Greed
Unveiling the Poison: Yesterday's Gone Song Explores Societal Greed
Lyrics
Into this world we're born each on dealt a hand
Emphasizing how individuals enter life with different circumstances or advantages.
Into this life we're thrown like the hour in my hand
Life is unpredictable and often feels fleeting, much like the passing of time.
Some of us have money
Highlighting the disparity in wealth among people.
Some of us have pain
Not everyone faces the same challenges; some endure emotional or physical pain.
I feel it taking over like a poison through my veins
Describing the overwhelming and invasive nature of negative influences, likened to poison coursing through the body.
The politicians greed sows the seed of doubt in all our minds
Pointing out how the avarice of politicians creates uncertainty and suspicion in society.
They wear you down, just so they can sit around on high
Politicians exhaust people to maintain their position of power.
Can you see it now you've opened up you weary eyes
Encouraging awareness of the manipulative tactics used by those in authority.
Can you hear it, humanities decline
Noticing the decline of morality or quality within humanity.
Thank you for the gift of life I cant take that from you
Expressing gratitude for life while acknowledging the inability to take away someone's existence.
That you for the scar left no fuck you now we're through
An acknowledgment of the pain caused by someone, expressing resentment and the end of a relationship.
Some of us have money
Reiteration of the inequality in wealth distribution.
Some of us have pain
Reiterating that some endure significant suffering.
I feel it taking over like a bullet through my brain
Describing the overwhelming and destructive force of negative influences, akin to a bullet piercing the mind.
The politicians greed sows the seed of doubt in all our minds
Reiterating the idea that political greed induces doubt and suspicion in society.
They wear you down, just so they can sit around on high
Highlighting how authorities exhaust individuals for their own benefit.
Can you see it now you've opened up you weary eyes
Encouraging people to observe and comprehend manipulative tactics used by those in power.
Can you hear it, humanities decline
Noticing the decline of moral or societal standards within humanity.
The politicians greed sows the seed of doubt in all our minds
Reiteration of how political greed instigates doubt and uncertainty in society.
They wear you down, just so they can sit around on high
Reiterating the idea of authorities wearing down people for their own benefit.
Can you see it now you've opened up you weary eyes
Encouraging people to become aware of manipulative tactics used by those in authority.
Can you hear it, humanities decline
Noticing the decline or deterioration of humanity's values and quality.
