The Sea Is Rising Lyrics

And all I know is the sun is shining, yet we fight on through the night
While the burgs are melting and the sea is rising I don't know so I ask them why
Yeah, why are they refusing to listen
Why are these troops on a mission?
And why are they shooting these victims over their view on religion
Yeah why do we all search for love like we got cupids addiction
Why with politicians you can't tell the truth from the fiction
Why do we pollute where we're living?
Why are these youth put at risk?
And why is this fool on dominion kept us consumed in this prison
I won't jump through the hoops of this system
Nothing stands between you and the pursuit of your vision
I grab a loop of this rhythm it's puts the juice in my pistons
So jump back, react spit in the boots with precision
When I'm cruising with ism' yeah I'm doosing the spliff
It's a BNE show bitch getting loose was a given
I don't want them to look back when the future was written
And know we killed ourselves with nuclear vision and stupid decisions
Shit I'd rather an asteroid due for collision then know the planet got fucked by the human condition
Sing the tune with conviction!
All I know is the sun is shining yet we fight on thought the night
While the burgs are melting and the sea is rising I don't know so I ask them why
And all I know is the sun is shining yet we fight on through the night
Well if you don't know shit I don't know I guess all we can do is ask them why

Yeah I'm an old school poet I cherish the ink
That cosmic cowboy that doesn't care what they think
Real magic isn't card tricks big cribs and cars bitch
It's making something out of nothing through this hardship
And even though we know that the earth is weak
We still bomb each other and idol what the churches speak
It's like this land is either run by Labour or Liberal
But don't get entwisted they're the same as the criminals
Open your eyes simply notice the issue
That we stuck to our guns without promoting the pistol
We only orchestrated the sound that we all love
Split because of colour but bound because of blood
So before we all blow and they sell the scene
Know that the only thing that's bullet proof is my self esteem
See this is way beyond cash, and ego tripping it's an epic electric eso ecosystem
Grow with me!

All I know is the sun is shining yet we fight on thought the night
While the burgs are melting and the sea is rising I don't know so I ask them why
And all I know is the sun is shining yet we fight on through the night
Well if you don't know shit I don't know I guess all we can do is ask them why

I don't have to tell you things are bad
Everybody knows things are bad
Pollutions recognise the icecaps are melting quick
Kids trust no one and why else would they
The air is unfit to breathe, our food is unfit to eat
It's an inferno land, pollutions recognise the icecaps are melting quick
Fuck all that shit; we are here together in this country as one
As fucking one!
It's all about peace, love and unity
Sing it, peace, love and unity
All I know is the sun is shining yet we fight on thought the night
While the burgs are melting and the sea is rising I don't know so I ask them why
And all I know is the sun is shining yet we fight on through the night
Well if you don't know shit I don't know I guess all we can do is ask them why

Bliss n Eso are an ARIA award winning Australian hip hop group based in Sydney, Australia and were originally known as Bliss n' Esoterikizm. They formed in 2000.

From an early stage in their career, Bliss N Eso primarily built their fan base from their compelling and energetic live performances. An exhilarating blend of fluid rhymes and banging beats teamed with beat boxing, impromptu freestyling and seamless turntablism make their live shows a brand in their own right, and has seen the group hailed as one of the best live acts in the country. After four years of touring with consistently powerful performances, Bliss N Eso settled down in 2004 to record their first full length album Flowers In The Pavement. A virtual brainstorm on record, the emerging artists compiled track after track of wild expression through vibrant lyrics and production. The debut album met an overwhelming response from audiences and critics Australia wide.

In late 2006, Bliss N Eso's second album, Day of the Dog, was released and became the first Australian hip-hop release to debut in ARIA's top 50. It also earned Bliss N Eso an ARIA nomination for Best Urban Release in 2006 with sales exceeding all benchmarks for a local hip-hop release. In 2007 Bliss N Eso travelled to North America, playing sold out shows in the North-West of the US and Canada including a stand out performance at the Whistler 2007 Telus World Ski and Snowboard Festival. Upon their return, the lads embarked on the unforgettable Make Poverty History Zero Seven road trip tour and ventured on an epic journey in June 2007 with MTV and the Oaktree Foundation to some of the poorest regions in South Africa to complete the track and shoot the video clip for their next album's first single, Bullet and a Target. 2008 saw Bliss N Eso take things to a whole new level with the release of their third LP, Flying Colours.

The album, which received near perfect reviews in countless media, broke all kinds of records for an Australian hip-hop act thanks to four monster singles in the form of Bullet and a Target, Woodstock 2008, The Sea is Rising and Eye of the Storm. After a top 10 ARIA debut, the album became the highest selling local hiphop album of the year and with their third nomination in as many years, Bliss N Eso took out the ARIA Award for 2008's Best Urban Release. The official album tour sold out every one of its 24 legs including an unforgettable homecoming show at Sydney's Enmore Theatre in front of 2,500 lucky ticket holders. After ten phenomenal years, these three troublemakers from Sydney's suburbs are officially in unchartered territory – which is exactly where they like to be.

Bliss N Eso has just released their latest album called running on air. Debuting at the end of july featuring there latest hit down by the river (link below for their new film clip) . there album is on its way of becoming a great succsess like all their previouse albums.
