You wake up, it’s a brand new day
The sins of the past are tucked away
All is fine, things are going your way
The world turns, it’s just another day
But you look around
The world is not the same
The fires, the storms
The winds blow people away
Climate change is not real
So they say
But this future is only a day away
Six o’clock news
Looks war is coming our way
One button to push
The world is blown away
Now you ask yourself
How did it get this way
People look for change
But the world’s more scary today
And you look around
The world is not the same
Are we blinded by a cloud of lies and hate
Korea is far, but its fate will have a say
For all our lives
It could be a day away
You look down South
Hearts are filled with fear
Migrants’ rights are all taken away
By bus, on foot they try to find a way
Where to build their lives
To live another day
And you look around
The world is not the same
More people are poor
And the 1%, they do not care
There’s something else
You and I must fight for today
For our future, it’s only a day away
For our future is only a day away
