INTRO verse 1   Roll up another cigarette   Using a minute that it takes   To think about the power of your words     We’re living in the currents you create   We’re sinking in the pool of your mistakes   So stop it out your podium awaits Pre-Chorus Oh my God my God I can’t quite believe my ears I’m swimming to the surface I’m coming up for air Cause you’re making me feel nervous I need to clear my head I can’t believe my ears I don’t wanna believe my ears I’m swimming to the surface I’m coming up for air verse 2   How can you think you’re serious?   Do you even know what year it is?   I can’t believe the scary points you make     Still living in the currents you create   Still sinking in the pool of your mistakes   Won’t you stop firing up the crazies? Pre-Chorus Oh my God my God I can’t quite believe my ears I’m swimming to the surface I’m coming up for air Cause you’re making me feel nervous I need to clear my head I can’t believe my ears I don’t wanna believe my ears I’m swimming to the surface I’m coming up for air BRIDGE (When anybody preaches cause you know tries to pit one of us against the other) (you know that person seeks to rob us of our freedom and destroy our very lives) Oh I need a breath I need a breath Fill my lungs won’t you fill my lungs Oh I need a breath I need a breath Fill my lungs let me fill my lungs Oh I need a breath I need a breath Fill my lungs let me fill my lungs Oh I need a breath I need a breath Fill my lungs let me fill my lungs I’m swimming to the surface I’m coming up for air Cause you’re making me feel nervous I need to clear my head I can’t believe my ears I don’t wanna believe my ears I’m swimming to the surface I’m coming up for air

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque le sentiment d'étouffement face aux paroles et aux actions d'autrui, comme si l'on se débattait dans des courants créés par leurs erreurs. Elle traduit une frustration face à une réalité perturbante où l'on se sent perdu et submergé par des idées confuses et dérangeantes. En cherchant désespérément à respirer, l'artiste exprime le besoin de prendre du recul pour éclaircir son esprit. L'idée principale tourne autour de la quête de liberté et de clarté dans un monde souvent chaotique, où ceux qui prêchent des discours divisants peuvent nous priver de notre tranquillité d'esprit.
