[Verse 1]
The sky serpents have come to show their true face
Not much different from us, still a humanoid race
We've cut the corners, we've cheated this place
The Earth older than time, but yet we've evolved from apes
Go ahead, go fold to the fingers of time
Wasting each day gifted from the divine
Arguing, fighting, fucking this place
Fingers pointed at each other like we've accepted our fate
[Breakdown]
You were taught how to hate
Fools
Where are the bones
[Chorus]
Brothers, sisters, holders of earth
Don't bear your teeth to the ignorance
Embrace the moment for what it is
I can't remember the last
I took your advice, you can't look in the mirror
Brothers, sisters, holders of earth
Don't bear your teeth to the ignorance
Embrace the moment for what it is
I can't remember the last
I took your advice, you can't look in the mirror
[Post-Chorus]
Love
Unite
Rebuild
Fix this fucking place
[Verse 2]
So listen baby, it's the last damn time I'm saying this
Because the world's been eating mother fucking shit
Plate after plate
Shoveling shit
So listen baby, it's the last damn time I'm saying this
Because the world's been eating mother fucking shit
When will you care
[Bridge]
Suddenly it's clear to me that I gave into you
I've shown you all you had to see and you ignored the proof
Cognitive dissonance seems to be the only goddamn view
How is misery a choice for me when I rebuke the news
When a fallacy is home to me I'm so goddamn confused
When tyranny and thievery are fueling all that they do
When the air you breathe to what you do was a poison made for you
[Chorus]
Brothers, sisters, holders of earth
Don't bear your teeth to the ignorance
Embrace the moment for what it is
I can't remember the last
I took your advice, you can't look in the mirror
Brothers, sisters, holders of earth
Don't bear your teeth to the ignorance
Embrace the moment for what it is
I can't remember the last
I took your advice, you can't look in the mirror
