This song has some very dark lyrics about all what is wrong with the earth. Raury sings/spits all of this over a very happy beat. Childish Gambino does
the same thing in his song 3005.
[Verse 1]
There's people lying
Children crying
Wonder why this earth is dying
Yeah she's dying, yeah
There is preachers sinning
Evil winning, times i fear this
World is ending, world is ending, yeah
The kings descending
Breezes winding, clouds now raining
Thunderstromin' Armageddon yeah
Don't be surprised
But be aware of how you lived
And who you are
And most of all where
Oh, where
[Hook]
Where you are
When kingdom come
Where you are
When kingdom come
[Verse 2]
I seen the news and seen the lies
They kill my kind
The system's blind, the system's blind yeah
So peel your eyes, don't close your mind
Cause human kind must grow benign or slowly die, extinction
There's truth and lies in death and life
The masses cry, but heaven smiles, always
The trees they grow
The leaves belong to mother nature
Not to man to legalize it, yeah
[Bridge]
If you live life
And live so high
Then why, oh why
Not keep in mind
[Hook (x2)]
Where you are
When kingdom come
Where you are
When kingdom come
