I'm Not Waiting |
| It’s coming down on us all, time to watch the world fall |
| As we sit on the sidelines, all our pride is gone |
| But we can crush everything we’ve set in motion |
| If we choose to make a change |
| Instill in me the death of thoughtlessness, take out the sickness |
| I wanna find something much bigger than me |
| This feeling of darkness tears me down, living life under a black cloud |
| Through self-destruction, we’ll resist, we can be bigger than this |
| It’s time to wake the fire in me |
| Nothing here on Earth can hold me down, here on Earth we stand our ground |
| I just can’t help but be ashamed |
| That we didn’t take these steps in the first place |
| So I refuse to live this life and have nothing to show |
| I’m sick of watching it come down and holding onto hope |
| That someone else is gonna save the world |
| It can’t wait, but we can fix it with the choices we make |
| This is home, and I can’t let it go, but it’s dying slow |
| If we don’t stop, we’ll let it go up in smoke |
| I can’t just stand idly by and watch it die |
| It hinges on the next move, we can turn this all around if we chose |
| So I’m not waiting for you |
| I can’t see the future, but I refuse to stay on my knees |
| So I’m not waiting for you |
| It’s up to us to change the problems we see |
| It’s on me, it’s on me, it’s on me |
| I can’t see the future, but I refuse to stay on my knees |
| So I’m not waiting for you |
| It’s on me, it’s on me |
| It’s up to us to change the problems we see |
| That sinking feeling in my head |
| This planet’s slow and painful death |
| I try to put it all in perspective, but I can’t |
| Our world has gone to shit, and we just sat there, and we let it tear to bits |
| It’s time to wake the fire in me |
| Nothing here on Earth can hold me down, here on Earth we stand our ground |
| I just can’t help but be ashamed |
| That we didn’t take these steps in the first place |
| So I refuse to live this life and have nothing to show |
| I’m sick of watching it come down and holding onto hope |
| That someone else is gonna save the world |
| It can’t wait, but we can fix it with the choices we make |
| This is home, and I can’t let it go, but it’s dying slow |
| If we don’t stop, we’ll let it go up in smoke |
| I can’t just stand idly by and watch it die |
| It hinges on the next move, we can turn this all around if we chose |
| So I’m not waiting for you |
| I can’t see the future, but I refuse to stay on my knees |
| So I’m not waiting for you |
| It’s up to us to change the problems we see |
