Ayo - Fire [English Version] [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Chorus]
Is anybody listening?
The city's on fire
The town is burning down
But there's no water

Is anybody listening?
The city's on fire
The town is burning down
But there's no water

[Verse 1]
8 million citizens
Nobody's really listening
Nobody's really watching
8 million ignorant
80,000 teachers, way too many preachers
And thousands of leaders but nobody leads us
3 million beggars, 4 million pleasers
We are the world, but they don't really need us
Ghetto got no funds, ghetto ain't no fun
Ghetto kids got guns, ghetto got no one
Ghetto got no funds, ghetto ain't no fun
Ghetto kids got guns, cause they got no one
No one, no one, no one

[Chorus x2]

[Verse 2]
Nobody's listening to the sounds of the street
The clamour, the violence, the sirens, the heat
5 million set free out of 5 million desperate
1 million hurt, thousands arrested
The times are changing, why is this singing?
Everybody's praying
Forgive us Father for all of our sins
The hatred, the weak, the ignorance

[Break]
The city's on fire
The town is burning down
There ain't no sound of silence
Tell me who's gonna help us now?
Nobody's listening
8 million people rioting
Looking for shelter
But they got nowhere to go

[Chorus]
