Verse 1
Existing on a planet in crisis
Absorb the scenes of devastating destruction and damage my iris
Decimate my pupil
The actions of bloodlines that date back to Queen Semiramis or Isis
And Nimrod or Osiris
Global control over thousands of years embedded in media and politics
Senior authorities, a blatant misleading of majorities
Crops of propaganda feeding the colonies
Royalty and monarchies, corporate monopolies
A very frightening realization of prophecies, coming true
And people dont wanna know the truth even when you tell em geeza its right in front of you
Even the people that have sat and taken the knowledge in
Arent seeing the facts and acknowledging
That life is about so much more than a paper chase
A minority effort cant save a race
Chorus
Very few people are listening apparently but ll still stand here and make my plea to humanity
The worlds decaying rapidly, people are cracking on and showing a disgusting amount of apathy
Very few people are listening apparently but ll still stand here and make my plea to humanity
Starting to feel the worlds agony
Thats why these words and sentiments are expressed infallibly
Verse 2
So now Ive set the tone
But would it make any difference if I was saying it muted or through a megaphone?
I think not, cos people are more concerned with consumerism and with the latest mobile telephone
The biggest widescreen, the flashest car on the drive, a proper part time star on the side HA!
More concerned about your appointment with Toni & Guy
Making sure you get your weed, charlie or opium high
As we obliterate reserves of our fossil fuels
Listen to the sample at the end about the concentration of poisons in our air molecules
Were talking dangerous levels like the enrichment of uranium metals
By the Iranian rebels, and the North Koreans
Western civilisation is under threat and Europeans
Wont stand for it, nor will the yanks man
Weve always been the main threat, you dont stand a chance man!
Verse 3
We are the stewards of this planet son
And I for one feel as if its a moral responsibility
To conserve the amazing species of wildlife from every rainforest and coral reef that visibly
Are being savagely destroyed
Perfectly normal to some, in mine and natures eyes illicitly
Physically were killing mother earth and emotionally she cant cope, shes surrounded by misery
Theres some confusion, many idiot people think, the solution, to pollution, is dilution
So all the toxic waste you pump into the ocean and fumes into the atmosphere are justified pollutants
As far as excuses go its nice that, but it doesnt bring back the polar ice cap
Or put a halt to the persistent climate change
A young man speaking in the midst of a dying age
