Carbon Footprint / SmokyP【GUMI English】

"Love eats through me like CFCs through the ozone." · · ─ ·ʚɞ· ─ · · GODDDD i’ve been waiting to release this song since fucking NOVEMBER. I was originally gonna commission someone to do the MV, but honestly they didn’t respond, but they were pretty busy so it’s reasonable honestly. So I took matters into my own hands! I wanted to make KAITO sing the lower harmony, but I currently don’t own him. I also wanted to make Miku sing the higher harmony, but I forgot to do so and lowkey I was too lazy to go back into the V6 editor LMAO Oh yeah, at the little animatic(?) type thing at 2:31, don’t mind how bad it looks. I tried to show what the relationship looked like between the abuser and the singer through an animation meme type shit?? but it kinda sucks LOLLL After the second chorus I kinda got lazy with the visuals LMAOOO But i promise i’m not trying to romanticize abuse No, this isn’t saying all women are abusers. No, this isn’t saying all men aren’t abusers. This isn’t meant to be stereotypical at all. I write these lyrics to help people relate to songs, and to explain what an abusive relatonship looks like as accurately as possible The MV might explain it poorly due to my poor video editing skills, but hopefully none of my words gets twisted · · ─ ·ʚɞ· ─ · · Instrumental: https://youtu.be/kqzOshT_j1g?si=YvV_RULQD4zlHHKc VPR + Stems: SOON SoundCloud Upload: https://on.soundcloud.com/QG0oA7trdgrsjNizdv Bandcamp Upload: https://vocaloquartz.bandcamp.com/track/carbon-footprint Spotify Upload: https://open.spotify.com/album/3auh78kvD9LYxmmvtD56E4?si=vai37LwWQN2NdClyWszp2Q Voicebanks: -GUMI English V3 (Lead vocals, high harmony, mid harmony) -Chris (Lower harmony) Music, lyrics, art, and MV by me Character design by Vinyl · · ─ ·ʚɞ· ─ · · Contact: vocaloquartz@gmail.com (PLEASE only contact me for business inquiries and for the following below.)

Lyrics: I may have left you But you left behind your toxic spores You might have fooled me once But I'm not the person that you cared for You're a selfish person whose 'love' is a hollow curse I did nothing but give you everything I had, now I'm at my worst Inhale, exhale, out with the pain. Scrape out the ashes, call my name You’re not divine, you’re just a disease Get out of me, 'cause I need to breathe The smoke in my lungs is burning out my veins Your words left a burning, residual stain The carbon dioxide that you left here Made me flood this house with my very tears And I thought that I was safe from you But it was too late before I knew That your charred, rotten soul has covered me in ash 'Cause you're nothing but a toxic liar treating me like trash There's nothing left but toxic chemicals I choke on the air filled with toxic gas you controlled One breath from you and I would just meltdown 'Cause you're just toxic waste You're a biohazard It's neither you or me who I fear the most It's your carbon footprint Crushing me like a ghost Inhale, exhale, out with the pain. Scrape out the ashes, call my name You’re not divine, you’re just a disease Get out of me, 'cause I need to breathe The smoke in my lungs is burning out my veins Your words left a burning, residual stain The carbon dioxide that you left here Made me flood this house with my very tears And I thought that I was safe from you But it was too late before I knew That your charred, rotten soul has covered me in ash 'Cause you're nothing but a toxic liar treating me like trash (trash) The smoke in my lungs is thinning as I breathe Your words are a fading, residual stain The carbon dioxide that you left here Is now settling down as the skies grow clear And I thought I was still scared of you But that fear dissolved away when I knew That your charred, rotten soul has been washed off of me 'Cause you're nothing but a toxic liar left in this dark sea
