Sound the Alarm

[Verse 1]
Roses grow, thorns attack
Pick a flower, you can’t put it back
Crimes of the hot begin to stack
Deny the heat, to kill the reefs
And starve the bees; can’t make honey
With each degree that’s raised for greed
All for money, more than you could ever need
What’s the point of owning the world when the world is dying?
So wake up please
The Mother’s crying, the water’s rising
We’re all deciding that we don’t need
To care or blink an eye to these
Results of driving and growing beef
Consume control, rinse repeat
But we’re doomed to fold if we can’t believe
That the land we sold, the soil can’t grow trees
The ice-sea see-saw began to thaw
We’ll see the fall of man in this lifespan
So fuck your pension plan and fuck your mall
Shopping sprees increase the squeeze of it all
I get appalled when it comes to how Keynesian
Profit from war, don’t make use of uranium
Kill us all, plain as day, that’s insane damage
The death of this planet is homo sapien

[Hook]
What a wretched world we weave
Hung up in a moment
What kind of planet will our parents leave?
It’s too late to wake up now
I know we tried to so hard and came so far
But the sand falls through
Know your time is up
When the sand falls through

[Verse 2]
This ain’t some sci-fi rescue
The science is there my friend
Don’t expect a bless you
I want you to prosper
But we can’t expect to
At least not yet, not unless you
Confess to the mess you brought here
That we all sought, that we all bought fear
And fiction and fallacies
A televised gallery
Made by some fucks on salary (idiocracy)
Tell me you’d sell the planet for any price (on your TV)
Look me straight in the eyes as you do it
You’d let us all die just to get a slice
When you can’t eat your money, motherfucker you’ll rue it
You can’t feed on freedom
You can’t breathe in reasons to spend
When there’s profits to make and realities to pretend
In order to defend the actions made by men in power
And men bending rules made up by men (fucking disgusting)
And sure there’s some hypocritical criticism
But cynicism isn’t grim synergism
The sins of blind symbolism stretch beyond dogmatism
Until it’s wrong to listen, to my songs about altruism
Until we all become non-existent
Here’s wisdom: when things aren’t going well
We still need to grow
If we don’t
We won’t win
To Darwinism
