 |  That nature falls to ruin and rubble, Because we drain it thoughtlessly, Allowing it to crumble? That children go astray, Because we did not take the time, To show them the proper way? That evil's strong and bold, When we can't see any goodness, And we let our hearts grow cold? Racism thrives, my friend, When we cannot see the person, Just the colour of his skin? That friendships die and fade, When we forget the reasons, Why they first were made? Our world has been polluted, When we allow our industries, To strip it and permute it? There's so much grief and sorrow, That we don't even seem to care, What will take place tomorrow? We see no value in our brothers, And we hold ourselves too far above, The many needs of others? Our world is like it is, When all we do is grumble, And no action do we give? We wait in fear of Judgement Day, When we do the things we do, Then forget the way to pray?    |
