Up with trees down with capitalism
Humanity look in the mirror
What do you see?
Are you happy?
With the history?
Or where the future will be?
If we keep ourselves chained to the direction of the power hungry
What's your direction?
Is it possible to avoid intersection with environmental devastation?
Is this humanities fate?
Is this a karmic trait?
Asking questions
What's the underlying message?
Planet earth is changing
Floods fires storms rain raging
Humans neighbors society all caged in
Mental frames and our brothers in containment
Assimilation and annihilation on the level of Globalization
Even the United Nations says we got
12 years to limit climate degradation
Keep rising temperatures at a maximum of 1.5 degrees before 2030
Our leaders have a duty to take action
But they don't cuz they got self-interest stuck in their brain
So it's up to us the people to make a change
And rearrange the frame and stop playing their game
Fuck the strongman survival of the fittest politics
We taking action
Yeah we taking action
Up with trees down with capitalism
That's the message and the lesson
We all connected
Even though we neglect it even though we neglect it
Mother earth is crying
But we numb to the pain so we do nothing, so we do nothing
Damn so reluctant
I'm just trying to start a movement, that connects all movements
For positive change for positive change
Alright look
Capitalism's the enemy of nature
It's destroying our ability to live in the future
Nurture bad ego individually
Expenditure of freedom collectively
Always competing socially economically
Without regard for our habitat globally
But wait,
This economic system is a product
Of something deeply rooted in our culture relations on this earth
That we have nurtured since 3000BC
Based on hierarchy
Giving birth
To the reality we see
The collective human dream
Capitalism is the largest religious empire that history has ever seen
A line of lineage from the first emperor
Sargon waging bloody wars in the Middle East
Mesopotamia still under siege
Now by empires from overseas
Capitalist positivist philosophy
Reducing the world to a material physical perspective
Consume everything
The human eye can perceive
Up with trees down with capitalism
That's the message and the lesson
We all connected
Even though we neglect it, even though we neglect it
Mother earth is crying
But we numb to the pain so we do nothing, so we do nothing
Damn so reluctant
I'm just trying to start a movement, that connects all movements
For positive change for positive change
And we saying!
No more flint economics
No more standing rock economics
No more Reaganomics
No more Iraq Afghanistan and Libya imperialisms
No more Venezuela propagandas
No more no more
Neoliberalism
No more anti-democracy anti-economy capitalism
Grito Libertad
Liberating Gaia
The goddess of Mother Earth
For all its infinite worth
Would mean liberating ourselves
We planting literal and metaphorical seeds
From NYC across the Pacific and Atlantic sea
The movement's color is green
An international social movement to change what we see
From individualistic greed
To collaborative community
We are awake because our great grandchildren won't let us sleep
We the Indigo children
Be aligning with the elder indigenous
Rebelling against extinctions
For permanent global revolution evolution and liberation
Up with trees down with capitalism
That's the message and the lesson
We all connected
Even though we neglect it, even though we neglect it
Mother earth is crying
But we numb to the pain so we do nothing, so we do nothing
Damn so reluctant
I'm just trying to start a movement, that connects all movements
For positive change for positive change
