Lyrics
Turned on the tv screen and what did I see
Turning on the TV and witnessing disturbing images
A video collage of our atrocities
Seeing a compilation of our wrongdoings
Turtles getting cut open by poachers
Observing poachers cutting open turtles
Knife how can I just look at that and not
Questioning how to witness such cruelty without being moved
Change my life
Feeling compelled to make a positive change in life
Sometimes my life is so lucky and
Reflecting on the varied fortunes in life
Sometimes its not
Acknowledging both fortunate and unfortunate moments
I'm lucky enough to do something more
Expressing gratitude for the opportunity to do something meaningful
Something else I saw that made
Encountering another impactful image
Me want to boff
Feeling a strong emotional reaction
It was a video of an elephants tusk
Watching a video depicting the removal of an elephant's tusk
While they were chopping it off
Witnessing the brutal act of chopping off the elephant's tusk
Why do us human beings have to wreck
Contemplating the destructive nature of humanity
Everything without a fuckin' thought
Expressing frustration at the thoughtless destruction of everything
Of the pain, yeah that it brings
Acknowledging the pain caused by human actions
Yeah that it brings, yeah that it brings
Repeating the acknowledgment of pain caused by destructive actions
Yeah that it brings
Emphasizing the suffering resulting from human behavior
Brings brings brings
Repetition for emphasis on the consequences of human actions
That it brings
Reiterating the acknowledgment of pain caused by destructive actions
Brings brings brings
Further repetition for emphasis on the consequences of human actions
Yes of the pain that it brings
Acknowledging the pain inflicted by destructive human behavior
Yeah that it brings
Reiterating the acknowledgment of suffering caused by human actions
