xnomadx - the punishment lyrics
[intro]
rising from bottom to top, top to bottom
signs of rot, signs of sin
signs of sun, signs of water
in the air, in your lungs
[verse 1]
we have seen centuries that contain years
and years that contain centuries
ground of the enets became norilsk
and lenapehoking became a steel h+ll
we have failed time and time again
and always lapse into efforts to avoid
the punishment
[breakdown]
finally it comes, though
we felt it would as a stirring in the sky
and as a breaking of ice
[verse 2]
i have heard that stirring, as you have
i have heard the crumbling brick from across the earth
i have heard cries of the indigenous silenced
only to come manifest as fire
bodies have begun to fall in front of you
voices from the cold that warned of their own demise
you silenced their song, you ignored their cries
the blood is on our hands
[verse 3]
extinction events wrought
by consumptive greed
come to claim us
and we cry for change now
no weeping at corpses of cows or the sight of inuit starving
but only for the earth k!lling those that k!ll it
[outro]
we have failed time and time again
and always lapse into efforts to avoid
i have heard that stirring, as you have
i have heard the crumbling brick from across the
i have heard cries of the indigenous silenced
only to come manifest as fire
