It’s Going Down – The World In Lockdown Mode

The lockdown due to the Covid 19 pandemic made me do things I usually don’t do, making a song and video about the global lockdown for instance. Originally published on Youtube during the first lockdown in May 2020, it has become clear that it just isn’t over yet. Today, in most countries governments still impose a lockdown on its people, and we have to deal with ongoing draconian measures and social surveillance in the style of George Orwell’s book “1984”. The topic “The Great Reset” propagated by the World Economic Forum has come to the surface. Everyone should form an opinion about it. I wonder: have we gone mad to accept this as the new normal?

lyrics
— verse —
Here is the chance to do your final dance.
Look around, it’s going down.

You are alone, still in your comfort zone.
Don’t be fooled, you will get schooled.

The world in lockdown mode, ain’t nobody on the road.
Its a ghost town, its going down.

Better be young, better be strong,
cause if you ain’t lucky, you’ll be gone.

— chorus —
It’s going down, It’s going up,
we don’t slow down and we don’t stop.
(It’s going down)

We contemplate to rearrange,
now is the time for things to change.
(Things will change)

We’re counting down, will it blow up?
And to this sound we surely rock.
(to this sound we surely rock)

An when we’re through we will see
We cannot sue our destiny.
( I cannot sue my destiny)

— verse —
An orchestrated mess, everyone is tryin’ to save their ass.
Don’t be a clown, it’s going down.

global system crash, separating wheat from chaff
the suffering of the masses is turned into cash.

There is a monster on the loose, designed to confuse.
Don’t fuck around, it’s going down

You better be strong, you better ain’t wrong
`Cause if you ain’t lucky, you’ll be gone.

— chorus —
It’s going down, It’s going up,
we don’t slow down and we don’t stop.
(It’s going down)

We contemplate to rearrange,
now is the time for things to change.
(Things will change)

We’re counting down, will it blow up?
And to this sound we surely rock.
(to this sound we surely rock)

An when we’re through we will see
We cannot sue our destiny.
( I cannot sue my destiny)
