Earth B

Live on your feet
Even if you can't stand or your legs tremble
It's a metaphor this movement is accessible
We don't leave our people behind
We build ramps and work together
Ensure restroom access
And feed the hungry
Are you hungry?
You should be. Your soul can't possibly chew enough meat
In this vapid culture
Of consumption and overproduction
Shit not needed
We needs doctors and nurses
Not insurance companies
Fuck the corporate middle man in between
Syphoning blood money off the sick and the dead
How about everyone gets Medicaid instead
That math works better
As do it's outcomes
And if you have doubt son
Travel, research, read
It's cheaper to treat diseases and sickness
And why, why isn't marijuana legal
A plant can treat 20 medical conditions
Safer, cheaper, and more effective
Than most of those deadly pharmaceutical concoctions the bastard's selling
And it's telling
That at best the news is half true
Information is now a corporate product too
But the question is
What are you going to do
What are we going to do
It's to that point
We want a future for our kids?
We will have to throw our bodies
On the gears and the wheels
Break the system that's breaking the planet
There is no Earth B
Power won't give shit
Never has, never will
