Future Of Sound
Stray from the Path Feat. Cody B Ware Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Say what, say what
The youth doomed
Distracted from the war outside
The earth rotten from the core
We've seen it before
As god stumbles holding heaven in palms
I thank mom
Twenty thousand drowned with moms crying
Lying, looking straight ahead
Never around
The black sun lit the sky
Bodies covered the ground
The sound
Black sun bodies covered the ground
The sound of the future, the future of sound
Hit god with a follow
He drowned the world soul
Send the squad to kill the babies
And melt the North Pole
Watch the earth feel beauty was vein
And wanted life from the mouth
Giving it love and saying its name
Said I was god to a human that loves me
Then they judge me
Say why'd I make the world so ugly
How the hell I lose control
If I mold body, spirit and soul
They'd never know
It's just beyond me
And now it's on me
Black sun bodies covered the ground
The sound of the future, the future of sound
The song "Future of Sound" by Stray From the Path feat. Cody B Ware is a powerful commentary on the state of the world and the consequences of humanity's actions. The lyrics describe a world in which the environment has been destroyed, war rages on, and God himself is powerless to stop the destruction. The line "The earth rotten from the core" expresses the idea that the damage to the planet is deep and irreversible. The reference to "Twenty thousand drowned with moms crying" could be interpreted as a nod to the tragic reality of climate change-induced natural disasters such as hurricanes and floods, which often affect marginalized communities most severely.
The lyrics also touch on the idea of powerlessness and the inevitability of self-destruction. The line "How the hell I lose control / If I mold body, spirit and soul" seems to question the idea of human agency and control over the world. In this world, humanity has created a self-destructive cycle that cannot be stopped. The "future of sound" is the sound of destruction, the sound of bodies hitting the ground, and the sound of a world that has lost its way.
Overall, the song is a scathing critique of humanity's impact on the planet and a bleak call to action. The world described in the song is a cautionary tale of what could be if we don't take action to address the urgent problems facing us today.
