Seasons
C-Clays Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We're watching, watching
The revolution, those screams
Time is running, running
The revolution, those screams
And we're waiting, waiting
Is it the very end of something
Bitches at the front door
I got power, go to war
Leave me money, soldiers so I'll lay'em down, kill the poor
Tyrants want the greedy whore
Shake'em down, gimme more
The rich they paid protection plays the underscore
Give me yours
Grab onto the screams and wars
The private lives are at the core
Visions soar in my mind
All seeing I was blind
Blocking out the sunshine
Eternally, we be fine, globally
We decline anytime we mistreat
Murder everywhere we turn
Birth of a nation
Slaves on plantations
Traps keep us facin'
Distracted, rat-racin'
Poisonous, we taste it
Uncover truth let's face it
I'll be in the basement
Rallying for placement
Changing lives is basic
The future's now don't waste it
Get up off the matrix
(Oh oh oh oh)
Is it the last time, we talk together
The last time, we watch each other
The revolution those screams
Time is running, running
The revolution those screams
And we're waiting, waiting
Kings season,
Retreating slowly
Kings season watching scream rising
Is it the very end of something, or is it just the beginning
Watch it burning, watch them falling
Watch it burning hey hey
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
I'll be in the basement,
Rallying for placement, changing lives is basic,
The future's now don't waste it, get up off the matrix.
The song “Seasons” by C-Clays is a powerful and reflective anthem about change, revolution, and the passing of power from one regime to the next. The lyrics begin by describing the passing of power as the kings leave and the revolution begins. The imagery of screams and time running creates a sense of urgency and chaos, emphasizing the gravity of the situation. The singer questions whether this upheaval is the end of something or a new beginning, leaving the listener to ponder what the future holds.
The middle verses of the song are intense, painting a picture of a corrupt society in which greed and power rule. The lines “I got power, go to war, Leave me money, soldiers so I'll lay'em down, kill the poor” show the dark side of leadership, where those with power are willing to sacrifice others for their own gain. The singer speaks of a society where murder is everywhere, and the birth of a nation is corrupted by slavery and oppression. But even in the face of this darkness, the singer vows to fight for change, to rally for placement, and make a difference. The final chorus echoes the sense of urgency and the need for change as the listener is urged to get up off the matrix and make a difference.

And we're waiting, waiting
The public is waiting for the change that we all know needs to happen
