Break These Walls

---------------------------------------------- © Copyright 2025 --> @arqluizfelipe Δ∙Ʀ∙Q∙ --> Altered Reality in Quotation Lyrics and music production by Δ∙Ʀ∙Q∙ ---------------------------------------------- "Shoutout to brother @Zaron, my partner in creativity!" ---------------------------------------------- I invite you to embark on this epic and emotional journey—a powerful call for unity, breaking down the barriers that divide us, and embracing diversity. I wrote this song some time ago, originally envisioned in a Metal style. Revisiting it now, it has never felt more relevant. I updated the lyrics, the style, and aimed for a more grand, almost cinematic feel—something that could be performed on a massive stage, like the Grammys. It’s a bold call to recognize that the ideological divisions in society aren’t accidental—they are deliberately crafted by those in power. That’s why the song opens with a quote from Noam Chomsky, setting the stage for its urgent message. ____________________________ AI Summary: This song is a powerful anthem against division and extremism, calling for unity and understanding in a world fractured by hatred. With intense verses painting a city consumed by conflict and a pre-chorus lamenting the loss of compassion, the chorus serves as a rallying cry to break down the metaphorical walls that separate people. Political speech samples from Noam Chomsky and Angela Davis reinforce the song’s message of resistance and transformation. The bridge, accompanied by gospel choir harmonies, shifts towards a hopeful tone, urging people to embrace differences and reclaim control. The song culminates in a final, emphatic chorus, demanding action and solidarity to reshape the world. --------------------------------------------- ***Lyrics: [Prelude: Political Speech Sample] "The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum." (Noam Chomsky) [Verse 1] City's in flames tempers boilin' hot Screamin' at shadows, trapped in a heated plot! humm Sides are divided Lines etched in stone Kindness forgotten Replaced by a cold, hard, moan! ooo hummm [Pre-Chorus] Lost in the echoes of our own damn roars. Deaf to compassion locked in a war of doors This ain't the future a world chained by hate Can we break these chains? Before it's too late? Yeah!!! [Chorus] We gotta smash these walls: DOWN (down) DOWN (down) DOWN (down) DOWN (down) Let understanding rip, with a thunderous sound: Talk it out, scream it out let our voices be heard Respect the differences that make up this WORLD! [Verse 2] "Fists clenched tight breaking under the weight of the silence. Fear turns to fire when the walls keep on rising." YEAH Judgin' faces!!! (for the way they bend the light) Blind to the beauty: Hidin' in plain sight! (Hidin' in plain sight) (hee-hee!) oooooo [Interlude: Political Speech Sample] "You have to act as if it were possible to radically transform the world. And you have to do it all the time." (Angela Davis) hummm [Pre-Chorus] Lost in the echoes of our own damn roars. Deaf to compassion locked in a war of doors This ain't the future a world chained by hate Can we break these chains? Before it's too late? Yeah!!! [Chorus] We gotta smash these walls: DOWN (down) DOWN (down) DOWN (down) DOWN (down) Let understanding rip, with a thunderous sound: Talk it out, scream it out let our voices be heard Respect the differences that make up this WORLDDD! (world) Fight the system!!! (Fight this) ooooooooo [Drums and gospel choir: emotional] humm oooo humm oooo [Interlude] Shhh "Let's shred the flags, of us versus them" "Embrace the chaos, where magic can stem" A million voices, a symphony of souls (ah) United we stand, taking back control!!! ooooooooo [Last Chorus] We gotta smash these walls: DOWN (down) DOWN (down) DOWN (down) DOWN (down) Let understanding rip, with a thunderous sound: Talk it out, scream it out let our voices be heard Respect the differences that make up this WORLD!
