lyrics

die
you and I die

this is how we die
we decimate supply
it resonates in the rate
we created lives
but we don't wanna go
we wanna beat it out
the population grows
it never evens out
so we speak about
a greener way to live
and people come to believe
that's the way it is
but this is how it's been
we overpopulated
'cuz human animals are
obsessed with copulatin'

remember what you heard
it wasn't just rumors
our only place
is to generate new consumers
baby boomers, the vein of our economy
the kids who became a strain on our economy
and yeah, it's complicated
as it convolesces
the conversation has redirected our objectives
the elected officials of our collective
are stuck sifting through the mess they were left with

[what is the ultimate science can offer?]
[we have been given continuous life, perpetual life]

die

this is how we die
we decimate supply
it resonates in the way
that we stay alive
'cuz we don't wanna go
we wanna beat it out
the population grows
it never evens out
so we speak about
a cleaner way to live
and people's faith gets
replaced by its medicine
when all it really is, even at its best
is a high-priced liable educated guess
it may be viable, it may be over-rated
but its reliablity has been overstated
and its deniablity has been demonstrated
'til the caution for the cause
gets elevated
then we celebrate it
we honor the survivors
even though in the end they will die to spite it
I don't try to hide it
even if it's awkward
it's so absurd y'all are prayin' to a doctor

[what is the ultimate science can offer?]
[we have been given continuous life, perpetual life]

die

you can live it up
and you can live it out
or you can give it up
and you can live without
or can suck it up
and you can stick it out
or you can think enough
to try to figure out

how to make it better
how to fix the problem
my suggestion is
there's only two options
stop makin' babies
or let people die
I say a little of both
but I'll let you decide
