Earth

The earth is the only thing helping us to continue to naturally survive Yet we keep on developing it and say life will get better over time When are we just going to learn to live with earth so nature can naturally thrive Every time a tree gets cut down or a animal shot I can hear the earth cry We are the only species that kills out of context and then still have the audacity to say we are wise Open up your eyes Look at all the destruction we are feeding as it continues to rise We have all played a part because we are waiting for some sort of prize Then being fed like vultures, invisible drug with endless supply But when the water drys And all the trees have died And all the animals have said their goodbyes We will have no one, NO ONE to blame but ourselves, look at your own monster in the mirror with your own two eyes If you have the abilty to see, reflect and analyze Oh wait, lets get a close up so we can advertise And put it on the TV, so we can continue to buy
