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?
