Once upon a time, in the submerged lands
There was an island and a clergy in the open Aegean sea
This island was a parable of man
The climate was warm and the sea was calm
No stress, all the riches were shared
No boss, each task was shared
But the modern man arrived
With castes, armies, clergies
The battle was rough and the waters disturbed
And despite it's efforts the island surrendered
Since, when the sun is dark
Many of us stand firm or even succumb
I struggled through thick and thin
I resisted sirens who wanted to drown me
I was wrecked, isolated, all alone and facing the world
Despite all these efforts, I will not be able to save the world
Save the world!
Once upon a time there was a wonderful world
A blue planet shaped by the heavens
A world where we worshiped the Sun
For its blessings from Kathmandu to the polar circle
But many of us were caught in the shadows
And with each full moon that number increases
With each full moon the plagues increase
And oil ends up in the waters
Man seems to be a wolf to another man (1)
It's as if we are caught in a sauna of chloroform vapors
If I write these words it's because I come from the dry countries
And because for centuries there has been no ORSEC plan (2)
I would have liked to carry the lamp, the flame and the torch
I would have loved to change the world by the weight of my words
And have brought the spark to the masses
But whatever I do, I will not be able to save the world.
Save the world!
Imagine the world, modernity
With willpower we can change everything
I'm on my knees on the Salt Lake
My forehead is on the floor, i'm meditating
What's within my grasp is breaking down doors
And bringing help when the burden is heavy
Doing it on musical scale isn't enough
We need to start all over again:
Harmony would be in changing things
Altering perception until metamorphosis
Hearing the Choir of Angels like voices from beyond the grave
Because I hear their cry that says, "Save the world!"
Save the world!
Tell me MC (3), why can't we save the world?
Because the Earth lives in the era of the damaging ether
Because man is inorganic and his heart is made of stone
Because Abel, Cain, Fabrice, Sophie and Lucien
Aligned themselves with the angel who exiled the good
Tell me MC (3), why can't you save the world?
Because I saw the night dim the light
And the world dissolved to twilight
When it rains I see hope become flat
As if they've gotten used to it, 'fiat lux' is no more (4)
Why can't you save the world?
Because I'm not Superman, and the situation is super bad
And Barbie and Ken have gone super mad
I would like you to do something
I'm asking you, promise me
If you can, please
If you can, save the world.
