Lyrics
I’m hittin’ heavy, I’m swingin’ low
I am hitting hard, and I am going at a slow pace
Slow and steady, I don’t know
Taking my time, unsure of the path
Who can go the distance when karma comes gunnin’ for you?
Questioning who can endure when consequences catch up
You can say what you want baby, but there ain’t nothin’ we can do
Acknowledging limitations and the inevitability of certain situations
Now the preacher man’s yellin’ that Book of Revelation
Reference to a preacher warning about the end times in the Bible
And Uncle Sam’s sellin’ us a one-world nation
Commenting on global political trends toward a unified world
Banks hedgin’ bets for the next generation
Speculating on financial institutions securing future investments
And all while buildin’ us a big space station
Highlighting the contrast of building space exploration amidst other concerns
I bought a Chevy in Idaho
Personal experience of purchasing a Chevy in Idaho
Hey where I’m headed, I don’t know
Uncertainty about the destination
But my existence is a glorified story of the truth
Expressing one's life as an embellished narrative of reality
They can talk all they want baby, but that’s all they ever do
Dismissing the chatter of others as mere talk without action
Now the preacher man’s yellin’ that Book of Revelation
Reiteration of the preacher warning about the end times
And Uncle Sam’s sellin’ us a one-world nation
Reinforcing the idea of a globalized world sold by authorities
Banks hedgin’ bets for the next generation
Referencing financial institutions securing future investments again
And Wall Street’s stirrin’ up the whole situation
Connecting Wall Street to the overall turbulent situation
So come and catch me, if you can
Challenging others to catch the speaker, perhaps implying escape
Maybe Egypt or Iran
Mentioning countries like Egypt and Iran as potential destinations
Startin’ revolutions baby, hey that’s what I do
Stating a commitment to starting revolutions
You can be who you want momma, but it’s better being you
Encouraging individual authenticity despite external pressures
Now the preacher man’s yellin’ that Book of Revelation
Repetition of the preacher's warning about the end times
And Uncle Sam’s sellin’ us a one-world nation
Reiterating the concept of a globally unified nation
Banks hedgin’ bets for the next generation
Repeating the idea of financial institutions securing future investments
And Bobby’s upset cuz there ain’t nothin’ changin’
Highlighting discontent with the lack of change
There ain’t nothin’ changin’
Emphasizing the stagnation or lack of progress
There ain’t nothin’ changin’
Repeating the theme of no significant changes
And Bobby’s upset cuz there ain’t nothin’ changin
Expressing frustration with the status quo
