VERSE 1:
I watch the history rewinding
right in front of my eyes
This livestream’s too much
where can I unsubscribe?
It’s chaos
without a symphony
no beauty in violence
when it happening to me
I don’t recognize the world
what does anything even mean
past, present, future
is it double speak
Everything is saturated
There’s no room for nuances
I’m starting to question myself
what is real
Oh gosh this negativity
is burning me out
we scorching this earth
to make the blue chips sprout
I’m watching this mayhem
Scared but entertained
There’s nothing I can do
but I know that I’m part of it
I don’t wanna have anything to do with it
but I’m the cause
I’m number two
in the food chain
I’m the second most privileged primate in the game
I’m number two
in the food chain
I’m trying, but I should be trying ever better
I’m trying, but I should try better
Why can’t we just sit together under the baobab trees
we got two ears and one mouth
you know what that means
CHORUS
I fear that I’ve wasted my chances
I fear that it’s too late
I fear that we’ve wasted our chances
I fear that it’s too late
VERSE 2:
”You caused this”
I’m a white monkey who escaped Chernobyl
cute and harmless, until what I represent kills you
(did I really kill you?)
Now let me explain:
It’s eighty eight
and the TVs on
a sketch show is playing
indigenous jokes
Kinda harmless and fun
we kids repeating that song
no one’s heard of punching down
hey sing along!
And now I’m thinking what on earth have I been exposed to
a lil’ girl like a sponge taking everything in
but how do I grieve this guilt and exhaustion?
what kind of holy water can get these stains clean?
It’s radioactive
we’re all contaminated
let’s pretend it doesn’t exist
yet we keep radiating
I’m a white monkey who escaped Chernobyl
cute and harmless, until what I represent kills you
(did I really kill you?)
So what’s my legacy?
cut trees and other people’s ancestry?
but even we have roots
buried under the cross and the crown so deep
I never knew those did exist
but now the goddess in me
is healing…
I want to be
a phoenix…
but I’m a white monkey who escaped Chernobyl
no matter what I do is this what I will always do?
No matter what I do is this what I will always do?
No matter what I do is this what I will always do?
CHORUS
I fear that I’ve wasted my chances
I fear that it’s too late
I fear that we’ve wasted our chances
I fear that it’s too late
But I can’t afford to stop fighting
I’m learning how to love
I can’t afford to stop trying
I’m learning how to love
OUTRO
It is what it is
but I gotta love it
It is what is
but I’m gonna love it
