Possessing a unique style of music that combines a creative blend of upbeat roots reggae with the reverberating echoes of dub, comes a man with no limit for his musical abilities. Stick Figure's music is written, recorded, and produced by Scott Woodruff, a young man from Duxbury, MA.
All of Stick Figure's songs are made by recording each instrument separately, layering several tracks on top of one another in unison.
Stick Figure recently relocated to Southern California and has picked up three new members for the live band, Brendan Dane (San Diego) on bass, Todd Smith (San Clemente) on drums and Kevin Bong (San Diego) on keys. All are incredible musicians and are surely a great addition to the Stick Figure sound. The band is currently in the process of recording their first debut album together, expecting to drop this Winter.
World on Fire
Stick Figure Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'd probably burn it all
If I had all the riches in the world
I'd surely burn it all
One in a million, money gonna kill a man
Why must we lose control?
Blaze up a fire storm, the people getting higher from
Who set the world on fire?
Who set the world on fire?
Who set the world on fire?
It was me, I set the world on fire
If I could rule the world
You know I'd love you all
If a smile could save the world
You know I'd heal you all
Burn like a wildfire, lighting up the night sky
Love is not never enough
Maybe in another life, I'll see them on the other side
The people them all singing about love
Who set the world on fire?
Who set the world on fire?
Who set the world on fire?
It was me, I set the world on fire
Who wants control over everything?
If money steals your soul then only trouble it will bring
Loving as a whole, only thing that conquers we
So let it be told, let the world them sing
Who got a light? you put them light up to them herbs
We can smoke and get more higher when your mind it gets disturbed
We can set the world on fire and then watch as it all burns
Or light it up and pass it, smoking all be taking turns
Don't ever need no money, don't need silver don't need gold
Only thing them ever wanted is some herbs that they can hold
If the only thing you loves the kind of green that you can fold
We can set it all on fire, let the fire fill your soul
Who set the world on fire?
Who set the world on fire?
Who set the world on fire?
It was me, I set the world on fire
In Stick Figure's song "World on Fire," the lyrics explore the theme of the destructive power of money and the desire for control. The opening lines set the tone of the song by stating that even if the singer had all the wealth in the world, he would still burn it all, exemplifying the reckless nature of the human desire for control and destruction. The chorus is particularly interesting as it is the singer himself who sets the world on fire, suggesting a self-awareness of the dangers of such desires.
The lyrics also touch on the need for love and unity to counteract the destruction caused by greed. The lines, "loving as a whole, only thing that conquers we," emphasize the power of love, and the need for it to overcome the forces of destruction. The song also acknowledges the role of drugs in society, with the lines, "you put them light up to them herbs, we can smoke and get more higher when your mind it gets disturbed." The song suggests that even though drugs may provide temporary relief from the problems of the world, in the end, the only real path to peace and healing is through love and unity.
