Hear the waves crashing
against the shore, getting stronger
and stronger with every splash.
Let them smash where
they need to, let them
crash all the people.
Many, many islands go unnoticed.
many, many go unheard of.
Many, many off the shoreline
across the ocean into the sundown.
“Don’t you dare put your gun down!”
Hear them scream only in your dreams.
See the glistening on the water
you dive into, far far away from
all the trash and dying coral
there is life, there is moral.
Life of breathtaking humans,
inside and out. “Don’t say a
word! Don’t you dare shout!
No one can hear you across the ocean
there is no route, there is no way out!”
Let all the living live till they can’t no
more. World peace dying galore!
Nation states! Oh No! Here they come!
I can see them over the rising sun.
I can see them over the waves,
sixty feet high, are they coming from
The Sky? They say, “Don’t tell a soul!”
Captain Cook has death all over his
hook. Murder, the whole world shook.
Doctrine of Discovery takes leaps to
do as they please. “Tell me who are
you helping? Please Please tell me?”
Because all I can hear are the screams
SIX FEET UNDERGROUND! El Dia De Los
Muertos is everywhere. Dime, cuantos
pesos quieres to turn my frown
upside down?
Cuantos pesos quieres para largarte
de mi tierra? Como es que tomas lo
que no es tuyo? ¿Tienes conciencia?
Me quitas mi vida aunque no quiera!
En un lugar de mierda vivo yo.
Sufriendo por agua pura.
Pura agua sucia me das a beber.
En ti lo bueno nuca pude ver.
Dime, como quieres verme?
Hincada en dos pies?
I will never bow down to you if
that’s you expect. Take me out.
I beg you! Let me have my last
breath. Let me dwindle down.
Take away all the stress. So you
see, take my life now and claim
victory. Take my life never and
you WILL die in history!
…
Climate change starts from above.
Nation States push and shove.
All the life gone as they please,
all dead and gone. Corporations
kill from above. Kill to strive, to
soar the atmosphere galore!
¡Puta madre mi hija ase calor!
My town stays in drought.
Mira ama, que bonita cloud!
Eso no es el cielo, mi hija,
eso es el diablo! Down the hill we drive.
Joshua trees in flames.
It’s okay, climate change again.
Gang Gang!
Bang Bang!
Shame Shame!
There they go again!
Tell me Mr. President, how
is it that you can remove the
country from the Climate
Change Treaty of Paris? Aren’t
you a little embarrassed?
Tell me Mr. President, are you
really that careless? Heartless?
Brainless? Shameless? Do you
actually belief that your Nation
State has nothing to do with
climate change? You’re insane!
Virginia is constantly flooding.
Global warming is shouting!
Funny to you isn’t it Mr. President?
Funny how your corporations take
control of labor over local businesses.
Funny how they incorporate tons of
CO2 into our atmosphere. YOU,
however, YOU put the Cap on Fear!
…
Funny how you’re building a wall
to keep out MY PEOPLE! To keep
my people out of a Doctrine written
for death! Mi gente sobrevive
para siempre! Don’t you forget!
Entonces que Mr. Presidente?
Dejame te explico la verdad.
Para que entiendas bien. Pon
atención porque esto es tu verdad.
La verdad al cien! Tu no estas contribuyendo
dinero para la vida de mi gente.
Tanto odio tienes que hasta tu gente
Te llevas por tus pies? Los tuyos también
duelen. Porque en el
calientamento global todos mueren!
You’re not spending money to fix
global warming, you’re spending
money to contribute to it! So tell
me again Mr. President, what’s so
Damn Fucken Funny? That all of my
people are dying? Remember climate
change is insane, the Gods are its brains!
You’re killing your people as well,
you’re losing the game!
Moloch! With your killing views
on sovereignty. Moloch! Your
history a myth. Princess Lydia Liliuokalani
NEVER agreed! How can your Nation
State tell me they are free? Moloch came
to Hawai’i and made it’s people free?
Hawai’i, no seamos de la misma tierra,
pero te amo, te entiendo. Y digo
porque. América vino por mi gente
como vino por la tuya. América vino por
mi tierra and made me free! América
vino a joder all of my and your parents
dreams! Taking our lands as they heard
our ancestors screams!
…
Hear the rain pouring, it’s roaring!
See the flames burning, they’re roaring!
You better learn how to swim
because Katrina was only the beginning!
The earth is roaring with pain!
Whose eyes are watching God’s?
Moloch! With all of its guns. What
nation has our back?
When is it time to fight?
The time is now! Listen to
your instincts. Better yet, listen
to your ancestors! Listen from
within. Let it work its way out!
Remember, the planet can
withstand this heat. It is us who
will die. Our planet killing us right
under our feet. Earth has been this
hot before, tell me
how many humans rest a shore?
So tell me again as you listen to
to the waves crashing against the shore.
Waves getting stronger and stronger!
Of humans and their pain of oceans
getting tired of playing your game!
Getting louder and louder!
Who and what do you care about more?
Who do you think will win this fight?
Nation States or Climate Change?
