I was born in the Middle East It's kinda cool that Jesus was too Got me thinking if he were alive today Would border control let him through His passport says born in Palestine They thinkin he belongs to Hamas Pat him down standing tall with his arms out In position all that's missing is the cross It's like the world is split, are you a Montague or Capulet Do you care about the earth or not give half a shit Would you like some clean water and some permafrost Or just economic growth at all cost You want a world with open borders and a carbon tax Where we respect black lives and scientific facts Or are you voting for Koch Brothers and Goldman Sachs Racism, apartheid, drone attacks Yo this fire's been burning since the world's been turning And we can't put the fire out For that we need rain, for now we got drought Plus you still can't drink the water in Flint You can't drink the water in Lahore You can't drink the water in Gaza You can't drink the water if you're pore So waters not a human right for everyone But at the right price you can have some Evian My people thirsty and they just need some water lord But they only let us have it when they waterboard Was that too soon or was it too real Writing these rhymes the only way to deal J Dilla's got some beats I can't wait to kill Suu Kyi's got a prize I can't wait to steal Cuz after Rwanda we said never again Srebrenica, Darfur, never again Now we got Burma piling up coffins So I guess never again means every so often You study history it's hard to stay an optimist You read the news today it's hard to stay autonomous You on the internet it's hard to stay anonymous Big brother, black mirror, shit is ominous Sweat shop clothes yet we all still wearin em Snap more pics and we all still sharin em Post our lives and we all comparin em Make mills, take pills, fake Billzerians Im guilty of it too man I can't lie It's engrained in our heads and it can't die You're flaunting shit that you can't buy Well peacocks only strut cuz they can't fly Global call for change but no one listened We just listened to the markets cuz they're so efficient That's why we got such a high gini coefficient Multiplied by them climate changing carbon emissions This is happening even if you doubt it But it's depressing if you think too much about it Plus it's too much work to take action Much rather seek out the next distraction So pour a drink and some music to dance to Who won the oscars what's the new dance move What's good on Netflix, cancel your plans boo Just wanna numb our minds, that's all we can do
