about

Teetering between moments of calm and others of tension, “Hypocrisy (it's all I see)” is a song that could be likened to some grunge productions more closely linked to psychedelic rock, with vocals sometimes violent and aggressive, at other times more delicate; always melancholic. The topic is directed at how often, especially in recent times, there is a trivialization in addressing every sensitive topic (related to ecology, integration) always pointing the finger in the wrong direction, always in favor of the status quo, never to criticize an economic system for which I, the consumer, do not want to give up what consumer society has taught me to desire, even if what I have learned to desire is precisely the reason why the things I criticize (climate change, labor exploitation) happen.

lyrics

You say we should
fight climate change
But you won’t shut your AC

We have, you said,
to integrate
minorities
but when they are exploited you won’t say a word, that’s mean


We have to fight
tha fascist wave
but then you vote for capitalism

You don’t eat meat
‘cause farming is
one of the causes of World pollution
but you don’t care to buy sustainable food: why?



I'm not sure your thoughts are clear
And you can’t see, you won’t see that you’re a fake


Hypocrisy
that's all I see
Only lies all around of me

Living your life
through a fucking screen
you think you’re righteous
but you’re just a slave,
you’re just fooling yourself ‘cause you don’t really care



You don't want to give up
to your consumer rights, that’s the point, you fucking nut
And all you say, all you say is just a play
