Preserve our mother earth
PRESERVE OUR MOTHER-EARTH
If we refuse to nurture the gift of nature
We are in danger of crumbling the future
If we fold our hands and watch earth fall
Our hands will suffer the colds of the fall
This is where it hurts – our carelessness
Steer up angers of imminent restlessness
Nature no longer birth disaster
We're the cause & the mother of disaster
We satisfy our greed & fill the space with spoils
Forgetting we all came from the soil
This is where it hurts – the beauty we seek
Lies in our hands but we refuse to see
If mother earth crave for peace
Should we not appreciate her dreams?
Whether or not we’re the cause of her torment
Isn’t man the mourner of her predicaments?
Where it hurts – may be nature’s fault
But how it hurts befits to man’s choice
It’s never too late to pay the price
Together we can fight the course of our plight
Of calamities we’ve suffered in the past
Of scars we’ve endured while we fight
It’s a lesson nature has taught us
An enlightenment to our path & focus
