[Intro]
\nHow is it?
\n(Hitting you?)
\nFeel the pressure
\n(Coming through!)<\/p>\n

From the streets
\n(To the shore)
\nHit with energy
\n(… more, more, more!)<\/p>\n

[Verse 1]
\nNew Jersey streets beneath the tide
\nCarolina floods spreading wide
\nFlorida’s waters, California’s rain
\nNew York to New Mexico feel the strain<\/p>\n

El Paso sees the waters rise
\nWhile homes and highways pay the price
\nFrom Ciudad Ju\u00e1rez to Santiago’s ground
\nThe floodwaters keep coming round<\/p>\n

Ibiza, Nepal, the story grows
\nMudslides move and the river flows
\nDifferent places, the same old risk
\nHow much more can humans fix?<\/p>\n

[Refrain]
\nIncreasing the risks
\n(There’s no care there)
\nFeel as justice frisks
\n(Expose the cross we bear)<\/p>\n

How is it
\n(Hitting you)
\nLike a fan and shhh… (It!)
\n(Now whatcha gonna do?)<\/p>\n

[Verse 2]
\nRising seas push farther inland
\nWater takes what we thought would stand
\nA flooded home, a ruined floor
\nThe bills keep coming through the door<\/p>\n

Insurance climbs, watch coverage shrink
\nThe family budget’s on the brink
\nIt’s not just rain, it’s not just heat
\nIt’s what’s happening beneath your feet<\/p>\n

[Refrain]
\nIncreasing the risks
\n(There’s no care there)
\nFeel as justice frisks
\n(Expose the cross we bear)<\/p>\n

How is it
\n(Hitting you)
\nLike a fan and shhh… (It!)
\n(Now whatcha gonna do?)<\/p>\n

Your home!
\n(Your street!)
\nYour prone!
\n(Your receipts!)<\/p>\n

More moisture!
\n(More exposure!)
\n… that’s for sure<\/p>\n

More risk!
\n(More lost)
\n.. who bears the costs?<\/p>\n

[Final Refrain]
\nIncreasing the risks
\n(There’s no care there)
\nFeel as justice frisks
\n(Expose the cross we bear)<\/p>\n

How is it
\n(Hitting you)
\nLike a fan and shhh… (It!)
\n(Now whatcha gonna do?)<\/p>\n

Increasing the risks
\n(The warning’s clear)
\nFrom faraway floods
\n(To those we hold dear)<\/p>\n

How is it
\n(Hitting you?)
\nThe science is real
\n(The costs are, too!)<\/p>\n

[Outro]
\nYour home…
\n(Your future…)
\nYour town…
\n(Your insurance…)
\nClimate energy…
\n(It’s hitting you!)
\nIncreasing the risks…
\n(Now whatcha gonna do?)<\/p>\n

About the Song
\nHOW IS CLIMATE ENERGY HITTING YOU? \ud83c\udf0e\ud83c\udf0a
\nEXTREME FLOODING IS HITTING COMMUNITIES WORLDWIDE.<\/p>\n

The latter part of 2026 has brought devastating flooding, coastal inundation, flash floods, and mudslides across multiple continents.<\/p>\n

UNITED STATES: New Jersey, North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, California, New York, New Mexico, and El Paso, Texas.<\/p>\n

\ud83c\udf0e WORLDWIDE: Ciudad Ju\u00e1rez, Mexico \u2022 Santiago, Chile \u2022 Ibiza, Spain \u2022 Nepal.<\/p>\n

From flooded coastal streets and submerged highways to record river crests and destructive mudslides, the consequences reach far beyond rising temperatures.<\/p>\n

CLIMATE WARMING \u2192 ATMOSPHERIC MOISTURE + RISING SEAS \u2192 FLOODING \u2192 PROPERTY DAMAGE + ECONOMIC LOSSES<\/p>\n

The oceans absorb more than 90% of the excess heat accumulating in the climate system. That energy influences ocean levels, atmospheric moisture, and weather patterns, increasing the risks communities face.<\/p>\n

This is about more than extreme weather. It\u2019s about your home, your community, your insurance costs, and your financial future.<\/p>\n

THE CLIMATE CRISIS ISN\u2019T JUST ABOUT TEMPERATURE. IT\u2019S ABOUT WHAT CLIMATE ENERGY DOES TO YOUR WORLD.<\/p>\n
