Emergency

Lyrics

[Intro] This is an emergency! We need some action, urgently! This is an emergency! We need some action, urgently! [Verse 1] Your alternate facts Are just outright lies The white man in the suit Is the devil in disguise [Pre-Chorus 1] I ain't got no money Can't afford to eat right "I've got a question for you How do you sleep at night?" [Verse 2] Hearing is a blessing, but listening is a choice Your silence here is deafening; what's a thought without a voice You've chosen not to help us You've chosen pеrsonal greed You've chosen to stand back and watch the rising of thе seas There is no other option, if you want to survive I am no longer asking: it's imperative that we thrive Stop funding fossil fuels Our future's not in oil Nor is it in coal, we keep our carbon in the soil [Pre-Chorus 2] In a world that's fraught with suffering And fraught with inequality Will you answer the call? Will you act urgently? [Chorus] Emergency Emergency Emergency Emergency Emergency Emergency [Verse 3] I won't bring a child into this world until conditions improve There are better ways to live, to produce, and to consume We're not here to make you money We're not prepared to die We're not gonna take this lightly We won't turn a blind eye There must be drastic action, there must be revolution We must stabilise our homes to ensure our evolution Our planet can't keep burning, and our people can't keep dying We must break our heavy shackles and distort this institution [Pre-Chorus 3] I defy your corruption I defy your lack of haste We really need to see some results So c'mon pick up the pace [Chorus] Emergency Emergency Emergency Emergency [Chorus] Emergency Emergency Emergency Emergency Emergency Emergency Emergency Emergency
