  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    Limited edition Signed 1st pressing of A Better Way on a gorgeous transparent teal vinyl (140 g Crystal Blue Curaçao, to be exact.). Only 200 available! It sounds incredible and looks amaze balls on your mantle or your wall, if you’re one of those legends who buys vinyl but doesn't have a record player! The vinyl album contains a 4 page booklet with lyrics for all songs + liner notes. Manufactured in Paris, France.

    "There’s no true environmentally sound solution to producing vinyl records. After months of research into the options, given global supply chain issues and up to a year-long delay in delivery times, the best option for A Better Way was to go with an energy efficient manufacturer who creates as little waste as possible, and who was based in Europe to reduce delivery distance. The 140g weight was chosen to reduce PVC needs without jeopardising sound quality and the exterior is packaged in 100% compostable film that meets EN13432 standards. Each vinyl album sold is offset with a carbon credit."

lyrics

Somebody coming for us Lord I’m praying
Help everybody who was told to stand outside
The one percent inside all misbehaving
Their greedy hands firmly both side of the divide

I need some sanity I’m sick of waiting
We have a voice why do we let the suits decide
The planet’s losing patience
The change is happening right now, you can’t deny

Oh baby it’s cold outside
Is this being free?
They just want us
In our seats
Oh baby lost at sea
Is this being free?
Oh the money supreme
Soon obsolete

My friend said it’s the rising not the waking,
Oh can you hear the power that sweet Nina cried?
Let’s level up the light, the dark is fading
We stick together, keep the message amplified

Oh baby it’s cold outside
Is this being free?
They just want us
In our seats
Oh baby lost at sea
Is this being free?
Oh the money supreme
Soon obsolete

Aw honey know it seems so long
The road that lays
Ahead of us but we must walk
To better days
Oh undivided now we’re strong
Hearts ablaze
And we won’t stop
Until the makers fall from grace

Oh baby it’s cold outside
Is this being free?
They just want us
In our seats
Oh baby lost at sea
Is this being free?
Oh the money supreme
Soon obsolete
