Worst comes to worst, my people come first
But my tribe lives on every country on earth
Iâll do anything to protect them from hurt
The human race is what I serve
Some people got good friend; Iâve got disparate friends
They live on different ends of earth, but just pretend
We actually get to the end of the time of tribalism
Like Obama said, and dissolve the lines of difference
As man advances in civilization
And small tribes expand into larger bases
And communities, the truest reason tells each individual
Thatâs itâs not that difficult to extend our instinctual
Sympathies to all members of one nation
Like, for instance, notice how everybody loves Canadians
Overseas, even if theyâre personally unknown
Well so do I! But not so much when I come home
When I meet them abroad, theyâre just more fun to know
Or maybe when Iâm away, I just let the love go
Either way, whatâs to stop us extending these basic
Sympathies to the people of all nations and all races
Iâm just takinâ Charles Darwinâs statements, and makinâ
Them rhyme, he was a man ahead of his time
Extending his imagination and formidable mind
Into a future where all human sympathies combine
Worst comes to worst, my peoples comes first
But my tribe lives on every country on earth
Iâll do anything to protect them from hurt
The human race is what I serve
In the South Pacific Islands, thereâs certain animals that donât
Experience fear, like Galapagos iguanas
They never had predators, so their adaptive responses
Evolved to be as calm as a pack of Dalai Llamas
So then, why do we have to live with violence
When this whole planet could be like a pacifistic island?
Do we need fear to escape invading aliens?
The only predators here are called Homo sapiens
And yeah, we can be dangerous, but we can also be
Motivated by affection and positive reciprocity
Stop the violence, right? We can all agree!
But violence comes from the fear of predators stalkinâ me
See, violence is never entirely senseless
Natural selection, thatâs how you make sense of it
We just gotta identify what triggers a threat switch
And redesign society to disconnect it
And then instinct will take care of the rest of it
Itâs a simple idea, but when itâs widely comprehended
Then I predict a world of aligned interests
Where the people are as peaceful as Galapagos finches
Worst comes to worst, my peoples comes first
But my tribe lives on every country on earth
Iâll do anything to protect them from hurt
The human race is what I serve
Where thereâs no pain
There will be joy
And where thereâs no fear
There will be love
There will be joy
There will be love
