New World
Ty-Law Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It’s a new world, It’s a new world
It’s a new world, change now
In 95 it was a time when Hip Hop was thriving
Now N95 is something I gotta wear for my surviving
They want us social distancing and dividing
But people coming together like asteroids colliding
Cause they want the world of old, I’m here to say now that’s gone
No more shaking hands when we meeting
Now we cross hands and bow like Black Panther when he greeting
Cold world, somewhere a King is losing his throne
That’s why my ice grill could even turn Medusa to stone
Back against the wall I’m on point when I’m fencing
Fenced in I use the Devil’s pitchfork against him
For my family strategy hold it down like gravity
Actually I pick my friends like the fruit from the apple tree
For what I love I’ll fight you, I am my own idol
Wrote this recital on the missing pages from the bible
Cause what I say is final till my last dance like Michael
Hold the title with a rifle rap disciple I will snipe you
Me I like new, but I find true y’all just recycle
I guess what flow goes and comes around like a vinyl
It seems the world changing every time that I birth a poem
Physical jobs soon gone and everybody gotta work from home
But I’m Hip-Hop forever still or I would never promise
You got my word I’m in this for life like Arron Wallace
No one knows the ways of this new world
Only thing we can count on is…
Change
Nothing is the way it was before
The only constant in life is the…
Change
I try to stay in the present but the future draws near
I think where do we go from here it not so clear
My people won’t be living in fear
Controlled by puppeteer or ending up in the rear
It might be a zombie apocalypse like a bad dream
But I am legend Will Smith with a vaccine
We being watched locked cuz face recognition
They’ll make every prison a death race exhibition
Before it gets better it’s bound to get worse
Let’s make it work cuz greed will destroy the earth
Every work team will be replaced by machines
Or get exo frames connected to they spleens
To upgrade your performance while you after the dream
Book of Eli dystopian future man can’t read
Billionaires tycoon’s will prophet
Mixing human body parts with robotics
Type of shit you see in a marvel comics
On some Neo came out the liquid and started to vomit
Digital pay slips filters and facelifts
Download whatever you wanna learn it's the matrix
Stay plugged in or go off the grid
They’ll start to put tracking chips inside of ya kids
Barcodes on the ones that survive covid
Create a diversion so you don’t notice
But stay focus
Soulless coldness approaches
The Internet exposes new and old shit
What’s really gonna happen, I don’t kid
The trick is, to live right now and smell the roses
No one knows the ways of this new world
Only thing we can count on is
Change
Nothing is the way it was before
The only constant in life is the
Change
No one knows the ways of this new world
Only thing we can count on is
Change
Nothing is the way it was before
The only constant in life is the
Change
In the song "New World" by Ty-Law, the lyrics describe the rapidly changing world we live in and reflect on the impact of these changes on various aspects of our lives. The artist begins by juxtaposing the thriving hip-hop scene of 1995 with the current reality of wearing N95 masks for survival. This illustrates the stark contrast between the past and present, highlighting how our world has drastically changed.
The lyrics also touch upon the current social distancing measures and the division they create among people. However, the artist acknowledges that despite these divisions, people still come together in unexpected ways, just like asteroids colliding in space. This suggests that unity and togetherness can still prevail even in challenging times.
The song emphasizes the loss of the old world and the necessity to adapt to the new one. It mentions the potential future of playing sports with masks and abandoning handshakes for alternative forms of greeting, drawing parallels to the Black Panther's way of cross-handing and bowing. The lyrics suggest that the world is becoming colder, with kings losing their thrones and individuals having to be resilient and strategize to protect their families.
The artist further explores the theme of adaptability in the face of change. They express a willingness to fight for what they love and uphold their own values, even amidst the uncertain future. The lyrics also touch upon the cyclical nature of life, with the flow of time compared to the revolving nature of a vinyl record. This symbolizes how change is inevitable and that we must embrace it rather than resist.
The song also acknowledges the potential dystopian future that lies ahead, where technology dominates and humanity faces new challenges. The lyrics mention the possibility of a zombie apocalypse, face recognition surveillance, and the merging of human and robotic elements. These references create a sense of urgency and caution about the potential consequences of unchecked technological advancements.
Ultimately, the song encourages listeners to live in the present moment and appreciate the beauty around them, symbolized by smelling the roses. It urges individuals to stay alert and informed, as the internet exposes both new and old truths. The song concludes by asserting that change is the only constant in life, and though the ways of the new world may be unknown, it is essential to adapt and embrace it.

@speedway7407
They are stupid if they let Bill go.
@calebsuchil9516
love Ty man😂😂😂
@e-girlthot1104
Everyone saying Kraft wouldn't let it leak that Bill is gone. You are wrong. He HAS to let it sort of leak even indirectly because he has to start building next coaching regime. You don't just start that January. You have to get a head start. Why is everyone ignoring that fact you think Robert Kraft is gonna wait til January 7-9th to start finding new staff? That's what terrible teams do
@michaelcoleman7143
I Would Give Bill 2years to Fix Everything, I think he Deserves that, Plus Bill is the most popular face of the franchise
