What One May Say

self explanatory

 

Our beautiful planet, a place we call home but for how much longer?

Wars and rumors of wars, mankind raping our home, of all natural resources

Tsunamis, hurricanes, tornadoes, it seems from these things we can't deter

Seems too late now leaders want to find of action, another coarse.

 

Starvation, disease, plague, look around, don't you see it too?

We are at the place the polar ice caps, in a while, no longer will they be

I think people are too late in any coarse of action they would try and do

Oil, the essence of life for most, to expensive to buy, in the end will be out of our reach, it doesn't take a genius  for some one to see.

 

Earthquakes, wildfires, floods, are we really nearing what is called the end of days?

Are we the generation that has been chosen, to witness this horrific thing?

Our very future hangs in limbo, and it seems all world leaders just want to play

I can't help but wonder exactly what the future to us may bring,

 

Brother against brother, over religion, what's the big deal, aren't we all talking about the same God?

It just doesn't make sense, the same God, or higher power, doesn't that seal our fate as brothers?

The Earth our home, we have ravaged her to the place, we had a lesson to learn, so we had a free hand in using the natural resources, we turn away looking like some sort of fool under the watchful eye of God

God gives us the freedom of choice, looks like we have chose to destroy our home or each other.

 

Crime runs rampant, children abducted, raped, or killed, what happened to the obligation to our children?

Things are happening now, more so than they ever have before

Soon no one will be left, no one left for the Earth to defend

But we just sit back and wait, like we are just waiting on more.

 

The four horsemen of the apocalypse, I am convinced they have the been unleashed, and now they freely ride

We knew long ago the devastation of our actions, and what it might cause, but in our arrogance we just look away

Too little, too late, seems we will take devastation and destruction, as our bride

Too much time has passed, I think our time is short, regardless of what any one may say.
