World On Fire lyrics

Performer Oddisee

World On Fire song lyrics by Oddisee official

World On Fire is a song in English

I said wasn't gonna check on the news today/

A fan of Marvin but I think I'll make blues today/

The world is out of 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 bombings physically sickens me/

Helpless as fathers 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 equal the sum of a sentencing/

What's left is this energy that converts into entropy/

Or worse it's a vengeance with no intention on ending things/

Forever is a mighty long time to ever do anything/

Imagine if you only ever dreamed of remembering/

A sadness we all try to numb with the simple things/

We share and reshare empathy becomes sympathy but yeah/


I say the world's on fire and your body is the wood/

Ain't burnt yet, keep surviving your hood/

Blind eye threats wouldn't hide it if I could/

Lines ain't left better mind where you stood/

Wars going on inside where it's safe/

Love under siege and them thugs near the gate/

Civilized killers in disguise as the good/

But you can't fool all the people all the time/


Younger generations are idealist/

Older generations provide ceilings/

Knowing that that way of life is threatened

They're set on the lie feeling/

The changing tide, knowing that the truth has arrived fearing their time nearing/

Behind dealings in public eye and wonder why/

It's not made to hide like their other crimes/

Age of information ain't the place you could summarize/

And tell it how you want, without a word from the other side/

Cereal imperials a pattern of victimhood/

Shooting ain't euphoric, if you shot it don't feel as good/

Homicidal generals a pawn in a chess game/

mongers invest in the same harm they're protesting/

Your honor I'm guessing it won't let up till net gains/

They'll have Hand in death and just except that it left stains/

What is there to get from being humble except pain/

No matter the life, to be alive is the blessing, sing/


I say the world's on fire and your body is the wood/

Ain't burnt yet, keep surviving your hood/

Blind eye threats wouldn't hide it if I could/

Lines ain't left better mind where you stood/

Wars going on inside where it's safe/

Love under siege and them thugs near the gate/

Civilized killers in disguise as the good/

But you can't fool all the people all the time/"
