Add fuel to the flames Let the message rise high Stand and block their ways Time to expose their lies Can’t bear the madness The world is heating up So do the people Let’s put it on the map You’ve seen the madness When will you had enough Stand by your promise The waiting time is up Keep your promise Keep your promise Keep your promise Keep your promise To show colours I won’t cover my face To take action I won’t go out the way To show strength I refuse to hit back To leave no doubt I will shout it out I will shout it out loud Can’t bear the madness To show colours I won’t cover my face To take action I won’t go out the way To show strength I refuse to hit back To leave no doubt I will shout it out I will shout it out loud Add fuel to the flames Let the message rise high Stand and block their ways Time to expose their lies Music and lyrics by Maximilian J. Zemke (ZAPIENS)

We’re at fault, that’s a fact that we all can see Denial is unsustainable hypocrisy And it’s all for the wealth of our economy While the rest of the world drowns in poverty And we hold up the flag of democracy Tied up to the hammer of slavery But we still can decide who we want to be If we’re part of this blinkered society That silently hunts and silently kills In the name of a god called the dollar bill And that doesn’t even know what’s beyond the hill Made of gossip and self-doubt packed in plastic film There is no time to waste and you can not confide In the white fat old men who will mainly decide For the good of the company that pays him right It is us who must now make a change in our lives I won’t wait until the world awakes Because on that day it will be too late And the devil may care for us Devil may care for us but I don’t believe in hell I can feel there’s a need to appeal To the people that matter, not to the upper class heroes And the devil may care for them Devil may care for them but I don’t believe in hell We’re at fault, that’s a fact that we all can see Denial is unsustainable hypocrisy And it’s all for the wealth of our economy While the rest of the world drowns in poverty And we try to place responsibility On unmanned and self-taught machinery So we don’t have to show solidarity With the people who suffer to enable our weal I won’t wait ‘til the world awakes On that day it will be too late I won’t wait until the world awakes Because on that day it will be too late And the devil may care for us Devil may care for us but I don’t believe in hell I won’t wait until the world awakes Because on that day it will be too late And the devil may care for us Devil may care for us but I don’t believe in hell I can feel there’s a need to appeal To the people that matter, not to the upper class heroes And the devil may care for them Devil may care for them but I don’t believe in hell Music and lyrics by Maximilian J. Zemke (ZAPIENS)

Goodbye Let us Place a sign In memory of A witness of our crimes Let us Put it up Where your heart was For such a long time Our last breath Our last chance No one Will remember You ‘Cause so many more will follow you And disappear But even Sooner Long be- fore they’re All gone We will be Taking Our last Breath and They will Watch as we fade Our last breath Our last chance Music and lyrics by Maximilian J. Zemke (ZAPIENS)

about

ZAPIENS’ first EP came out in late 2019. The lyrics are focusing on the climat movement and the consequences of climate change, social injustice and inaction of politics.

I dedicate these songs to all those who stand up for a fair and livable world, and to all who continue to do so, regardless of any pushbacks or relapses. Every little achievement will have an impact. – MJZ
