Isn't It About Time
Awakening Humanity: Isn't It About Time We Learned?
Lyrics
Don't look now, don't heed the warning
Warning against ignoring imminent danger or issues.
It's really of no concern
Stating that the situation is not important.
Don't mind the sound
Ignore the noise or disturbance.
They're only just bombing
Suggesting that destructive actions are happening.
Anything left to burn
Almost everything has been destroyed or consumed.
Isn't it about time
Prompting a question about the appropriateness of the current situation.
Isn't it about time we learned
Expressing the need to acquire knowledge or understanding.
Fire flood familiar famine
Listing various disasters (fire, flood, famine) as common occurrences.
The jungle so far away
Referring to a distant and chaotic environment (the jungle).
Blood baked into blackened soil
Describing a gruesome scene with blood integrated into scorched earth.
How many tons a day
Pondering the quantity of destruction occurring daily.
Isn't it about time
Reiterating the question about the appropriateness of the current situation.
Isn't it about time we learned
Reiterating the need for learning and understanding.
Does it have to take so long
Questioning the duration required for learning.
Is it easy not to care
Asking if it is effortless to remain indifferent or apathetic.
Seems to me that enemies are fantasies
Suggesting that perceived threats may be mere illusions or creations of someone else's fears.
Somebody elses living nightmare
Describing the suffering of others as a nightmare.
Who gonna live, who gonna die
Raising the question of who will survive or perish.
Do you want to know
Posing a question about the desire for knowledge about life and death.
Does it give you a sense of power
Questioning the motivation behind having the power to decide others' fate.
To say yes or no
Exploring the sense of authority gained from making life and death decisions.
Isn't it about time
Reiterating the question about the appropriateness of the current situation.
Isn't it about time we learned
Reiterating the need for learning and understanding.
