Written about the price of convenience. At some time we'll need to pay the bill. Maybe not now, but sometime.
E.P. 'Enjoy the Journey!' out June 8th!!
LYRICS:
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
You know we, got it backwards like the past comes after, the future's before the present, neither matters just this moment live it,
The second hand counts down the minutes to hours we plant the days like seeds they Grow into the flowers,
some say we should not be praying to the sky above,
In fact it's the earth and dirt we should be showing our love,
I'm not talking 'bout our faces to the ground
with our cell phones in our hands
And real life passing us by right now
[pre Chorus]
We don't own things, they own us
Oh-oh-oh, there is no game with no players, woooo
[Chorus]
So how much does convenience cost,
we gained a thing but we lost control
Just like our rivers where the plastic flows,
So how much does convenience cost
So how much does convenience cost,
we gained a thing but we lost control
Just like our oceans where the plastic flows
how much does convenience cost
Go-oh-oh
[Verse 2]
You know we're selling our future for right here, right now
Eventually it's gonna catch up to us some way, somehow
Today should not come at the cost of tomorrow
Today should be the day we become like aficionados
Because our guilty pleasures, easy come, easy go
When we buy in, we sell short, give up control
Nothing's gonna change until we're truly honest with ourselves
Follow the money, we see who's funding this consumer cartel
[pre Chorus]
We don't own things, they own us
Oh-oh-oh, there is no game with no players, woooo
[Chorus]
So how much does convenience cost,
we gained a thing but we lost control
Just like our rivers where the plastic flows,
So how much does convenience cost
So how much does convenience cost,
we gained a thing but we lost control
Just like our oceans where the plastic flows
how much does convenience cost
Go-oh-oh
[Bridge]
We are born into this system, we have no choice
Just a sense of freedom, with no real voice
And no real chance to self-actualize, it's material lies,
We personified, hey, hey, until today
I promise you this, we are all brothers and sisters
Until the end, until the end
[Chorus]
So how much does convenience cost,
So how much does convenience cost
So how much does convenience cost,
how much does convenience cost
[Chorus]
So how much does convenience cost,
we gained a thing but we lost control
Just like our plastic where the rivers flowed,
So how much does convenience cost
So how much does convenience cost,
we gained a thing but we lost control
Just like our plastic where the oceans flowed,
how much does convenience cost
Go-oh-oh
[Outro]
So how much does convenience cost,
we gained a thing but we lost control
How much does convenience cost,
we gained a thing but we lost control
Just like our plastic where the ocean flowed
How much does convenience cost,
Everything
