We have been abusing the Earth
For longer than we can remember
We keep on taking and taking
Without giving something in return
She has shown us her discomfort
But we’ve ignored all the signs
She cried like a child
In a corner, away from her bully
While we laughed
Not realizing the damages we’ve caused
The pollutants have blurred our visions
We no longer can see clearly
But Earth has had enough!
For Earth is shouting now!
Screaming and burning
Snowing like never snowed before!
Earth is crying for help
But our ears are deaf
Earth is telling us loud and clear
That things are messy
Yet here we are
Causing more damage to her
Earth is bleeding
And we’re dancing on the wounds
Earth is sobbing
Not because she is in pain
But because we, the inhabitants,
Are ungrateful creatures
Mother nature is emotionally drained
And no leader takes action to fix that
Instead, they let big corporations
Pull out oxygen generators from the ground
They call it construction projects
While destroying our main home
To make some extra cash
To spend in a future that may not exist
I want to apologize to you Earth
To the planet that’s given us life
But apology can’t stop the bleeding
The bleeding our kind has caused
