Right it

Straight talk

The world is crumbling
But no one’s doing
Anything except keep wasting and being excessive
Ordering too much and throwing away thoughtlessly
Piles of possessions hoarded, left sitting there rotting
Gorging competing who can eat most,
bloated tummies
Hearing the news but getting back to latest gossip
Never bothering to think and change your bad habits
Forest fires are far away won’t happen to me

And the truth is
World leaders are acting like children
Making agreements but never lived up to them
Developed countries should bear the burden
Stop pushing the blame and start taking real action

Facts are clear but you won’t listen
Ignoring the poor who suffer
We will keep screaming the consequences

Lacking basic sense
The world’s in a mess
Cos you’d do anything to ensure you’re popular
And you prioritise your exclusive enjoyment
Centred on your own interest when you are meant to serve

And the truth is
You’ve let down and abused your power
Big position but you’ve let the world worsen
Trying to get away with pretty words
You’re an imposter, you will get what you deserve

We see right through your excuses
Your power won’t silence us
We will keep screaming till you take action

Right it

I see nature crying tears of blood that scar this precious earth
And I will stop at nothing till people notice this is a crisis

Instead of just buying let us set firm limits
Don’t be greedy, let’s start saving
Look beyond your own comfort at earth’s pressing needs
Let us all start reducing our spending

If we all start acting the impact will be big
So start changing your habits
Don’t just watch the news and be apathetic
It concerns you and me
Every living being should be treated kindly
Right now they’re suffering
We’ve destroyed the balance with our greed
It’s up to us to right it

Our worth is defined by what we leave behind
Nature’s beauty should never cease
Men is only as good as how he treats all life
We are all humble before the universe
