Naraka from Neraka by Hanten Kurosu

(ENG)
Something we once did
Must have been pretty fucked up
Maybe it’s all the power hunger

Maybe it’s our greed
The force that drove our species
To the self-destructive spiral that we now inhabit

How long until we can get out
Are we stuck here forever?
Are we digging our pit even deeper


We’re in Hell, we’re in fucking Hell
We’re in Hell, we’re in fucking Hell
Naraka


Explanation:
Naraka (or Neraka in some places) is essentially Buddhist Hell.
The idea is that there you pay for the sins you commited in life until you're pure again with highly personalized punishments.
Taking that concept, i put the idea of Earth being Hell and that, for things to be this bad, we must have been some real fucking garbage people.
Life is purgatory and you leave when you die.

The third, fourth and fifth line refer to an argument i have seen made by religious conservatives claiming that some sins are acceptable in low doses because they have helped humanity grow. Specifically, i'm referring to their argument for greed, because i don't think our economy should be driven by it.
