Less

from Even If Alone by Genuine

lyrics

How about we use less less! Less! Less, and do our best. How ‘bout we use less. The planet has had enough stress. We humans, (with) our need to possess—more than we need—to impress others around us. I am to blame, we are the same. And, I can’t proclaim that I have no shame. Diminish this flame, should be the aim. We know that less is more in this high stake game, (this) game!. Is there really a winning, if the earth stops spinning? Is there really a winning, if the earth stops spinning? Oh, I’m getting dizzy just thinking about it. So much waste, we can agree that it’s a problem (that) we never thought we’d face. But, are we doomed? By the things we thought we’ve needed then and never did consume? I ask again, are we doomed? And somehow—even now—let’s all vow to not allow ourselves to give up. We’re not yet doomed, not yet doomed. So let’s use less, let’s use less. The planet has had enough stress. We humans, (with) our need to possess—more than we need—to impress others around us. Let’s use less. Or your children, your family, your friends—all you hold dear to you—they will need to clean up our mess. Do we trust them to do their best? Oh, it may be too late, it might be too late, it may be too late, it’s getting late. Every hand helps, every step counts, as this unbelievable pressure… it mounts.

(The earth is on fire, how shall we react?)
