Ill Effect
We're all links within these chains
That keep this system fixed in place
So many lives are suffering
We're just watching
It's nothing new we're well aware
What we consume has an ill effect
On all of our surroundings
But it's happening
How long?
You would have thought by now
We should have figured it out
These gears keep turning at full steam
By design we make it to break
So it must be replaced
One time use
Then we throw it away
Produce consume dispose repeat
Your soon to be obsolete
Tax havens, modern slaves
Accountabilities been erased
By corporate sponsored leaders
We appease them
Fossil fuels and Toxic waste
End up in the waterways
The ice is slowly melting
Are we helping?
So what
Will we tell our children?
When they work out
What we've ruined
Press on toward catastrophe
By design we make it to break
So it must be replaced
We're one time use
Then we throw it away
Disposable society
Your soon to be obsolete
Is nothing sacred anymore
A future worth fighting for
That keep this system fixed in place
So many lives are suffering
We're just watching
It's nothing new we're well aware
What we consume has an ill effect
On all of our surroundings
But it's happening
How long?
You would have thought by now
We should have figured it out
These gears keep turning at full steam
By design we make it to break
So it must be replaced
One time use
Then we throw it away
Produce consume dispose repeat
Your soon to be obsolete
Tax havens, modern slaves
Accountabilities been erased
By corporate sponsored leaders
We appease them
Fossil fuels and Toxic waste
End up in the waterways
The ice is slowly melting
Are we helping?
So what
Will we tell our children?
When they work out
What we've ruined
Press on toward catastrophe
By design we make it to break
So it must be replaced
We're one time use
Then we throw it away
Disposable society
Your soon to be obsolete
Is nothing sacred anymore
A future worth fighting for
