Kai - Real Apocalypse

"Real Apocalypse" by Kai
musics and lyrics by Kai

Does it seem like the end of the world is near? No, no, no, not a zombie apocalypse, like in The Walking Dead… A real one…
//lyrics//
Live remains of a war
We’re fighting for nothing at all
There’s another one down the block
A gunshot wound right through the heart
The madman’s on a rampage again
The children cry without refrain
Are we next in line? I don’t want to go.
This is not the world that we know.
I read news of death every page
Of the daily paper everyday.
Why is one religion wrong and one religion right?
No way to prove it, just your pride is too high.
Hard times called desperate measures
So there’s genocide of disbelievers.
Would Gandhi be proud? Well, King would weep.
And Nelson Mandela would hardly get any sleep.
We're facing world destruction
But this time's not your regular intuition
Oh, it’s happening now! And it’s happening fast!
A never-ending disease
I sense this time a real apocalypse.
It’s hard for us to be one and whole
When we’re always slaves to our souls.
There’s no room for us to ever doubt
We choose to believe what we know about.
The judge can never soar beyond himself,
A prisoner before the Eden of his belief.
We're facing true destruction
This calamity and crisis past suppression
What are we fighting about? Nobody knows no more.
Why can’t we all just get along?
I sense this time a real apocalypse
How can we try to stop each other from this
Senseless insurrection we've brought on? Aah…
We're facing world destruction
But this time's not your ordinary prediction
We can still be friends and love our neighbor
Imagine all the peace!
Let’s save ourselves from real apocalypse.
Will you take my hand and come with me?
I’ll show you the way to truly be free
