Kiddo
Rising Despair: The Headphønes' Tale of Corruption and Lost Innocence
Lyrics
The never ending belic pictures
The endless images of war and conflict
Surround every day in my thoughts
These images surround my thoughts every day
The life of the burning people changed
The lives of the people affected by war have changed
When all of this begun
This change started at some point in the past
My crazy poor little kiddo
Referring to a beloved person, possibly a child
Turns to a lord with American guns
That beloved person transforms into a powerful figure influenced by American military might
What happened with the old good people Ohh
Questioning the fate of the old, good-hearted people
What happened if they are gone
Wondering about the consequences if those good people are no longer present
The fancy corrupted tipos
Reference to deceptive and corrupt individuals
Only tells the little they done
These individuals only reveal a small part of their actions
They hope of a new beggining
Expressing hope for a new beginning
They hope of a new dawn
Expecting a new and positive era to emerge
What happened with my little son
Concern about the speaker's son and his transformation
What happened with his lovely soul
Questioning the changes in the son's once lovely soul
He entered in the devil businesses
Indicating the son's involvement in morally questionable activities
Only for good and gold
Engaging in such activities for the sake of good and wealth
My crazy poor little kiddo
Reiterating the transformation of the beloved person (kiddo) into a sadistic character
Turns to a sadistic with American guns
This sadistic transformation influenced by American military power
Corruption merge in the palace
Corruption infiltrates the highest levels of power
While the fire gently burns it all
While destructive forces subtly consume everything
I'm trying to distract myself
The speaker attempts to divert attention from the grim reality
But the river still covered in blood
Despite efforts, the reality of bloodshed persists
The blood brings more war
Bloodshed begets more conflict and war
The war brings more blood
This continuous cycle perpetuates more bloodshed
