Open Your Eyes
Awaken to Truth: Challenging Societal Illusions
Lyrics
Sell their lies to whoever pays
Selling deceptive narratives to those willing to pay
Always caught up in the craze
Consistently immersed in popular trends
Wanting what we ain't got
Desiring what is not currently possessed
Oh won't ya stand up now, open your eyes
Encouraging awareness and understanding, urging people to see the truth
House to car, no second thought
Indifferent attitude towards basic needs such as shelter and transportation
Air we breathe, the things we bought
The air we breathe and material possessions define our existence
Pace of the world, we're all caught
Caught up in the fast-paced nature of the world
Oh won't ya stand up now and open your eyes
Encouraging action and awareness through open-mindedness
People, come together
Advocating for unity among people
People, we can do better, woah
Expressing the potential for improvement collectively
People, would ya take a look around, yeah
Calling attention to the need to observe and understand the surroundings
We can't get by
Unable to survive or thrive
Stealing from the sky, living in this lie
Metaphorically taking resources from the sky, living in a false reality
We can't get by
Unable to continue existing
Running blind from the light
Escaping from reality without clear direction
Using water 'til the wells run dry
Exploiting resources until they are depleted
Chopping trees for another high-rise
Destroying nature for the construction of tall buildings
Can't even see through smog in the sky
Impaired visibility due to pollution
Oh won't ya stand up now, open your eyes
Encouraging awareness and understanding, urging people to see the truth (repeated)
Sinking with rising tides
Sinking along with the increasing sea levels
Shoot to kill, can't hear the cries
Engaging in lethal actions without being attentive to the suffering
How many die until we fight
Questioning the number of casualties before taking a stand
Oh won't ya stand up now, open your eyes
Encouraging awareness and understanding, urging people to see the truth (repeated)
People, come together
Advocating for unity among people (repeated)
People, we can do better, woah
Expressing the potential for improvement collectively (repeated)
People, would ya take a look around
Calling attention to the need to observe and understand the surroundings (repeated)
We can't get by
Unable to survive or thrive (repeated)
Stealing from the sky, living in this lie
Metaphorically taking resources from the sky, living in a false reality (repeated)
We can't get by
Unable to continue existing (repeated)
Running blind from the light
Escaping from reality without clear direction (repeated)
We can't get by
Unable to survive or thrive (repeated)
Stealing from the sky, living in this lie
Metaphorically taking resources from the sky, living in a false reality (repeated)
We can't get by
Unable to continue existing (repeated)
Running blind from the light
Escaping from reality without clear direction (repeated)
We can't get by
Unable to survive or thrive (repeated)
Stealing from the sky, living in this lie
Metaphorically taking resources from the sky, living in a false reality (repeated)
We can't get by
Unable to continue existing (repeated)
Running blind from the light
Escaping from reality without clear direction (repeated)
Can't get, can't get, can't get by
Expressing the difficulty of overcoming the current situation
Ooh can't get by
Exclaiming the inability to overcome challenges
Can't get by
Reiterating the difficulty of overcoming the current situation (repeated)
