Charles Bradley - The World (Is Going Up In Flames) Lyrics
This world is going up in flames
And nobody is gonna to take the blame
Don't tell me how to live my life
When you never felt the pain
Ooh, come on, baby
Ooh, they don't hear me cry
Ooh, they don't hear me chime
Ooh, they don't hear me cry
So what I'm gonna do?
Yeah, baby
I can't turn my head away, seein' on these things
The world is burning up in flames
And nobody wanna take the blame
Me? Or me?
Ooh, they don't hear me cry
Ooh, they don't hear me chime
Ooh, so stop all that lying
Ooh, oh, you killing me, oh baby, come on, baby
Get it right, gotta lead a better road
Gotta make it, baby
Gotta make it right, uh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah baby

Pain of walking the streets bummy.. I feel this. I'm ok now.
Not happy still but living more comfortable trying x22 more than the next man
It's been years since I last heard this. Maybe 6/7years. Sipping this Hennessy somehow got me to search the title. Hope everyone has a good end of the year. Truly blessed to be reading and commenting online to the broader spectrum of the world
When emotions can sing
Rest easy Charles. You had a tough life. Thank you for some excellent music. Tragic he did not get the attention and recognition he deserved
Mr.bradley live in the biclyshop?
Imagine the feeling of privilege it must have been to perform in a band with this kind of talent.
omg this was live jam, the awesomeness, on the whole other level
One of KEXP best! Is it possible to get this full KEXP session complete???in full video..?? prepared to pay for this genius performance. ...
Burn baby burn. R.I.P. Charles sir. Brilliant. X. Life affirming stuff. Should have got recognition a lot earlier in his life.
I hope he has found a little peace now... RIP Charles Bradley
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 pain
Oh, 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 baby
I can't turn my head away
Seeing all these things
The world
Is burning up in flames
And nobody
Wanna take the blame
You oh you
You oh you
Me oh me
They don't hear me cry
They don't hear me try
Don't stomp on that light
It's killing me
Oh babe
Come on babe, get it right
Gotta be
A better world
Gotta make it baby
Gotta make it right
Ooh
Yeah, yeah, yeah baby, aha aha, oh baby
Oh dude oh godn oh shit o Satan... this is GREAT!
Yes Charlie, it is!
He is an amazing musician, when he sings it’s straight from the heart. This song made me a fan. He sings with such conviction and the music is obviously inspired by 60s/70s artists like Curtis Mayfield and James Brown, it just captures the sound and essence of the music from that time so well. Charles Bradley is living proof that music isn’t dead, there’s still hope.
"Charles Bradley is living proof that music isn't dead".
Charles Bradley died 2 years ago.

Shit, another brilliant musician, gone. I’m sick of all these great people hitting the dirt
The whole band is lookin' at the Trumpet player sideways.
Que rola!!!
The trumpet guy sucks
This guy is singlehandedly raising the humidity of the entire Seattle area
LOOK AT THAT BROW BRO!
This much soul into his performance, for a bunch of people only! I wish this guy had the recognition he deserve. The fact tha he didn´t make me sick of the music industry...

The drummer looks like he wants to kill the trumpet player.
