Story behind the song
After hurrican Katrina, I decided to write what came to my mind. Whether we live in violence or peace, we were born with a conscience. Whether we exercise it or not is up to us, but there will be times where you will burn. Burn in the inside, from the pain and sorrow of another.... Does that make us human?
Lyrics
Acid Rain
CGSX OMEGA
[Intro]:
As the human life continues to thrive, looking for the answers to their questions. Covering up their mistakes, and ruining other's lives just to live theirs. It makes you think, what have we become? And... what will we do?...
[Verse 1]
I look into the face of death, reminiscing on all the words I'd say; a droplet catches my attention, hits my body 'till it melts way. This pain I felt, wasn't new, felt it all my life; I saw through the world we live in, everyone pays a price. The remnants of nuclear devices shower death within its range; but I feel the need of escape, like a bird within a cage. If my life was to be captured on paper, there wouldn't be many chapters; guns ringing, people dying, mothers crying, not a lot of laughter. I hear how they portray us on local media; they never concentrate when we do good, only when we killing ya. These eyes on me, melting me away like burning coal; the oxymoron is that people's anger so heated, but leaves me so cold. That's why when people talk, I tend to ignore it; but I can't avoid the world becoming a giant Sodom and Gomorrah. The Judgement... I walk mutilated to the days abroad; when we feel that all is lost; thoughts running in your mind like" Is there really God?.."
[Chorus: Sacrificial Faith]
"There's nothing we can do" says the coward... (when your melting away)
"Why even try, why even bother?"... (when we feel the pain)
"Its better to live now and die tomorrow..." (it seems so insane)
How will you respond into the sorrow? (Burning in acid rain...)
[7 second beat solo]
[Verse 2]
I go on living in the a place that's so deplorable; and why do most of my questions seem so rhetorical. I yell into the vile wind, carrying the scent of death; drops of liquid spilt, blood, happens to be from myself. I see a ocean of blood at my side, it happens to be somewhere else; people rotting away grasping at the wind like there was someone else. The government, laws, and media giving people false hope; claiming "We are here to help!" but you know they really won't. At times of hardship and tragedy, people run towards religion; believing that there's wisdom, only to be trapped inside a prisons. If I were to follow what man say, I'd be nothing more than a slave; until I reach my grave, I continue to walk my way, burning in the acid rain. The future... hold nothing more than hopes of a tomorrow; children growing in an insane society, but it's what they don't know. As I sit here, reminiscing on all the words I would say; I know the next generation will find their way.
[Verse 3]
I hear the tears of broken dreams throughout all my life; committing futile actions like swinging at the night. Venomous anger causes me to speak so caustic; and we try numb ourselves and burn holes in our stomachs like alcoholics. No one is talking, but I hear some in my head; you know what they say, a mouth that never opens never gets fed. I feel dead, but my pulse is active; you don't want to know how many scars I've inherit. You judged me quick, tossed me aside like I'm not alive; and you know one thing a man can't let go is his pride. I stopped being a child, so I mustn't cry; at this oblique society cast aside and drowned in genocide. I've suffered enough, I care less that I lie where death resides; enduring lies, you feel the same way as I. For the people suffering from pain, feeling like you died; I encourage you to join me in the struggle, through the rain that acidized
[go to chorus]
[beat fades]
