Breaking news: worlds gonna break in two
Fuckin saw that coming, but what we gonna do
Well it dont affect me so must have been fake news
It's all the cloud people, they out to control you
So find your scapegoat blame those who are below you
Never confess, project, just be like no u
Shakin hands with pedos, when asked say I dont know you
Epstein didn't kill himself, the meme was fuckin no use
I'm scared of our president outright threatening our blacks
I'm scared of the police buying weapons with our tax
The only thing to fear is fear itself so relax
Except fear is a bio weapon stronger than anthrax
They make us all afraid of ourselves and each other
Tear ourselves apart go to war with our brothers
Best counterattack is to love one another
So best know your enemy or continue to suffer (motherfuckers)
Existential dread making me think we'll all be dead soon
Stuck in bed the pain is starting to feel like a head wound
Unrest to protests to rioting it's spreading
Escalating tensions give way to fuckin beheadings
If Robespierre had a twitter his following be massive
Let them eat cake on trending no one'd be passive
If Voltaire was around he might be teaching classes
But it takes chaotic passion to really capture the masses
That Beeblebrox energy, president of the galaxy
Two heads a heart of gold but no morality
A leetle cock must be a prereq to be a leader
Cuz their ego is just a projection of their anatomy
Those who deserve power will never seek it
The truly best leaders too busy helping the needy
To get to the top you gotta be a little evil
Every villain is lemons so tell em limes will be their freedom
Seems our choice is always between the lesser of two evils
Yellow or green, red or blue, it's all the same
Either way you're left with a sour taste
And the knowledge that nothing will ever change

Run Away

Please come run away with me
Promise you'll be safe with me
This world is a fucking disaster
Evil is spreading like cancer
Gotta move faster
They say kill your masters
I'm too much of a pacifist
Let them harass us
Been feeling so guilty
I ain't doing enough to be saving my city
This shit is a pity
At least I got you with me
Let's get the fuck outta here
Please come run away with me
It's not too late
Promise you'll be safe with me
It's ok
RUN AWAY

[TF lyrics]
2020 vision is gone I need my glasses
My mind feelin so damn worn thoughts like molasses
Predictions of the future are increasingly bleak
Who knows what it'll be like next year next month or next week
Climate change, AI brains, all so strange and macabre
Scifi in range of reality, we still dreaming like Cobb
We in the matrix, plugged in our bodies skewered like kebabs
Trinity lucidity a constant sense something is wrong
Big brother is watching, expect a knock in due time
Bezos alexa telescreens listening for your thought crimes
See they work you like a delta plus then numb you with soma
Cuz your minimum wage is just enough for corona (extra)
Watching from the bleachers as they play the games of hunger
Who will volunteer as tribute to stand up to the fearmongers
Can we beat the inequity, can we spread the wealth and plunder
Or end up like district 13 and go hide out in the bunker
Seems like every year this shit gets weirder and weirder still
Seems like every year humanity's demons are clearer still
If you live in constant fear of demise, well join the club, join the club
At least we know we're not alone, we're not alone
[Enter Shikari lyrics]
I'd like to welcome all my people here
But listen everything you love is about to disappear
I feel it coming there's something in the air
But this is living, oh its modern living yeah
We're apocaholics
Drinking gin and tonics
Lying in the flowers
Counting down the hours

One day I took a trip to the California forest
When I arrived the trees were all set ablaze
Wish we could save the world from this neverending torrent
We could clear the air of all this haze
These days its a competition of who can get the warmest
If you burn the most then you'll get a raise
The way we're going soon we'll all have to live in orbit
We'll miss the times we could hide in the shade
We used to treat the earth with such respect
But everything changed when the fire nation attacked
We're all hungry for power all hungry for cash
We must restore the balance before we collapse
We used to treat the earth with such respect
But everything changed when the fire nation attacked
We're all hungry for power all hungry for cash
We must restore the balance before we collapse
Two million years ago our ancestors first discovered how to bend fire to their will
Ever since we have just been inventing more clever ways to manipulate this fire to our advantage
To light our paths
To cook our food
To transport our bodies
And connect our minds
Fire is the element of human life
And technological development has become our Sozin's comet
It empowers us for great creation
As well as great destruction
Our collective soul has met the devil at the crossroads
Will we pawn it off
Use our firepower to decimate all life on earth
Or can we realign our values
Usher in a new era of balance and prosperity
We used to treat the earth with such respect
But everything changed when the fire nation attacked
We're all hungry for power all hungry for cash
Can we restore the balance before we collapse

