I don’t feel the urge to think
about the impacts linked
to my acts and deeds
I would really have to admit
that I should probably quit
what's provoking it
I don’t feel the need to plant trees
cause everybody around me
has got enough air to breathe
I don’t wanna stop eating meat
I've got a family to feed
and my taste to please
I don’t need a fucking yuppie kid
telling the way that I should live
I don’t want a monthly bus ticket
when I can get a brand new car for it
but I feel fine
the water’s rising on the other side
so why would I waste a thought on my alibi?
just because we’ve been here for so long
doesn't mean that we can carry on
just because we outsource the thrill
doesn't mean that we won’t pay the bill
so why can’t you change your mind?
we are running out of time.
I won’t take the blame because I was raised like that
Í don’t care what you say ‘bout theories that I don’t get
if you work 45 hours and got bills to pay
there is no more headspace at the end of the day
I got all the reasons but I don’t wanna change
cause everyone around is gonna stay the same
but I feel fine
the fire’s burning on the other side
so why would I
waste a thought on my alibi?
I'll go on holiday surrounded by hell
where everything is burning but I’m still feeling well
if I can’t see it I don’t believe it
aggressive talk is not what I needed
the kids are getting nervous in the neighborhood
viscerally affected by covid, this album has a less optimistic but more accepting message than the previous. it reaches the heart of my experience (and others'?) in a cathartic and depressing acknowledgement. it's nice to know you feel the same niq
