letra de world on fire - oddisee
[verse 1]
i said i wasn’t gon’ check on the news today
a fan of marvin, but i think i’ll make blues today
the world is outta rhythm, another cataclysm
these schisms got me shrouded deep in doubt more than usually
i feel defeated in my victories, keep my family from misery
but visibly bombarded by bombers physically sickens me
helpless as a father’s a psychological trauma
that i wouldn’t wish upon all my enemies
no honor is in these thieves, made martyrdom industry
no karma could ever equate the sum of a sentencin’
what’s left is this energy that convеrts into entropy
or worse, a vengеance wit’ no intention on endin’ things
forever is a mighty long time to ever do anything
imagine if you only ever dreamed of rememberin’
a sadness we all try to numb with the simple things
we share and we share; empathy becomes sympathy we share
[chorus]
i say the world’s on fire, and ya body is the wood
ain’t burnt yet—keep survivin’ in ya hood
blind eye threats—wouldn’t hide if i could
lines ain’t left—better mind where you stood
war goin’ on inside where it’s safe
love under siege, and them thugs near the gate
civilized k!llers in disguised as the good
but you can’t fool all the people all the time
[verse 2]
younger generations are idealist, older generations provide ceilin’s
knowin’ that their way of life is threatened, and they set on the lie
feelin’ the changin’ tide, knowin’ that the truth has arrived
fearin’ they time nearin’
behind dealin’s in public eye, and wonder why
it’s not made to hide like they other crimes
age of information ain’t a place you could summarize
and tell it how you want without a word from the other side
serial imperials, a pattern of victimhood
shootin’ ain’t euphoric if you shot—it don’t feel as good
homicidal generals a p-wn in a chess game
mongers invest in the same harm they’re protestin’
your honor, i’m guessing it won’t let up ’til net gains
they’ll have hand in death and just except that it left stains
what is there to gain from bein’ humble except pain?
no matter the life, to be alive is the blessing—sing
[chorus]
i say the world’s on fire, and ya body is the wood
ain’t burnt yet—keep survivin’ in ya hood
blind eye threats—wouldn’t hide if i could
lines ain’t left—better mind where you stood
war goin’ on inside where it’s safe
love under siege, and them thugs near the gate
civilized k!llers in disguised as the good
but you can’t fool all the people all the time
