Why do we continue this endless cycle?
Our world’s on loop.
We gather our coups,
We think we’ve learnt from the past,
At last we try to change for the future.
Do you think before Dunkirk,
We knew it wouldn't work?
Basking in ignorance,
A cycle of wickedness.
Trying to break free from the chains,
Nothing to say to the man
But, STOP.
We can end this circle,
Can’t put us in a block.
The bars only made us stronger,
You can't lock the heart away.
We’ve been feeling the pain,
And it’s time to stand up and say…
Why do we continue this endless cycle?
Our world’s on loop.
Digging and mining,
Working to a certain timing,
Continuous repeat otherwise we’ll be out on the street.
We’re becoming rusty machines,
Desperate to fulfill the man’s needs.
Cogs working in elbow grease,
Fumes rising whilst we stand underneath,
Clouds of black. Can’t dare to slack,
Pile up cold coal into thousands of sacks.
Pull out a pack, light it up to smoke some tobacc.
Oh this endless cycle we continue,
Our world’s on loop.
Does the voice of humanity even exist?
Though we protest and strike,
Standing side by side alike,
We get knocked down onto the ground.
Everything unravels into violence,
They are determined to make us silent.
We retaliate and lose our meaning,
The government don’t understand what we’re feeling.
And we continue this endless cycle,
Our world’s on loop.
The innocence of our world has dispersed.
It’s hard to explain in a verse,
But our youth has no worth.
There is no more truth,
This society is not where we’re meant to be.
We’ve evolved into selfishness and greed,
Grown into weeds,
When we could have been trees.
The solution is in our hands,
They won’t listen to our demands.
We are the end to this suffering,
But stuck in buffering,
Continuing this endless cycle,
Our world’s on loop.
Where is our personality,
We’ve lost our individuality.
No originality,
Confused in the depths of humanity.
Controlled education has reduced our speculation,
What’s become of the generation leads to no celebration.
The illusion of choice makes us think we’ve got a voice,
However it’s all lost.
And at what cost?
I’m saying this in disgust...
This endless cycle is a *****,
Our world is stuck on loop.
The lecture we heard from our parents:
Grow and pay rent,
Pick yourself up,
Don’t expect the cup to be half full because it’s half empty.
You’re a slave to the system,
It’s been said before but we decide to ignore,
And what for?
Once you fling open the door,
You’re supposed to go,
Go through and beyond into the unknown.
But we are drawn to stay put,
And not step a foot,
Out of this circle.
This endless cycle.
We make our demands,
The solution is in our hands.
It’s hard to explain in a verse,
The innocence in our world has dispersed.
We’ve been feeling the pain,
And you can’t lock our hearts away.
