"The Great Derangement" lyrics
(feat. Thea Alana)
[Thea Alana:]
La la la...
[Vinnie Paz:]
Yeah
Temperatures is risin'
Extreme weather events, people is dyin'
Chunks of ice in the Antarctic breakin' apart
Wild fires are breakin' my heart
Burn fossil fuels and chop down forests
November starts to feel like August
The planet is warmin' and we're the cause
Because we think the world is ours
Look at the Industrial Revolution
Kaczynski knew what he was doin'
Then there's orbital variation
That set off a cascade of changes
Emissions have geological impacts
But you don't understand environmental syntax
You think that cold weather prove that there's no change?
That it's an oversimplification from a close range?
Heat waves are 5 times more frequent
Exacerbated droughts from a short season
This is somethin' that you can't ignore
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure
[Thea Alana:]
All the lies we're told
We've lost control on this dreadful road
So when the rain don't stop
Where do we go?
[Vinnie Paz:]
Yeah
It's 80 plus ways to reduce carbon
Refrigerant management, grow a new garden
There's a gapin' hole over the Antarctic
Wind turbines apply the most logic
We're fossil fuel dependent
But now we're seein' fossil fuel divestment
Wind energy is part of the investment
Knowledge is a weapon
800 million people here hungry
A third of our food doesn't make it to the country
And who's gonna defy the command
Basic laws of supply and demand
Change date labelin' and how it's viewed
Reallocation of [?]
Tropical forest restoration
When we lose a forest we lose creation
When eco systems come back to life
Vegetation, soil, trees, they breathe life
Eat less meat and use less plastic
Use green energy where they have it
Create change in your workplace
We wouldn't be here in the first place
[Thea Alana:]
All the lies we're told
We've lost control on this dreadful road
So when the rain don't stop
Where do we go?
La la la...
[Vinnie Paz:]

Temperatures is risin'
Extreme weather events, people is dyin'
Chunks of ice in the Antarctic breakin' apart
