What Am I Supposed to Be Writing About?

about

"What Am I Supposed to Be Writing About?" is my new song, out today. It's a meditation on revolution. What would it look like? What am I supposed to be writing about?

Haunting cover art by the brilliant Mabel Eldesuky. She adds: "The very people who promise to protect us make us sit and watch as the world burns and our people are exploited. Do I merely exist to observe? Is this what they really want?

What am I actually supposed to be creating?"

lyrics

What am I supposed to be writing about?
What am I supposed to be writing about?
Is it the poison in our waters?
The scorched earth for my daughter? Oh.

What am I supposed to be singing about?
What am I supposed to be singing about,
When I know nobody will hear me?
Technocracy won't clear me,
And if they did they'd fear me, smear me.

Do you know how a revolution works?
You just line them up and shoot 'em x6

Ah.

How am I supposed to be singing to you
When I know there's nothing I can do?
