In a world of greed and shifting lights
Surreal life, ongoing genocides
Puppets on the news in designer suits
Who never walk the talk, not even catch the tube
Why you so silent? I thought you'd be outraged
Your human heart turned digital instead
A thousand voices on the street
A thousand souls hoping for peace
Turn off the TV, there's nothing to see
I don't believe good things ain't happening
Expecting the papers to tell you the score
Is like a right-wing man in an Afrikan store
Unlikely
Advocate for freedom, not just for one,
But for everyone under the sun
They paint the past with colors that fade
A much brighter future is on its way
Don't despair, don't follow billionaires
Influencers are distracting you again
Turn off the TV, there's nothing to see
I don't believe good things ain't happening
I don't believe good things ain't happening
Without diminishing the suffering
I don't believe good things ain't happening
'Cause your catchy smile is also making me smile
Smile
