Respire

Come closer, kid, listen up
I'm gonna tell you the story of the human being
At first, there was nothing, at first, it was good
Nature was moving, there were no paths
Then man showed up with his big shoes
Kicks in the face to earn respect
One-way roads he started to draw
Arrows in the plain multiplied
And all the elements were mastered
In the blink of an eye, the story was over
We won't be going back anytime soon
We even started polluting the desert

You need to breathe, and that's an understatement
You won't die laughing, and that's no joke

In a few years, we'll have devoured the leaf
And your grandchildren will only have one eye
Right in the middle of their forehead, they'll ask you
Why do you have two, you'll look like a fool
They'll ask you how you let this happen
You'll try to defend yourself, explain quietly
It's not my fault, it's the fault of the elders
But there'll be no one left to wash your hands
You'll tell them about the time when you could
Eat fruits in the grass, lying in the meadows
There were animals everywhere in the forest
At the beginning of spring, the birds would return

You need to breathe, and that's an understatement
You won't die laughing, and that's no joke
You need to breathe, tomorrow everything worsens
You won't die laughing, and that's no joke

The worst part of this story is that we're slaves
Somewhere assassins, here completely incapable
Of looking at the trees without feeling guilty
Half-naked, 100% miserable
So there you go, kid, the story of the human being
It's not pretty, and I don't know the end
You weren't born in a cabbage but rather in a hole
That we fill every day like a cesspool
