anthropocene ft. atlas

I love your music man, its beautiful. its been years..... I hope all is well. I would love to hear more if it was possible. Stay safe out there everyone <3

This was a different era in rap bro, I would often drift away from the trending 2016 rappers and listen to artist like samsa and atlas . The community was always the nicest

i miss samsa:(

it's 2024 now...

I finally found your music again🥲

just heard this for the first time today.
not bad.

I miss

lyrics:

I always knew that we'd be by each other's side forever
Now our time has come, and I'd be satisfied if we died together
Yeah, our climate's fucked, we might as well enjoy the weather
Our time is up, and I'd be satisfied if we died together
Look, all this talk of greenhouse gases got me taciturn
Let's just stick our tongues out in the poisoned rain and let the acid burn
And when the Earth swings out of orbit, we can spin in circles on the grassy ferns
And just pretend to watch its axis turn
And on the bright side, if the sun explodes before our April break
Then we won't have to do our tax returns
Here's the way I see it: if we're gonna die, let's do it on romantic terms
Like, we could linger on the boardwalk, watch tsunamis from the turf shore
I'll go get my board shorts, and you could bring your surfboard
Maybe we'll hold hands as we get swallowed into Earth's core
Or we could sing a Christmas carol, like a little chorus choir
By a thousand Christmas trees lit up from a forest fire
And watch the prancing, dashing comets blitz into the forest pyre
Not the reindeer, but the kind that killed the brontosaurus prior
And all its dino peers
And if the Ice Age hits, then we could be rancheros on the high frontier, Anthropocene pioneers
And melt each other's hearts on thawing glaciers in the cryosphere
The worst part is, this wasn't always something that we couldn't stop
Like, we lived through every benchmark
I remember- me and you read every update 'bout sea levels on our desktop
So, if we can't save us, maybe we could save the future from environmental deadlock
Maybe in an era when we're settled into bedrock
A later civ' would dig us out, we'd make headlines
Heck, we might even make a TED talk
And we could write a note, like, "Don't fuck up your planet, please
Look at how things turned out for humanity"
And maybe they would read it, or maybe they would use our carbon molecules
And particles from follicles as fossil fuel
Maybe it's impossible to change things, but we can try them anyway
Be carbon-complex renegades and then decay
And I would hold you near as we're infected by the Zika or Ebola scares
Get smoldered by a solar flare or iced out with the polar bears
I promise
I always knew that we'd be by each other's side forever
Now our time has come, and I'd be satisfied if we died together
Yeah, our climate's fucked, we might as well enjoy the weather
Our time is up, and I'd be satisfied if we died together
You and I could be capsulated inside a space
The size of a minute raisin in quiet and icy stasis
And when the fires slay our cryogenic hideaway
We could try to lie awake and dream about the finer days
Before the roads and paths were frozen, ashen plains
And the cities turned to itty bitty rows of crashin' planes
Crackin' pavement through the sad arrangement's broken after stains
Of blood and decimation, separatin' bones and mass from brains
When the days of olden past decay and exit through the years
We can lay in fields of shattered glass and question why we're here
If so many left this planet without any second chances
Why did we awake one morning to a separate time of cheer?
But the queries tend to drift and fade as eeriness can slip away
And hearing me, the loneliness demotes itself to in-your-face
Awareness of surroundings like photographs in picture frames
I'm glad to know it's only you and I among the flicking flames
Maybe even time can take a couple minutes off
And we can live forever while the planet is eclipsed in fog
It might boast disaster, dear, but we can sing a different song
And use the White House pillars as a mighty builder's Lincoln Logs
Make games of Chutes and Ladders out of real chutes and ladders
In an old apartment complex, like we even knew it mattered
Through the battered, beaten, broken bones, and factories and open homes
I'm sure we'd survive enough to see the moons of Saturn
Solvin' puzzles of the universe from Jupiter to Mars
Playin' scientists to try and say we flew there in our cars
Like, "Maybe it's not all bad, this scenic view's bizarre"
Watching hydrocarbon Neptune snow dissolvin' from the stars
And I never thought I'd say this, but frankly, it's been peaceful
To escape from that distasteful state of hate, deceit, and evil
Sure, a planet to ourselves is quite a journey for two people
But the only time I'm happy for is the time I get to see you
I always knew that we'd be by each other's side forever
Now our time has come, and I'd be satisfied if we died together
Yeah, our climate's fucked, we might as well enjoy the weather
Our time is up, and I'd be satisfied if we died together

This song is gonna hit real hard in 2024... See you all then!

I remember listening to this 5 years ago and now about to graduate high school and our Earth Science teacher is like "Yeah we're f***ed" but compared to before I'm more optimistic about what we can do :)
Also this song spitting bars as usual ahhahaahah

forgot about the name of this song for the longest time, it was still stuck in my head, but now i finally found it again ❤

still one of my favourite songs of all time honestly

Two legends in one song ❤️

6 years and still here

yeah its pretty good

I used to listen to this song on loop and play roblox kat 💀a few years ago

This song is trash. The singer is a leftwing degenerate and environmentalism is a darn Ponzi scam.

Thinking about this again, now that the Willow Project’s been approved ✌️🫠

Any one still listen to this.

I litteraly used to listen to you all the timeeee but then I forgot and got caught up in the main stream I was literally sitting on my bed and something a song said made me think of tinder samurai and now I'm just sitting here listening to all your songs.😌😌

miss u samsa

ugh their styles compliment each other so well

we're fucked

missin his songs fr

In the middle of the second 30°C+ heatwave the UK has had in the space of weeks - this song hits different now.

Ayo why this still hit different 2022....

I LOVE this song! You should make more!!!

dream collab, i literally, can't ask for nothing more

i pray for the day samsa comes back, even it just a tweet, just need to know how the dudes doin

I knew I heard Atlas on this track

Bro come back

I don't wanna be the crusty old boomer who calls this "edgy" and is completely dismissive of "kids these days" (even though I'm 24.) I like nature and don't want to see it burn down (even though much of it already has.) Do you guys actually care though? Do you guys really care about the environment? It feels like no one even goes outside these days, and that everyone lives comfortably in the burbs and spends all day on the internet.. Or maybe that's because there's hardly an outside left for kids to play in. Maybe that's because everything's been turned into ugly gray walmarts and parking lots. Fair enough. I wouldn't go outside if I had to see that either. Okay no, maybe my question is stupid - of course young people actually care, they care more than anyone. I grew up around all kinds of people who were part of the problem, and didn't really give a damn about anything. I've had to grow so much on my own, it's been a huge uphill battle.

yeah i miss you samsa

i was 10 when this came out and It has been 5 years and it is still a vibe.

everyone is saying how different this hits in 2020, what about 2022? keep up the good work bro hope you are doing good and enjoying life
