Lyrics
We still have hope that the world is going to change
We maintain optimism that global conditions will undergo a positive transformation.
And all the violence will somehow fade away
Belief that all acts of violence will eventually diminish.
And I'm gonna bet that tomorrow is just like the rest
An anticipation that the following day will be unremarkable, similar to the past.
So here it goes once again, we are put to the test
Expressing resilience as once again, we face challenges that test us.
Turn on the news, lighting the fuse
Referencing exposure to news that ignites emotions or reactions.
Watching the world just burn
Observing the world in turmoil, metaphorically described as burning.
We still have hope that the world will be a better place
Retaining hope for a more positive world.
Never to be judged by the color of your face
Advocacy for a society where judgment is not based on skin color.
We know that you've heard this a thousand times before
Acknowledging the familiarity of the message against discrimination.
But this is a struggle we can't ignore
Recognizing an ongoing struggle that cannot be overlooked.
Turn on the news, lighting the fuse
Reiteration of exposure to impactful news leading to emotional reactions.
Watching the world just burn
Witnessing the world in a state of chaos or destruction.
I'm gonna sit and watch it burn
Repeated declaration of a passive stance, choosing to observe the chaos unfold without intervention, emphasized with strong language in the last line.
I said I'm gonna sit and watch it burn
-I'm gonna sit and watch it burn
-I said I'm gonna sit and watch it burn
-I'm gonna sit and watch it burn
-I said I'm gonna sit and watch it burn
-I'm gonna sit and watch it burn
-I said I'm gonna sit and watch it fucking burn!
