trading floors exploded, down arrows, red numbers//
people losing everything, convinced that their world was ending, no small thanks to a lotta chest thumping//
and paranoia, but thats a sensitive topic//
cause on one hand homie lost his home, on the other hand, the ones who caused it go in and post record profits//
that was just the tip of it, the icebergs vanished, species vanished daily//
countries literally drowning, under the threat of an ecosystem failing//
to cope, gave us enough rope, we were swaying by the days end//
big business dollars bought slaves, blind eyes, coastlines, goldmines of ambivalence, digging our own graves then//
no lie, oil fell from the sky, suffocated oceans blackened//
eyes of the world on a room of conspirators, not one knew what happened//
not one stood and hacked it, noone took blame//
global crisis justified for private gain a world insane (that's what it is to be a slave//
Every city//
In every building//
Sits another like me//
Watching, waiting, watching, waiting//
they pushed us, tested our indifference, just to see how far they could milk it//
and its funny cause the ones with the money didn't care long as it was the one without who felt it//
ha, they felt it alright, for lifetimes across all borders//
smooth talkers, cold blooded, exploit it, export it//
my generation, was caught between caring more than all that came before us//and a self induced apathy that almost tore us, destroyed us and brought us//
to the brink, then we stopped to think, its crazy in age where//
we could drop bombs via satellite we were too blind to the forces at play there, to stand up against their//
willpower, to quick to cower in the face of conglomerates//
and as the world hung there in the balance, enough said enough is enough about time we put a stop to this//
straw by straw till they had a haystack, only took one more//
to break the cycle, united took to the streets, to the halls of power, to the governments doors//
Every city//
In every building//
Sits another like me//
Watching, waiting, watching, waiting//
Every city//
In every building//
Sits another like me//
Watching, waiting, watching, waiting//
its all a numbers game, but all the corporate wallet flashes//
of financial strength couldn't counter the power of the masses//
when it came to the crunch, when the lust and greed threatened everything we lovee//
divided they had us but fuck that man, push came to shove//
and we beat the fucking cowards back, and under a shining sun//
showed we could silence their influence, but try as they might they couldn't silence love//
cant silence love, let history shown how hard that war was won//
so we may never know how close we'd really come, how close we'd really come//
"quite an experience to live in fear isn't it?
thats what it is to be a slave"

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
