Lyrics

Now it is time to end their games

It's time to put an end to the manipulative actions of others.

And to break forgotten promises

To disregard and no longer adhere to commitments that have been forgotten or ignored.

Feel all the anger, hate and pain

Experience and confront intense emotions such as anger, hatred, and pain.

Can you hear them scream

Sense the cries or pleas of others.

You've got to

Do the following:

Carry all your weight

Shoulder all of your burdens and responsibilities.

Set aside your only dream, child

Abandon your sole aspiration or cherished goal, especially under pressure.

Boiling house on fire

Metaphorical depiction of a situation in a state of crisis or intense turmoil.

Blame the ones that walk unseen

Hold accountable those who remain unnoticed or unseen but contribute to problems.

Like me

This includes the speaker.

Now that they sleep we must reclaim

When others are dormant or inactive, it's time to reclaim what rightfully belongs to oneself.

Let them dream about the opposite

Let them have dreams that contrast or oppose reality.

How much more can they kill and drain

Questioning the extent of harm and depletion caused by others.

Before we intervene

Before we (or someone) step in or take action.

You've got to

Follow this instruction:

Carry all your weight

Bear the weight of your responsibilities.

Set aside your only dream, child

Set aside your personal aspirations or dreams, particularly in difficult circumstances.

Boiling house on fire

Metaphorical representation of a dire or chaotic situation.

Blame the ones that walk unseen

Hold accountable those who operate unnoticed, similar to the speaker.

Like me

This includes the speaker, who also contributes to the problems.
