about

This song aims to show us that the world we live in is far more socially constructed than we realise. In a time of genetic and scientific determinism, we have been convinced that structures such as money, prisons and ecological consumption are innate realities that exist naturally and will always exist. This song hopes to open the question of whether these things are really as necessary as we think. Are prisons really needed? Is money the only way to trade goods? Do we have to fly, drive cars and take more from the earth than we put back in?

lyrics

Hold on tight and don’t let go
The realism of the world we created
Is so enticing our safety net is found
In everything we own

With every beat and with every breath
We recreate the world we’re stuck here living in
We can’t define ourselves and what we’re worth
Just by what we own

So, know what you’re doing
Learn, what you’re fighting for
Try to change the atmosphere
And find a reason to exist

We can’t be blamed for the world we inherit
But it’s our duty to leave the best behind
We can’t destroy this earth and what it’s worth
Just for what we own
