Gone
Embracing Change: Escaping Life's Rat Race
Lyrics
Everywhere I look the world is changing
Observation of a dynamic world undergoing changes.
Racing even faster as the days pass
Highlighting the rapid pace of change in the world.
Life just slips away
Expressing the fleeting nature of life.
As we miss the days
Reflecting on missed opportunities or moments in life.
'Cause we're gone, gone
Emphasizing the inevitability of departure or change.
Every day I spend inside the rat race
Describing the impact of daily life within a competitive society.
Steals a little peace of mind that I can't replace
Acknowledging the gradual erosion of peace of mind.
When does it all end
Pondering the uncertainty of when the challenges will end.
A slave to 9 AM
Expressing the feeling of being tied to a conventional work schedule.
'Cause we're gone, gone
Reiterating the inevitability of change or departure.
If we are gonna try to change it
Advocating for proactive efforts to bring about change.
We are gonna have to slow it down
Stressing the need to slow down in order to effect change.
If we are gonna try to change it
Repeating the call for a deliberate and measured approach to change.
Slow, slow, slow it down
Emphasizing the importance of a gradual pace in the process of change.
If we are gonna try to change it
Reiterating the necessity of a cautious and gradual approach.
We are gonna have to slow it down
Reinforcing the idea that change requires a deliberate slowing down.
If we are gonna try to change it
Continuing to emphasize the importance of a measured pace of change.
Slow, slow, slow it down
Repeating the call for a gradual and careful approach to change.
I'm not giving up hope, not giving up yet, not giving my life to somebody else
Affirming resilience and determination to hold onto hope and individuality.
I'm not giving up hope, not giving up yet, not giving my life
Reiterating the commitment to hope and personal autonomy.
If we are gonna try to change it
Re-emphasizing the need for proactive efforts to bring about change.
We are gonna have to slow it down
Restating the idea that change requires a deliberate slowing down.
If we are gonna try to change it
Reinforcing the call for a measured and gradual approach to change.
We are gonna have to slow
Concluding with a final emphasis on the importance of slowing down for change.
