Lyrics
First light
Beginning or dawn
Warm, cold
Contrasting sensations or states
Suffocate
Feeling trapped or overwhelmed
Breathe in, breathe out
Inhaling and exhaling, the basic rhythm of life
The long wait has come to an end
A period of anticipation has ended
Fall down
Falling down, facing challenges
Rise up
Rising above difficulties
Walk along
Moving forward in life
First words
First expressions or communication
A new child has been born
The birth of a new individual
First sight into this world
Initial view or experience of life
What will it see?
What will the newborn perceive?
Since generations we ruin this world
Humanity's historical pattern of damaging the world
This is our legacy
Our collective inheritance
This little child never had a choice
The child is born without a say in its fate
Until now it had no voice
Previously voiceless, now potentially vocal
What will happen if it gets the chance?
Contemplation on the child's future choices
Will it accept these circumstances?
Speculation on how the child will react to circumstances
A generation war is imminent
An upcoming conflict between generations
We have to prepare for our judgement
Preparation for facing consequences
We must take responsibility
Call for acknowledging responsibility
In the end we are just too many
Reflection on the overpopulation issue
Go to school
Encouragement to pursue education
Graduate
Completion of studies
Think about
Contemplation on personal growth
Being independent
Striving for self-sufficiency
But it’s to late
Realization of missed opportunities
Get into debt
Accumulation of debts
Be reliant on
Dependence on external influences
The puppet master
Metaphorical control by external forces