(You should feel pretty lucky. If we look at all of Earth's fossil record together, 98% of all species that have ever lived are extinct)
All black like an oil spill, we never seen
(We are in the sixth mass extinction)
Save the earth from our regime, those some hollow dreams
(And this time, we're the asteroid)
All black like an oil spill, we never seen
Lurking deep beneath the soil, cop that nether green
Save the earth from our regime, those some hollow dreams
Bitch don't fuck with my team, we're the Holocene
All black like an oil spill, we never seen
Lurking deep beneath the soil, cop that nether green
Save the earth from our regime, those some hollow dreams
Bitch don't fuck with my team, we're the Holocene
On my mass extinction shit, no survivors
Global superpredators, we got no rivals
Took out all them big cats, king of tigers
Like Joe Exotic with top hats, we the suppliers
What you need we got it
Green paper lines our pockets
Skyscraper penthouse poppin
Lil gas never hurt nobody
From Rockefeller to Ambani
Pump plastic bottles like Dasani
Nestle GE BP raise the GDP bring in the big money
Power your 1080p HDTV with dino corpses
Watching your Fox News tell you your views without using primary sources
Those white boys burning crosses are the same ones working forces
Rage against the machine, defund the police, but we'll never recoup these losses
Maintain the immolation exploitation status quo
Kick off the defaunation population domino
The ecosystems all connected, carnage outta control
Got biped wisdom but our planets wrath we have provoked
All black like an oil spill, we never seen
Lurking deep beneath the soil, cop that nether green
Save the earth from our regime, those some hollow dreams
Bitch don't fuck with my team, we're the Holocene
All black like an oil spill, we never seen
Lurking deep beneath the soil, cop that nether green
Save the earth from our regime, those some hollow dreams
Bitch don't fuck with my team, we're the Holocene
Listen, I ain't caring bout Karens
They minds so fragile and barren
Ride sugar daddy's McLaren
Mad to the max Charlize Theron
Them weekend flights to McCarran
Bet all their bread on the barons
You want some cheese they ain't sharing
Got this disease from they parents
Entitlement is inherited
Bigotry is inherent
Humility is aberrant
Your infancy is apparent
You brought your guns to get hair done
Searching for losers look there's one
I'm out here schooling like Sheldon
Second big bang it will spare none, ay
Defilers of science the climate's a myth
We have the high ground Revenge of the Sith
Four billion life years but only the sixth
SpaceX will save us but that's just a trick
It's way too late to discover a new world
No more clean slates so they cash out like Bloomberg
Argue up high we regret-a like Thunberg
You a denier then we got two words
FUCK YOU
Burn in the hell that you've created for us
This carbon dioxide wasteland from burning down all the forests
Thermometers don't lie guys our home is getting warmer
Like our AC is broken and no ones fixing the transformer
The scorched earth so big black and beautiful like Lizzo
Entire world consumed by this craft of war like Blizzard
The one percent are farming your organs King Gizzard
Cuz ain't no planet B to escape to ya fuckin lizards
All black like an oil spill, we never seen
Lurking deep beneath the soil, cop that nether green
Save the earth from our regime, those some hollow dreams
The most invasive species yeah that be humanity
All black like an oil spill, we never seen
Lurking deep beneath the soil, cop that nether green
Save the earth from our regime, those some hollow dreams
Bitch don't fuck with my team, we're the Holocene
All black like an oil spill, we never seen
Lurking deep beneath the soil, cop that nether green
Save the earth from our regime, those some hollow dreams
Bitch don't fuck with my team, we're the Holocene

Humankind accomplished its dreams, long live Anthropocene

Didn't choose to be a human
Didn't ask for an early grave
Didn't choose to be an American
Didn't ask for this path we paved
Didn't choose to be a minority
Didn't choose to be the majority
Didn't ask for your authority
Didn't choose to be a slave
Gotta make do with this life we're given
Gotta make do with the time we got
Sometimes it's all so fucked up
But we can't just let us rot
So as much as I hate you all
Can't help but love you too
Cuz the one thing that could save us all
Is understanding I am you
And we are one
The enemy of extinction is regeneration
The enemy of apathy is education
The enemy of hostility is cooperation
The enemy of prejudice is communication
The enemy of incompetence is ingenuity
The enemy of disease is immunity
The enemy of hatred is empathy
The enemy of division is unity
The enemy of extinction is regeneration
The enemy of apathy is education
The enemy of hostility is cooperation
The enemy of prejudice is communication
The enemy of incompetence is ingenuity
The enemy of disease is immunity
The enemy of hatred is empathy
The enemy of division is unity
