On To Something
Adam Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

See, in this demon-hunter world
All the feelings are disturbed

Yeah, people tryna tell you how to look and how to talk
People tryna tell you where to put your mind and thoughts
People tryna tell you what you doin' ain't right
People tryna tell you what to do with your life, ayy
Human entities move like useless NPC's
Losin' all serenity, weight so huge, it bends the knees, yeah
We live and we die with all our visions at night
Gone in a blink of an eye, never feeling alive
And we're all human
I think we all go through this
Feels like a voice got muted
Or trash alluded
And we all pursue things
We all wanna improve, but
If we really want things to change we need to say something
So why don't we just say something?

Mhm, yeah, yeah, come and say it with me
I am not your slave, I got my own plans
I don't care what you want me to be (oh-oh)
I don't fuckin' care what you all want me to be
Say it loud and proud
If your soul's about to drown, then take a minute
To sit down and breathe in and out (eh-ey)

Let all that bullshit fade away
Even though shit is gettin' old
And there's evil on the throne
Don't let it rain on your parade
Okay, yeah
Yeah, I know that we can find a way or two
To get right out of the dark
Fires just need to get sparked
And with time we'll make a change
Oh-oh, yeah
With fuckin' time, we'll see it change
Just don't let them make you change names
Or infect you with the hate
Think ahead and switch your brains on
Ayy, be true to you, don't play a role
If we lose who we are, there's none but us to blame it on
Ayy, improve and you let them know
We're more than our feels and we're more than our anger, yeah
We're fuckin' much more than this
You just need to notice it, so calm down and focus
If demons want to rule, they'll need a mess full of lonely kids
Which none of had a chance to ever grow up and known
It's own thoughts, so never trust the emotionless
They trade away your soul to make shit loads of dough with it
Find your way back home, catch your flow and just roll with it
All of us keep searchin', 'cause we know there's more than this
Let's go and find out what it is

Patience is all we need, patience is all
I know it's hard, especially when this pain is involved
But the rain will dissolve and will claim the rewards
Keep it up, I know there's not a thing we can't solve
Patience is all we need, patience is all
I know it's hard, especially when this pain is involved




But the rain will dissolve and will claim the rewards
Keep it up, I know there's not a thing we can't solve

I would be really interested in your take on "Wohnpark Alterlaa" in Vienna.
It is a residential park, that is home for ~10.000 people.
Some say it looks ugly. But the people living there absolutely love it.
Me too.. I lived there for 20 years. And I want to come back at some point. But who knows, if it is possible - the waiting list is years long.
It's a village in the city.
But you can let your small children play outside without any fear (I was allowed to go outside alone, when I was 5-6 years old).
There is a lot of nature, places to do sports, playgrounds, schools, kindergarden, shops, church, doctors, swimming pools and sauna in the buildings and at their top - everything is right there.
But the most important thing for me is, that there are places were you don't meet another human for a day. In a city!
And as a bonus: your neighbors opposite your flat are more than 100m away.
It's well connected to public transport and you can reach the most important parts of Vienna within 20-30min.
You absolutely don't need a car. But if you really need one, there is a garage below the buildings. That's convenient, because you can reach every point in the part (inclusive the subway) underground via the garage. This means, you can reach a lot of places in Vienna, without ever being rained on :D

For all of you Americans, here is my experience while living in a multi-family building in Prague.

Metro station, tram station and bus station are all within 5-7 minutes of walking. There is also a bus stop in two minutes which allows me to get to all of those places even faster if I wanted to.
Through public transit I can get to my university and its hospital within 20 minutes (yes, the walk included). Some of my friends live on the opposite side of the city and it takes somewhat around 30 minutes to get to them.
I can do all of this while reading a book, listening to music with propper headphones or studying before medschool.
There is a large supermarket 8 minutes from me and two medium-sized convenience stores 5 minutes from me.
There are also 3 small shops literally 30 meters from my apartment door.
Multiple cafes, pizza place and kebab place are also really close. The same goes for specific stores for the stuff I sometimes need to buy (instruments, guitar store, little place with Italian goodies).

This would be almost perfect if not for cars bellow my window, which I completely don't understand. It's literally as fast as public transportation and even slower during rush hours.

Please Adam, I love your content, but it being interrupted by a Red-White-Black Iron-Cross flag like at 2:36 is really holding me back sharing your videos with my fellow (mostly German leftist) friends.

Imagine how much progress would be made if corporate lobbying was banned. So many problems originate from it.

Hans B.

Corporate lobbying was always a thing, except other humans formed their own lobbying groups and would often successfully make a case against the corporate lobbyists once given the opportunity to voice their expressions. lobbying was a great thing for people who felt they were too insignificant to have a voice, so they would join groups that would speak to political representatives. Unfortunately one day a few decades ago, some corporate group hated that the normal people were putting up a fight and decided to offer politicians money instead or a good argument. They decided if they can't beat the people, they can just buy our politicians. In europe they have a cap on lobbying money, but america has no limit. Soon all they had to do was find a hack politician who supports their cause and pay them 30k to 80k in a one time donation to get bills passed. This is why sometimes we feel frustrated at live political sessions and scratching our heads wondering why this politician isn't listening to pure logic and common sense: it's because the money already made up its mind and nothing anyone says will ever trump logic. Imagine being the politician that takes 60k and doesn't side with the briber.

Seriously, what was the point of electing congress if their decisions aren't swayed by the public but rather specific corporate interests etc.
