lyrics

1st verse:

They say the eve of the atom was the dawn of a huge bang,
it was all dark then the sun and the moon came,
light upon the water gave the skies a blue stain,
but when the sun started going down, the hue changed,
Then came the predators that growl and use fangs,
People couldn't see them so they had to produce flame,
the only thing that got us to the top of the food chain,
Above all the animals like cattle who chew grain, we use brains,
Took fossils and move trains, now we put butane into the fuel tanks
the world's illuminated, from a bird eye view plane, but if it gets dark, watch it get inhumane, most of us make it on a budget that's shoestrang, and crippled by the original boy in blue gang,
But blue collars don't protect your neck like Wu-Tang,
So if we lose power, I won't find it too strange, there's only a few sane

Chorus:
If the lights go off
Watch it all change
If the lights go off
Lets see if you like a boss
If the lights go off
No apple or Microsoft,
They might say it's a solar flare,
If the lights go off,
But hold on we almost there,
If the lights go off,
they'll be worshipping the sun,
If the lights go off,
So I hope you got a gun,
If the lights go off,

2nd verse:

The world's going through a bizarre stage, sorta like the dark age, marked by a harsh plague
Looking for a cure, It's no wonder we stargaze, but tell me why did light and dark ever part ways?
Ain't this physical ...plane invisible, formless without both forces as principles? As above so below,
So black holes, might trap souls,
that flow interdimensional,
Is your religion in accordance with the solar system, living organisms and noble gases that go through fission,
Or does it just lead to more division,
Profiting from war and prisons, either way, it's your decision
Spirits burn out like tire tracks, passion drawn out, now they need their fire back, can lightning strike twice? Or is it just like a match?
Another dwarf star slowly going from white to black,

Chorus

3rd verse:

It's freezing cold, and you gotta pay to heat your home,
Why feed the po' when you can sell him GMOs,
Everything we eat is cloned, sterilized seeds are sewn, before they harvest, farmers gotta sign the
lease to grow,
They locking people up for growing greens at home, can't collect rainwater, that's against the legal code, seems evil so, I'm waiting on EMP, to let my people go, for sho, cuz they don't want see em free,During protest only time they appear fast, tanks and dogs, rubber bullets and tear gas, I hope it gets so dark they can't see through that clear mask, this is Molotov music, coming out the beer glass, We came first, so you know that we'll be here last, and if you learned, anything from the near past, they'll burn the whole city down, until it's only mere ash, so get ready when you hear blasts
