Too Little Too Late

Been on this earth for a long time now and most would say we've evolved
But as technology advances the old problems haven't been solved
Some how we think we remain morally right but nothing is that pure
Mankind's eyesight is too one tracked and our downfall is coming for sure

But the thing that makes me lose respect in all of humanity
Is the fact that we never learn from out own history
How much longer can the earth sustain itself at this rate
10 billion people in 2 thousand 10, am I the only one who sees our fate
I don't think there is a chance in hell that people will try to turn this around
If they do it will be too little too late while the walls are already crumbling down

You see the problem lies within ourselves
We don't give a fuck about anyone else
Brought up selfish human beings
Stricken by our own disease

We don't see the way that others see
We're not compassionate to what others choose to believe
Threatened by everyone else who's a little bit different than ourselves
This "live for today" ethic has fucked things up

Its self centered, I've had enough
Definitely the most selfish way to live
'cause you take take take and never give
But we will never change
