The air is thick it's hard to breathe
We built this cage with our own greed
Smoke stacks rise like a wicked dream
What's the price of this machine
Plastic seas and burning skies
The truth is hidden in the lies
We chase money we chase the fame
But we're all pawns in a losing game( check mate mother fucker)
Mother nature she's had enough
She's screaming loud but we act tough
Every action every choice
Could be the end of her voice
Warning signs we choose to ignore
Knocking loud on the planets door
Earth's crying out but we stay blind
We're running out of borrowed time
We been warned
They say beware the whispers in the air
A spark could burn us all beyond repair
Conflicts brewing everywhere we stare
Global warning but do we even care
We traded roots for a plastic tree
Chased the gold but forgot the key
Built these walls but they ain't that strong
Lost the right just to right our wrong
Skipped the dirt for a shining floor
Closed the door but we wanted more
Fed the beast with a greedy hand
Now we stand on sinking sand
Mirrors cracked but we love the view
Who's fucking who when you hide the truth
We were kings ( kofa)but we sold the crown
Climbing high just to fall back down
Easy living with a heavy price
Selfish hearts made of coldest ice
We neglect the world for our own high
Chasing comfort till the rivers dry
We been warned
They say beware the whispers in the air
A spark could burn us all beyond repair
Conflicts brewing everywhere we stare
Global warning but do we even care
I see the fire rising in the east
The warning signs they never cease
Shadows creeping where the light retreats
The world's at war while we chase peace
Borders breaking while the sirens scream
Nations crumble nightmare was dreams
Eyes wide shut we're chasing schemes
But no one's asking what it all means
History's lessons written in red
Still we march where angles fear to tread
Echoes of the past play loud in our head
But it's too late when the Earth's been bled
A warning bell but we mute the sound
Fighting over lines drawn in the ground
Fools with matches where the flames are found
We're all lost when the war comes around
We been warned
They say beware the whispers in the air
A spark could burn us all beyond repair
Conflicts brewing everywhere we stare
Global warning but do we even care
