Lyrics

I want to live in a world where no one suffers

I desire to exist in a world without anyone experiencing suffering.

I want to leave the world a better place

I aspire to leave a positive impact on the world before I depart.

I don't know if I'm strong enough

I am uncertain if I possess the strength required for this endeavor.

Or what I'm willing to give up

I am unsure about what I am willing to sacrifice or give up for this cause.

But if we work together

Collaboration can lead to significant improvements if we join forces.

Then we can make things so much better

Working together has the potential to make a substantial positive impact.


Call me a hypocrite

I may be labeled a hypocrite for initiating positive changes.

For setting my world into motion

I set things in motion to improve my surroundings.

To be honest, I'm sick of it

I'm weary of my own actions and their consequences, even the seemingly minor ones like using soap.

Even my soap is killing the ocean

My daily choices, like using soap, contribute to environmental harm, and this realization troubles me.

I tread lightly, act kindly

I take cautious steps and treat others with kindness, leaving minimal negative impacts.

And leave nothing footprints

I strive to have no harmful impact on the environment, leaving behind no negative traces.

But by being here, I'm sincere,

My presence here is genuine, but I acknowledge my own culpability.

But I'm guilty

Despite good intentions, I feel guilty for the unavoidable negative consequences of my existence.


Is it down to the individual?

Contemplating whether individual actions hold significance and if we possess true free will.

Do we have free will?

Questioning the extent of our personal autonomy and decision-making capacity.


Everybody's in the same boat

Everyone is facing the same challenges or problems.

But now it feels like we're sinking

The current situation feels dire, as if we are collectively sinking or failing.

We've got nothing if we've got no hope

Without hope, our collective efforts are meaningless; it's crucial for a positive outcome.

We can choose the direction

We have the ability to choose the path we take while acknowledging the damage we've caused.

That we're going, while owning

While determining our direction, we must take responsibility for the harm we have inflicted.

The damage we have done

We must acknowledge and take responsibility for the environmental damage caused.

Gone are the days of our old ways

The past ways are no longer acceptable; a new phase, possibly a struggle, has just begun.

The battle has just begun

A metaphorical battle for positive change is in its initial stages.


Is it down to the individual?

Reiterating the inquiry about individual impact and free will.

Do we have free will?

Pondering the extent of personal freedom and decision-making ability.

Can we live in perfect harmony?

Considering the possibility of living in perfect harmony despite individual challenges.

Can we sew the seeds?

Questioning if we can sow the seeds of positive change for a better future.
