Foreigner
Where did they come from?
Why they came?
They destroyed the forest
They destroyed the lake
Nothing matters in their selfish trade
not water neither land nor even the air
My mother was the one who charised them
My mother was the one who helped them
She didn't know the parasite in them
She didn't know the avaricious in them
They destroyed her in every possible way
They sold out her in every possible way
Now, showing we do care?
They were the ones who brought here hell
Who were those murderers?
They were the foreigner
Who came on earth and started engulfing it
They were the aliens, who didn't care
And now I am scared,
and now I am sad
cause I feel I have become one of them .
