about

Is civilization the ultimate state or is the source of illness we can't escape?

lyrics

It’s called a progress trap
Have you heard of that?
It’s nothing new but it’s worth a rap
Things we’ve developed to move fast that add to threat of system collapse

A progress trap can be techno crack
Like cars on gas, radiating gadgets, packaged snacks
Or cutting edge weapons that in seconds can blast foreign siblings in political masks

A progress trap
It’s like factory farms producing vast quantities of milk and meat
replete with antibiotics, hormones, ammonia and other treats
while animals and people suffer the beats

What’s your beef?
How sharp are your teeth?
We’re sharing knowledge on worldwide college
suspicious of big brother’s internet storage

Are we moving forward or getting slapped?
What the frack?
I’m an optimistic man
but it’s worth assessing the cracks on the turtles back.

Is civilization the ultimate state
Or is it the source of destruction we can’t escape?

I ain’t pretending to be the great light of trees
But I do believe in asking questions
and adopting inventions
only if they truly support our needs

Can you feel the same breeze?
It’s whistling past us while the continents bleed
