Save the World
Rising Above the Struggle: TreShawn Ramos' Anthem for Resilience
Lyrics
I'm just tryna keep my head off the ground
I am attempting to lift my spirits and not succumb to despair.
Stressing through the pain of the world
Feeling the burden of the world's troubles and challenges.
All round
The struggles and difficulties are widespread and affect everyone.
See the cops put a gun to our brains
Observing law enforcement using force against us.
Don’t give a fuck about what we have to say
Authorities ignoring our voices and concerns.
No...
An emphatic refusal or disbelief in the situation.
They just want us underground
Feeling marginalized and pushed to the fringes of society.
I’m just tryna make a way for the youth
Striving to create opportunities for the younger generation.
Can’t give a damn about what they think now
Not caring about others' opinions or judgments.
No...
A firm assertion that external forces cannot hinder progress.
They can’t stop me now
Overcoming obstacles and resistance.
All this hating shit need to stop
Expressing a strong desire for an end to negativity and animosity.
Can’t see my brothers get fucked up by the cops
Resisting the mistreatment of siblings by law enforcement.
Just like they did to Trayvon Martin
Referencing the tragic fate of Trayvon Martin due to prejudice.
Young man got shot more than twice
Highlighting the excessive use of force resulting in harm.
Man this world is coming to a end
A bleak perspective on the world's future.
All this shit they be doing to young black kids
Condemning systemic mistreatment of young black individuals.
They be hating on who we are
Facing discrimination for one's identity.
But we just gotta stand tall and keep the fight strong
Encouraging resilience and persistence in the face of adversity.
I’m trust tryna keep my head off the ground
Reiterating the effort to maintain a positive mindset.
Struggling through the pain of the world
Struggling with the pervasive pain experienced globally.
All around
Emphasizing the widespread nature of suffering.
I don’t wanna see my sis run from opps
Fearing for the safety of a sister due to external threats.
Just because they see her walking down the block
Concern about potential harm based on unjustified assumptions.
No...
Reiterating the threat of violence against women.
They just tryna gun her down
Expressing the fear of harm directed towards oneself.
I’m trust tryna keep my head off the ground
Continuing efforts to stay positive despite challenges.
Struggling through the pain of the world
Struggling with the collective pain felt globally.
All around (No..)
Reiterating the pervasive nature of challenges.
See the cops put a gun to our brains
Witnessing the use of force by authorities against us.
Don’t give a fuck about what we have to say
Highlighting the disregard for our voices and opinions.
No...
Reiterating the desire to suppress and marginalize.
They just want us underground
Feeling the pressure to conform to societal expectations.
I’m just tryna make a way for the youth
Striving to create opportunities for the younger generation.
Can’t give a damn about what they think now
Remaining indifferent to external judgments or criticisms.
No...
A firm assertion that external forces cannot hinder progress.
They can’t stop me now
Overcoming obstacles and resistance.
