Lyrics
Politicians knocking at my door
Politicians are seeking my attention or support.
Heads of nations rotten to the core
The leaders of countries are deeply corrupt or morally compromised.
Tell me how are you gonna change the world
Questioning the ability to enact change globally without love.
When you haven't got the love
Without love, it's challenging to affect meaningful change.
I still remember your promise from the past
Recollection of a previous unfulfilled promise.
And here you are with another that won't last
Disappointment in encountering another untrustworthy promise.
You tell me how you're gonna change the world
Questioning the potential for change without love.
When you haven't got the love
Emphasizing the necessity of love to drive change.
Don't shake me by the hand
Don't deceive by superficial gestures.
Pretend to understand
Feigned comprehension without genuine understanding.
To get into my mind
Understanding requires embracing the speaker's perspective.
You got to get into my groove
Understanding necessitates alignment with the speaker's vibe or mindset.
Step into my shoes
Experience the speaker's challenges firsthand.
Come and feel my blues
Feel the emotional hardships faced by the speaker.
To comprehend my life
To truly grasp the speaker's life, one must immerse in their groove.
You got to get into my groove
Reiteration of the need to align with the speaker's vibe for comprehension.
You say you're standing for the hungry and the weak
Claiming to support the vulnerable, but insincerity is evident.
But your words are as hollow as the glory that you seek
Words lack authenticity akin to the emptiness of the sought-after recognition.
Tell me how you're gonna change the world
Challenging the capacity to enact change without love.
When you haven't got the love
Highlighting the necessity of love for effective change.
You want the world to see your point of view
Desire for one's perspective to be acknowledged.
But your eyes are closed to the pain we must undo
Blindness to prevalent suffering or problems.
Tell me how you're gonna change the world
Questioning the ability to bring change without love.
When you haven't got the love
Reinforcing the significance of love for impactful change.
Before you tell the world about the things that they should do
Encouragement to introspect before advising others.
Stop and take a look what's going on inside of you
Urging self-reflection before influencing others.
Divisions are the consequences of the games you play
Highlighting that personal actions contribute to societal divisions.
Look inside you
Encouraging self-examination to address personal contributions to issues.
