening episode during sleep.
awakened by another dream
Disturbed from sleep by a recurring dream.
i thought back to '80
Reflecting on the year 1980.
thinking what would've happened
Contemplating alternative outcomes of events in 1980.
if everything wasn't how it seemed
Questioning the accuracy of perceptions from that time.
ten years the lie survives
A lie endures for a decade.
fucking with american lives
Criticizing manipulation that impacts American lives.
reduced to pawns in a power play
People reduced to pawns in a political strategy.
too long they've suffered
Long-lasting suffering endured by individuals.
not for america
Highlighting suffering not for the nation but for personal gain.
just for a lead on election day
Suffering endured merely for gaining an advantage on election day.
my october my america
Expressing concern about time running out for America in October.
running out of time
Reiteration of the urgency and limited time for America.
my october my america
Repeating the connection between October and America.
read between the lines
Encouraging the audience to look for deeper meanings in the context.
