walk the walk
Gaz Coombes Lyrics

Weird times
These are unusual times.

It's a fantasy
The world we see is a made-up reality.

All you read in the magazines
The news that you get from magazines is not true.

Mother Nature in a top hat
The world is disguised, and you cannot tell the truth from a lie.

(Baby you're the one you can walk the walk)
You have the strength and ability to handle the truth, even when others cannot.

But they don't realize
Others don't understand the true nature of the world.

Sitting tight
People are too comfortable with the status quo.

In the compound
Society is isolated, and people only interact with others in their immediate circle.

Sweatpants, sipping on a cocktail
People are too relaxed and not taking action.

(Baby you're the one you can walk the walk)
You can take action and make a difference.

He's got a finger on the button
Someone in power has control over the world's fate.

Ready to delete
This person is ready to make drastic decisions that could affect the world.

I'm through looking out at the darkness
I no longer want to be ignorant of the truth.

But don't get hypnotized by the lies
Don't be tricked into believing the lies that the world presents.

It's all gonna crumble under you
The world is going to fall apart, and we need to prepare for that.

Like when the wall came down
Similar to when the Berlin Wall fell and people were unsure what the future would hold.

And there were no sides
We need to band together as people, and not divide ourselves by culture, country, or belief.

But I'm in a time of separation
Despite wanting unity, I feel isolated and alone in my beliefs.

Paralysed by our own nation
Nationalism is causing people to be stuck and unable to progress as a society.

Blurred lines, another war game
Politics are becoming too ambiguous and complicated, and can lead to war.

(Baby you're the one you can walk the walk)
Despite these problems, you have the strength to make a difference in this world.

Hook, line and sinker
People are being easily fooled and caught up in false narratives.

Back at the compound
People are returning back to their comfort zones and ignoring the outside world.

All the lions start circling
People are becoming more aggressive and competitive towards each other.

The next man playing out his fantasy
People are pretending to have power and control, but in reality, they are just playing make-believe.

(Baby you're the one you can walk the walk)
You have the potential and ability to take control and create real change.

I'm through looking out at the darkness
I refuse to stay in the dark any longer.

Don't get hypnotized by the lies
Be aware and critical of the world around us.

And I don't see them wonder
I don't see other people questioning the state of the world.

('Cause when it comes around)
(When the world changes)

It's gonna be too late, too late
Unless we change soon, it will be too late to fix our problems.

We're stuck looking out at the darkness
We are trapped in our ignorance and uncertainty.

But don't get hypnotized by the lies
We need to be aware of our own ignorance and strive for knowledge.

It's all gonna crumble under you
The world is not as stable as it seems, and may soon fall apart.

Like when the wall came down
Similar to when the Berlin Wall fell and people were unsure what the future would hold.

And there were no sides
We need to band together as people, and not divide ourselves by culture, country, or belief.

(Baby you're the one you can walk the walk)
Despite these challenges and problems, you can make a difference in the world and help create a better future.
