1.5 is Still Alive

How did we reach where we are?
1% with their lies and their power
Their system system of greed
Cannibalizing Our Mother
Things, things and more things
Is how their system keeps going
Selling us what we don't need
Feeding a giant that's growing

1.5 to stay alive, 1.5 we can survive
1.5 we all can thrive, 1.5 we still can thrive

So we have reached where we are
Some say it's too late for (a) turning
Poison in the air, sea and land
The body of Our Mother is burning
Our children and children of our children
Look into our eyes with a question
How could we know what you knew back then
And yet still you all let it happen?

Some are saying it's just too late
Total extinction is our fate
But we've not reached the end of the rope
There's a degree, a fraction, of hope

1.5 to stay alive, 1.5 we all can thrive
1.5 we can survive, 1.5 we still can thrive. Spread the word, we still can thrive
The way begins at 1.5

Never (have we seen it) like this before'
Every day brings a sign and a wonder
Disasters and profits go up
People and countries go under
Justice and Earth-needs go hand in hand
A system that serves (ALL is what) we demand

1.5 to stay alive
The order we live in must change
People must come before profit
We're greening the system for now
But sooner than later must change it
(And till then)
