don't get caught up
Ziggy Alberts Lyrics

It's a slow burn
Taking the right path and doing the right thing can be a slow process

When we're trying to do right by the rest of the world
Trying to be a good person and make a difference in the world can be challenging

And now they sell immunity too
People are selling products that promise immunity or protection from harm

In pills and pearls and tax
These products are often expensive and may not be effective

All our freedoms subdued
Our freedom to make our own choices and decisions is limited by these products and their promises

Can you believe that we are here still arguing
It's surprising that we are still having the same arguments and discussions despite all the advancements and progress that has been made

About the right to choose what we put in our bodies
People should have the right to make their own decisions about their bodies and what they put into them

But you see it's so easy to do
It's easy to believe in something when it is presented to us in a way that seems factual or convincing

When bill sells it like it's facts
People can be easily convinced or swayed by someone who presents something as true or factual, even if it isn't

But in fact, it isn't true
Many of the things that are presented to us as facts are actually false or misleading

Don't get caught up
Don't let yourself be deceived or misled by outside influences

Letting the news tear each other apart
The media can often be divisive and create conflict between people and groups

Fears making money doing nothing for us
Many of the things that we are afraid of or worried about are often exaggerated or used to make money without actually helping us

So don't get caught up
Don't let yourself be swayed by these negative influences

What if they
What if the people in power

Called for war
Decided to go to war or start conflict

Nobody came, everybody broke the law
What if nobody followed their orders and instead chose to break the law and disobey their commands

Wouldn't be so easy to do
If people didn't blindly follow those in power, it would be much more difficult for them to make dangerous or harmful decisions

But the law ain't always right
Just because something is legal or considered 'the law' doesn't mean it is always the right decision or the best course of action

That's what we learnt in World War Two
The events of World War Two taught us that blindly following orders or laws can lead to devastating consequences

When we should trust each other
We should have faith in one another and in our ability to come to reasonable and rational decisions

More than we trust our screens
We should value human interaction and communication over blindly following information that we see on our screens

Can you believe that we are here still arguing?
It's surprising that we haven't been able to make more progress and move forward as a society

But in fact, it isn't true
Much of the information that we see on our screens or in the media is fabricated or misleading

Can you tell me
Can you explain to me

What's the cost
What is the true cost or consequence of our actions or decisions, beyond just financial cost

For faster connection
What are we sacrificing or giving up in order to have faster or more convenient access to technology and information

What's exactly the rush?
Why are we in such a hurry to advance or progress, and what are we losing in the process

If it's safe it's easy to prove
If something is truly safe or beneficial, there should be evidence or proof to back it up

Just get tests done by someone else
We should seek out independent testing and verification in order to ensure that the information we are being presented with is accurate and trustworthy

And show us the truth
We should be transparent and honest about the information and products that we are presenting to others

The truth it isn't easy
Truth can often be difficult or uncomfortable to confront or acknowledge

The truth it has a cost
Telling the truth or uncovering the truth can have consequences or negative repercussions for some individuals or groups

The truth is being censored
Sometimes the truth is hidden or censored by those in power, in order to maintain their own control or influence

The truth is I implore, that for me
For the singer, it is important to seek out and uncover the truth, even if it is difficult or unpopular

It's not easy to do
It can be challenging to uncover the truth and to confront uncomfortable or difficult information

When I have nothing to win
The singer is not seeking personal gain or advantage by seeking out the truth

And have everything to lose
There may be personal or professional consequences for the singer in seeking out or uncovering the truth
