The State of the World Today.

[Verse 1]
Towers fell and the skies turned gray,
We learned the cost we all must pay.
Wars were waged in desert sand,
Leaders lied with a steady hand.
A global crash, the markets burned,
Jobs were lost and tables turned.
Phones got smart, and so did we,
But freedom’s not what it used to be.
[Pre-Chorus]
We’re scrolling fast, but we’re standing still,
Searching for truth in a world of spill.
Voices cry out but get lost in the noise,
We’re fighting for air, we’re losing our poise.
[Chorus]
This is the state of the world today,
Fire in the night, and fear in the day.
Storms are rising, the earth’s in pain,
But the human heart still beats through the rain.
We’re breaking, we’re healing, we’re finding our way,
This is the state of the world today.
[Verse 2]
Arab Spring and a billion dreams,
People stood up and broke old regimes.
Refugees walked with tears and scars,
Looking for home under foreign stars.
Brexit broke the old EU lines,
Pandemics came and stole our time.
Black Lives Mattered across the streets,
The whole world marching to broken beats.
[Pre-Chorus]
The climate’s crying and the oceans rise,
We dance on screens, but we close our eyes.
Fake news louder than the truth we need,
But hope’s still planted like a secret seed.
[Chorus]
This is the state of the world today,
Fire in the night, and fear in the day.
Storms are rising, the earth’s in pain,
But the human heart still beats through the rain.
We’re breaking, we’re healing, we’re finding our way,
This is the state of the world today.
[Bridge]
From Me Too voices to rainbow flags,
To rockets landing on ocean pads.
Crypto kings and a war in the East,
Leaders roar while the people seek peace.
AI’s speaking and the cars drive free,
But loneliness haunts the century.
[Chorus – Big & Hopeful]
This is the state of the world today,
Fire in the night, and fear in the day.
Storms are rising, the earth’s in pain,
But the human heart still beats through the rain.
We’re breaking, we’re healing, we’re finding our way,
This is the state of the world today.
[Outro]
Hold on, hold on, don’t let go,
Through shattered screens, love can still grow.
We’re the change, we light the way,
In the state of the world today.
