by Chords of Truth

The Earth is fine
it’s been there a long time
Now experts claim
we are crossing a line

Between our lives
and all of future kind
The precise cause
they strain to define

There are the chemicals,
clean water & CO2
But see how far we’ve come
through scientific breakthroughs

We live today
like the kings & queens of past
Yet most complain
until they draw their last breath

Now won't you come and listen to me
I'll show you things
that you never have seen
I talk of ignorance, I talk of greed
Hear my words if you hunger to be free

This begs a question
that you should ask
What is the trustworthy view
through the looking glass

Cause all events
can be seen from different sides
The ones in power
decide how they guide

Factions are trying
to control your thoughts
By planting concepts
in a clean & tidy box

So you should always
look between the f’ing lines
The absolute truth
is hidden by design

Now won't you come and listen to me
I'll show you things
that you never have seen
I talk of ignorance, I talk of greed
Hear my words if you hunger to be free

Volumes have been
inspired in our past
That offer insight
on how to be our best

Yet we choose
to fight among each other
Instead of learning how
to create a bright future

Love is key, and striving to be
A positive part of our society

Change is a constant
no matter the time of year
But higher things are at work
so have no fear

Now won't you come and listen to me
I'll show you things
that you never have seen
I talk of ignorance, I talk of greed
Hear my words if you hunger to be free
