Five years in fire

Verse 1
Five years on fire, the world hit pause
Sirens on repeat, panic in our jaws
Locked behind screens, counting every breath
Numbers on the news, dancing with death
Masks on faces, fear in our eyes
Truth got buried under scripted lies
While we were divided, yelling left or right
They were counting billions in the dead of night
Pre-Chorus
We lost the plot, we lost the way
Forgot we’re human in the fray
But the cracks are showing in their throne
And we’re done feeling alone
Chorus
Five years of pressure, five years of pain
They got richer while we struggled to remain
Divided voices, but the same damn fight
It’s time to stand up, it’s time to unite
Say stop — no more control
This is our future, this is our soul
Verse 2
UFO files hit the late-night news
“Yeah, they’re real” — but no one moved
Disclosure dropped like a casual joke
While the world was broke and barely woke
Tech moves fast, AI in our hands
But rent’s still high, can’t make a stand
Progress for some, survival for most
A digital dream with a human cost
Pre-Chorus
They sell the future like a brand
While we’re just trying to feed the fam
But sparks ignite when hope comes back
We’re more than numbers in their stats
Chorus
Five years of pressure, five years of pain
They got richer while we struggled to remain
Divided voices, but the same damn fight
It’s time to stand up, it’s time to unite
Say stop — draw the line
This world is yours, this world is mine
Bridge (chant / gang vocals)
No more fear!
No more lies!
No more selling out our lives!
Hands together, break the wall
If we rise, they fall!
What will we leave?
Ash or light?
For our kids, we choose to fight!
Breakdown
Inflation choking every street
Empty wallets, concrete dreams
They tell us “wait”, they tell us “trust”
But the system feeds on us
Not left, not right, not black or white
It’s us against the parasite
The future’s not theirs to own
It’s built by hearts, flesh and bones
Final Chorus (x2, louder)
Five years of pressure, five years of pain
Still standing here in the acid rain
Enough division, enough delay
We build tomorrow starting today
Say stop — reclaim control
For the children, for the soul
Outro
Five years gone, but we’re still alive
Eyes wide open, unified
This is the spark, this is the sign
The world of tomorrow starts tonight,
