[Lyric] Saharan Riptide Live / 8-31-21 (The Slums)

[Verse 1]
Mama knows best
Water not getting better
Spewing out
Blacker than pollution in the weather
Every summer
Drying faster than Sahara
No meat, no milk
Animals relying on the weather

[Bridge 1]
High emissions
Of cold lead
In the veins and brains
Of many children left dead
Waiting for the truck of life
To pass on by
Comes travelling down like a pharaoh
Cash in tears falling from your eyes

[Verse 2]
You don't bat an eye
To see the terror
Happening miles & miles away from your own hood
Lands of sand &
Not a drop of water
Starving families with mothers, sons, and daughters
[Bridge 2]
Whatever you do to the earth
You're doing to your children
The world works in cycles &
So is the life of man

[Verse 3]
You don't bat an eye
To see the terror
Happening miles & miles away from your own hood
Lands of sand &
Not a drop of water
Starving families with mothers, sons, and daughters

[Instrumental Break]

[Coda]
The heart of man turns away from nature;
Will quickly harden to stone

The heart of man turns away from nature;
We'll quickly harden to stone
