Die Another Day
Surviving the Concrete Jungle
Lyrics
It's like I wake up screaming on a sunny day
Feeling intense distress despite the seemingly pleasant circumstances
And I can see no more this sweet illusion
Realizing the falseness of a comforting but deceptive belief or perception
The concrete jungle
Metaphorically referring to a harsh, unforgiving urban environment
The shooting gallery
Describing a place where danger and risk are constant
Over and over again
Repeatedly experiencing a distressing situation
No!
An emphatic rejection or refusal
Whao hear my calling
Pleading for attention or assistance
Can you hear me
Checking if communication is possible
My bridges are burning
Metaphorically referring to irreversible actions
There’s no turning back
No possibility of going back
Going down in flames
Heading towards failure or destruction
Demons in my veins
Feeling tormented or haunted
Live for tomorrow
Choosing to continue living despite difficulties
(Die another day)
Accepting the possibility of dying but persisting for another chance at life
Guilty with no crime
Feeling culpable or responsible without evidence of wrongdoing
Aiming to survive
Striving to survive against all odds
Live for tomorrow
Opting for survival despite challenges
(Die another day)
Embracing life despite the potential for death
It's like I pull the curtain over barricade
Symbolically shielding oneself from harsh realities
To be the witness of the street survival
Bearing witness to the struggle for existence in the streets
The main attraction of insecurity
Highlighting the attraction of instability
It ain’t got nothing on me
Feeling unaffected by the threats of insecurity
No!
An emphatic refusal or rejection
Whao hear my calling
Reiterating a plea for attention or aid
Can you hear me
Asking for confirmation of being heard
My bridges are burning
Describing irreversible actions
There’s no turning back
No chance of reversing the course
Going down in flames
Heading towards failure or destruction
Demons in my veins
Feeling tormented or haunted
Live for tomorrow
Choosing to continue living despite difficulties
(Die another day)
Accepting the possibility of dying but persisting for another chance at life
Guilty with no crime
Feeling culpable or responsible without evidence of wrongdoing
Aiming to survive
Striving to survive against all odds
Live for tomorrow
Opting for survival despite challenges
(Die another day)
Embracing life despite the potential for death
Going down in flames
Heading towards failure or destruction
Demons in my veins
Feeling tormented or haunted
Live for tomorrow
Choosing to continue living despite difficulties
(Die another day)
Accepting the possibility of dying but persisting for another chance at life
Guilty with no crime
Feeling culpable or responsible without evidence of wrongdoing
Aiming to survive
Striving to survive against all odds
Live for tomorrow
Opting for survival despite challenges
(Die another day)
Embracing life despite the potential for death
