THE WORLD AIN’T BROKEN” — BEZBEZ

Lời bài hát

[INTRO — SOLO VIOLIN / SOFT PIANO] [MALE SPOKEN — CLOSE, CALM] Everybody says, “This world is fucked up.” But look at that sunrise… What did it ever do to you? [KEYBOARD PAD RISES] Maybe we’ve been blaming the wrong thing. ⸻ [OPENING HOOK — SOULFUL R&B] The sky ain’t the one that lied. The rain ain’t the one that stole. The sun never asked what you’re worth before it touched your soul. We keep saying, “What a broken world.” Look at what we put it through… This world is still beautiful. What the hell happened to you? [DRUMS ENTER / VIOLIN RIFF] ⸻ [VERSE 1 — HIP-HOP / PIANO / DEEP BASS] Little kid laughing at a butterfly, Old man dancing with his wife outside. Dog hanging out of a passenger window— Tell me there ain’t something here to live for. First bite when you’ve been hungry all day, That first deep breath when the hurt goes away. Somebody calling just to hear you speak, Warm water running after one hard week. Man, life got things you can’t put on a receipt, Like taking off your shoes, feeling grass on your feet. But we stare at a screen till we hate what we have, Miss the whole damn sunset checking who hit us back. Then somebody cheats, somebody takes, Somebody smiles while a promise breaks. We look at the earth like it did us wrong— But the birds outside still sing their song. ⸻ [PRE-CHORUS — SOFT ROCK / CLEAN GUITAR / VIOLIN] That river didn’t steal your pay. Those mountains didn’t turn away. The moon was there the night you cried— It wasn’t who said goodbye. I know the hurt you carry’s real. I know it changes how things feel. But lift your eyes… There’s something here worth loving still. ⸻ [CHORUS — HARD ROCK / SOARING R&B HARMONIES] THE WORLD AIN’T BROKEN— LOOK WHAT WE’VE DONE! We put a price on everything then blame it on the sun. LIFE IS STILL BEAUTIFUL— EVEN AFTER ALL THIS PAIN! We keep hurting one another then cursing at the rain. OH-OH, DON’T LET IT MAKE YOU COLD! OH-OH, THERE’S MORE THAN WHAT THEY STOLE! THE WORLD AIN’T BROKEN— WE CAN CHANGE WHAT WE BECOME. ⸻ [POST-CHORUS — TRANCE / TECHNO DROP] Beautiful… Beautiful… Still a beautiful world. [CHOPPED VOCAL / VIOLIN MELODY] Bad things people do— Don’t make the sky less blue. Still a beautiful… Beautiful world. ⸻ [VERSE 2 — HARD HIP-HOP / DISTORTED BASS] We made a number worth more than a name, Made being cruel look like part of the game. Food in the trash while a man goes hungry, Somehow we still say there isn’t enough money. Boss takes credit, worker takes blame, Tell the truth, watch ’em drag your name. Somebody films while somebody bleeds, Then calls it compassion by sharing the feed. And I’ve been wrong, I’ve been selfish too, Said things I wish I could pull back through. Can’t point at the crowd like I’m standing apart— I gotta watch what I do with my own damn heart. ’Cause somebody’s driving their neighbor to work, Somebody’s listening instead of making it worse. Somebody’s giving without getting seen— That’s a human being too. That’s who we could be. ⸻ [PRE-CHORUS — R&B / KEYBOARD / HALF-TIME DRUMS] You didn’t choose the way they treated you. You get a say in what your hands will do. You can put the weapon down. You can turn somebody’s day around. We’ve still got time… To leave some kindness here behind. ⸻ [CHORUS — FULL BAND / HEAVIER GUITARS] THE WORLD AIN’T BROKEN— LOOK WHAT WE’VE DONE! We put a price on everything then blame it on the sun. LIFE IS STILL BEAUTIFUL— EVEN AFTER ALL THIS PAIN! We keep hurting one another then cursing at the rain. OH-OH, DON’T LET IT MAKE YOU COLD! OH-OH, THERE’S MORE THAN WHAT THEY STOLE! THE WORLD AIN’T BROKEN— WE CAN CHANGE WHAT WE BECOME. ⸻ [BRIDGE — PIANO AND VIOLIN ONLY] This morning through the window, a little light came in. It fell across the laundry, the dishes, and my skin. Nothing big had happened. Nobody called with news. For once I let the morning be something I could use. I made a little coffee. I opened up the door. I’d spent so long being angry… I forgot there could be more. [SOFT R&B HARMONIES] More than getting even. More than keeping score. I wanna love being alive like I used to before. ⸻ [BUILD — TECHNO KICK / RISING VIOLIN / KEYBOARD ARPEGGIO] Let me hear the laughter. Let me feel the rain. Let me meet somebody without making them pay— For what somebody else did. For what somebody else broke. I don’t wanna pass it on. I wanna let it go. [ONE BEAT OF SILENCE] I STILL WANNA LIVE! ⸻ [BREAKDOWN — HARD ROCK / DRUM-AND-BASS DROP] TURN IT UP— I STILL WANNA LIVE! HANDS UP— I STILL GOT LOVE TO GIVE! I WON’T MAKE A STRANGER PAY FOR WHAT YOU DID! TURN IT UP— I STILL WANNA LIVE! [VIOLIN SOLO OVER HEAVY GUITAR AND FAST BREAKBEATS] ⸻ [FINAL CHORUS — SOARING / ALL INSTRUMENTS] THE WORLD AIN’T BROKEN— LOOK WHAT WE CAN DO! A hand can hurt somebody, or help somebody through. LIFE IS STILL BEAUTIFUL— I CAN FEEL IT IN MY VEINS! I won’t spend every sunrise giving yesterday the blame. OH-OH, I’M NOT GONNA LIVE THIS COLD! OH-O
