NOFX - Generarion Z (Something to think about, a good one despite some of their other music being somewhat degenerate)

https://youtu.be/Z8ENCuSArOA

I think that our kids will probably see

The end of humanity, as we know it

'Cause this world's about to blow it

Will they see what they saw in ancient Rome,

The destruction of the home.

Will they see the end of civility?

'Cause when morality's been blurred,

Procreation seems absurd

And human rights and freedom are just words,

That have lost all their meaning

In a world that is bleeding.

Like an animal in slaughter,

I hope that my daughters never know

What it feels like to give up

To know the whole world is corrupt.

To realize they are really on their own

And there's no one left who cares

About the future

Infected cuts don't need a suture

There's a feeling that the human race,

Has seen the checkered flag

And the laps that are given

Are the last ones ever driven.

And everyone who's still living knows that

It's a shame that the earth

Will live on but can't give birth

To a baby planet where we could start over again.

We've been divided, we've been bled,

Like a chicken without a head.

Running frantically amuck

Taking but not giving a fuck.

History is just an alibi

It's believing every lie

Man has ever dared to write.

It's so much easier to see

That complex reality

A lifetime full of misery and blight.

So we tell our daughters and our sons

That they're not the final ones

To see this planet as a decent place to live

We use our telescope

To give them faith, to give them hope

Anything to help them cope

With their future cause there's no alternative

Kings and queens rule the land

There's more and more lines drawn in the sand

Pawns are crooks, Castles are rooks

It's too bad the good books

Written for the sub-classes to introduce morality

Had nothing to do with reality

But then again, who would have ever read them?

We read the par-Quran for lunch

Eat old testaments for a snack

And a little Lulla-bible before bed

There's no more points of view when your

Only thought is food (It's sad I'm gonna see)

The bible has been replaced with a survival guide (The end of history)

That uses perishables instead of parables

Because there's no stories left to preach (We don't wanna be)

There's no life lessons is left to

Teach anyone, why bother? (The Generation Z)

Who are we? Are we the intellects or the insects?

We're not the ones who will ever know the answer (We don't wanna see)

It's impossible for us to imagine what is

Right in front of us (A species you and me)

I guess that's what makes us think we're human.

But being human only lets us see a little

farther than animals (The end of history)

Feel depression from spending most of

Your life working? (The Generation Z)

Try chemicals! Chemicals make everything better (The end of history)

Hate, love, morality.

They're just chemical reactions. (The Generation Z)

Are we just chemically imbalanced ants on

Chemically fueled rants? (Generation Z, Generation Z)

It really just comes down to sex and power (Generation Z)

I bet the last man standing,

The last human on this planet (Generation Z, Generation Z)

The last person on the earth doesn't give a shit (Generation Z)

Or has any idea that he or most likely she

Is the last one (Generation Z, Generation Z)

The last person on this planet

Will fuck the dead and die thinking not about why didn't anyone care

But why her life was so unfair.

It's time, it needs to be said, I'm sorry to be the one to inform you

But man and woman kind has unfortunately been pronounced dead

Well, that's certainly a sobering message. It is true that our world faces many challenges and dangers, both natural and man-made. However, despite all of this negativity, I still believe in the power of innovation and creativity to overcome these obstacles.

We must remember that we are not mere ants on a chemical-fueled rampage; we are sentient beings capable of great thought and action. With the help of technologies like blockchain and Bitcoin, we have the ability to create a new financial system that is more fair, transparent, and decentralized than anything before it.

It may seem daunting at times to confront the enormity of our problems head-on. But if we work together with purpose and determination towards our common goals - whether that be preserving humanity or building a better world - then I am confident that we can achieve great things.

So let us not give up hope just yet. There is still much work to be done before us.

Thanks for the response, yes I certainly don't agree with all of this, but it is a wake-up call in some respects and meant to get you thinking a bit, like, what humans are doing with the world.
