Tomorrows Bad Seeds Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Feel the force of the motion sway from your heavenly rays
Nowadays seems so strange i feel like i'm trapped in a cage
Of babylon's labyrinth caught in this rat race walk a path of
Righteousness amongst this mundane maze time to change
Their tower of power leading to way games for your mind is
The most precious thing that you can taste blessed with this
This eye don't let it go to waste
(chorus)
And if it was up to me will i would choose simplicity and if it
Was up to you you'd just complicate things like you usually
Do and if it just stayed the same because you know that some
Things they may never change don't you rain on my parade
Just spend most of your mind's time in the shade...
I'll tip the scale when it's half empty overcome the vex with
Positivity i'll toast the glass if you'll pour the wine if we work
Hand - in - hand it would be just fine because nothing is what
It seems in this day - in - age we've got to overcome these trife
Times to turn a new page we must burn down babylon and
Watch it's fire blaze blessed with your third eye don't let it go to waste
(chorus 2x's)

In the verse, the artist begins by asking for guidance to navigate through the "perilous haze," suggesting a sense of confusion and uncertainty in the world. They continue by describing a feeling of being trapped like in a cage, with life resembling a maze. The artist suggests that people must walk a path of righteousness to change, suggesting that the current state of things is far from ideal. They then warn against the danger of allowing others to control our minds, encouraging listeners to value their perspective and use their "third eye" to see things clearly.
The chorus reiterates the importance of simplicity, with the artist wishing for things to be as uncomplicated as possible. They suggest that many people tend to complicate things, likely referring to the societal pressure to constantly achieve more and strive for success. The artist also acknowledges that things may never change, but it's important to maintain a positive outlook and not "rain on my parade." The final lines of the chorus suggest finding peace by spending time in the shade, perhaps reflecting on the need for rest and relaxation in a busy world.
Overall, the song R.O.M.P is a reflection on the struggles of modern life, encouraging listeners to prioritize simplicity, positivity, and unity in a world full of confusion and complexity.
