letra de mama (the state of things) - vr

i grew up with a lot green around me
brought up with the finest of the finery
but burning trees are the only thing that i see
i numb the thoughts with another shot of hennessey

i’m in au but the fires here are frightening
the sky is red, and the streets are filled with violence
people talking, they don’t even know the half of it
the government gets ready to sell up all that’s left

we’re struggling to feel connection to each other
were triflin’ we should have listened to our mothers
when they said “baby boy the world’s your oyster”
‘cause wait too long and it’s gone
with all our water
how many times have you lied
tryna make sense of it?
how many times have you cried
tryna just get free? but it
feels like the only one time
we even bother trying
the man just kicks us back down
and so we go on fighting

mama, i don’t wanna go home
just let me stay another 5 minutes or so
mama, i don’t want to go cold
but out here on the playground it’s getting a little too warm

mother, can you hear me now?
tryna save the world, fighting demons in the streets and
brother, do you fear me now?
tryna save your heart, i can barely feel it beat
and love, do you feel it now?
pouring out my light tryna make some heat
and heat, do you feel it now?
the earth is heating up and we can’t stop it

we are the future of us and the only ones who can stop this
be, be victorious in slowing this down ‘cause we’re running out of options
see a future for us, one that’s filled with nature and wild things
free of those of us who would see it burn for profit
tryna keep my dollars on lock yeah
but that really don’t make no sense
tryna keep myself on top? sh-t!
i’m barely on top of my health!
is this all our people got? sh-t!
i was thinking we were stronger than that!
is this how we going to solve this?
pretending we don’t care?

is this what the world has become?
sympathy for you? i have none
trying to make your dough
while your children burn in tandem
is this all now all we cry
in the face of oblivion?
well, it’s alright, fingers in your ears
just close your eyes and stand down!

mama, i don’t wanna go home
just let me stay another 5 minutes or so
mama, i don’t want to go cold
but out here on the playground it’s getting a little too warm
mama, i don’t wanna no more
just praying for another five minutes of hope
mama what the h-ll is this for?
working tryna save you but they beating down the front door
mama, i don’t wanna go home
just let me stay another 5 minutes or so
mama, i don’t want to go cold
but out here on the playground it’s getting a little too warm
mama, i don’t wanna no more
just praying for another five minutes of hope
mama what the h-ll is this for?
working tryna save you but they beating down the front door

i’m tired, i’m tired mama
