The calm before the storm
Signs that should've warned
All of them ignored
All of them ignored
We knew the world would not be the same
It's gon get worse before it gets better
Few people laughed few people cried
I told you that you should be preparing for revolution
And maybe I was wrong
(Most people were silent)
Maybe what you should preparing for is
Science to confer upon us as its final gift
The power
To erase human life
The world is turning at a thousand miles an hour
Time is ours
Minutes and seconds and infinite subdivisions
That disconnect us from the higher power
We're finding ourselves at the intersection
Of the ruses truths and what's fate or choosin
Soon or later you decide it now or get ferried to it
No one man should have all that kind of power like Harry Truman
Many humans will be buried by it by the few who get married to it
Or inherit the ruins like Eisenhower
The survivors and cowards in ivory towers
Playin both sides biding the time to demise
Who are you in the final hour?
How far have we come in man's long pilgrimage
From darkness toward the light?
Are we nearing the light?
Fear leads to anger
Anger leads to hate
Hate leads to suffering
I sense much fear in you
Tyrants warlords and pious morons
Sittin there in the chair well aware that it's hardly a hot seat
When you got cheese that could bribe the court
But of course that's par for the private course
And of course chauffeurs can't drive a Porsche on thin air
So mind yours til the sky is orange
Hold high the torch and push cycles forward
Man evolved and the Cannibal Giant was born
World on fire can't curb our desire for more
Why settle for the iron and ore?
We want it all with no eitheror
Unlimited supply of finite resources
