Madness
Professor Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(URoy)

Well I see a whole lot of madness going on around the world
so we got to teach it to the boys and we got to teach it to the girls
to be conscious in this time, back off with your madness I tell you

A whole lot of madness my friends
A whole lot of madness going on in the Earth again
This is madness my friend
We are alone let's not pretend
Once given all the pieces you'll achieve the end
That is madness my friend
We're not here to hate but only to defend
All free choices of the will of Men

(Bridge)
and if they see me walking beside them
They act like they don't see me
We all are from the same father, same family
Why can't we live in peace?

I turned around and watched him walk away
This is madness my friend
a whole lot of madness going on in the Earth right now
This is madness I said
A whole lot of madness going on in the Earth again

(Bridge)
So if you ever find me there?
Will you come to seek me as friend oh no?
Will you see the rainbows end?
Or are you blinded by your faith? Tell me, tell me now…

(URoy)
So I want America, Palestine, and Israel to have some peace in mind
And that would be so very fine like I would a tell you
back off Babylon with your ism and schism we na want no more of that
We are children of the Most High JAH
You got to understand in this time like I would a tell you

A whole lot of madness my friends
A whole lot of madness going on in the Earth again
This is madness my friends
We are alone let's not pretend
Once given all the pieces you'll achieve the end
This is madness my friend
We're not here to hate but only to defend
All free choices of the will of Men

(Bridge)
You, come looking for safety?
you will find no where at all
and so it shall be forever more
you will be barred infinitely from our society

This is madness my friend
a whole lot of madness going on in the Earth right now
This is madness I said




A whole lot of madness going on in the Earth again
(out)

Overall Meaning

The repeated phrase "This is madness my friend, a whole lot of madness going on in the Earth again" emphasizes the state of utter chaos and confusion that exists in the world, with human beings often failing to recognize each other's existence due to their differences.
