The Legacy of Man

When the oil wells are depleted
And the oceans laid to waste
Creatures no longer
Roam the sea

We wage war against nature
We're destroying it to live
Mother earth is raped
Again and again

We no longer have compassion
All the misery we create
As we witness evil
Our feelings turning numb
We get used to killing,
War and genocide
We need to change our ways
Before it's too late

As the world around us crumble
Another species go extinct
We never stop to wonder
If we'll be next

The warheads are flying
As we fight over the remains
Of the burning rubble
That we once called home

We no longer have compassion
All the misery we create
As we witness evil
Our feelings turning numb
We get used to killing,
War and genocide
We need to change our ways
Before it's too late

When the levees break
The water decimate
You know it is too late
When nature retaliate

Megastorms rage
A storm we did create
You know it is too late
When nature retaliate

Disinformation - Ignore reality
Radicalisation - Drawn to the extreme
Overpopulation - Generation doomed from birth
Total devastation - Leave a broken earth

What have we done?
What have we become?
The legacy of man
The legacy of man
