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
