The World (Is Going up in Flames) Lyrics

This world
Is going up in flames
And nobody
Wanna take the blame
Don't tell me
How to live my life
When you
Never felt the painOh, oh, oh
Come on babe
They don't hear me cry
They don't hear me try
They don't hear me cry
For what I gonna do, yeah babyI can't turn my head away
Seeing all these things
The world
Is burning up in flames
And nobody
Wanna take the blameYou oh you

You oh you
Me oh meThey don't hear me cry
They don't hear me try
Don't stomp on that lightIt's killing me
Oh babe
Come on babe, get it rightGotta be
A better world
Gotta make it baby
Gotta make it rightOohYeah, yeah, yeah baby, aha aha, oh baby

Charles Bradley is no stranger to hard times. Born in Gainesville, Florida in 1948 and raised in Brooklyn, New York, Charles spent the better part of his childhood living on the streets. One of the more optimistic moments of his childhood came in 1962, when his sister took him to see James Brown at The Apollo. Brown’s energy formed a lasting impression on Charles. He went home and immediately began practicing microphone tricks with a broom attached to a string, imitating the Godfather’s every move.
