No GMO by Paul Izak Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2013

Alright now listen

It's time to educate
Here to communicate
Yes it's our health at stake
My friends don't be blinded

They're taking over the land
It's time we make our stand
It's time you know about companies like Monsanto
Oh no
Oh no

Polluting with chemical spray
Poisoning waters day after day
Kamehameha Schools said they could stay
Because they pay our way

Now look at the long term effect
When it's the land you neglect
The ahupua`a's been a wreck
You're looking for your paycheck
Where's the respect?
Let's put our faith in the natural way
Forget the chemicals
And your pesticide spray
Educate yourself for the children of today
'Cause food grown organic and pure
Will always be the number one cure
You'll all be grateful when you say
No to GMOs
Say no
To GMOs

I'll tell you what it stands for

Genetically modified organisms
Genetically modified organisms
GMO
Gotta say no
GMO

Well you will be asking yourself
"How does this effect my health?"
Most people eating GMOs and
They don't even know
Oh no
Oh no
Monsanto's the same company as
Roundup, Agent Orange, and PCB
Their products causing cancer
My friend they're not the answer
Not the answer

Now what are the steps we take?
To help to correct this mistake
First thing we could do is tell them
Label our food
Don't be so rude

The next thing we could do
Tell Kamehameha Schools
Remember kānaka maoli
Hawaiian sovereignty
Set the people free
Set the people free

Let's put our faith in the natural way
Forget the chemicals
And your pesticide spray
Educate yourself for the children of today
'Cause food grown organic and pure
Will always be the number one cure
You'll all be grateful when you say
No to GMOs
Got to say no
To GMO
Tell you what it stands for

Genetically modified organisms, yeah
I don't wanna be no
Genetically modified organism

Hey now
Pure organic
Tell 'em

Now Monsanto and other big name biotech companies are planning to take over the food and seed crop production so that all crops will be genetically modified. They're polluting the land and poisoning the people. This is happening in the world and this is happening in Hawai`i
We must ask ourselves

Do we really wanna be
A genetically
Oh modified
Organism
