   In my perspective, as Steven says
   
   "Something wrong with the world today, I don't know what it is? Somethings wrong with our eyes."

He's trying to tell us to open our eyes and fix the shit we've caused.

   A social statement about how we are destroying ourselves and the world. Aerosmith are very anti rascist.
