So now we see the fire and feel
the rain,
we watch our people drown and
children burn,
yet all these climate warnings
seem in vain,
I wonder what it takes for men
to learn.
They tell us there’s no need to
take a stand,
it’s simply Mother Nature and
her ways,
despite the rising tides and
barren land,
and signs that we are near the
end of days.
The prophecy was written long
ago,
that fire would rain on Earth
and all will die,
but this is not some sacred
Holy glow –
it’s sunlight through our thin
polluted sky.
The leaders of the world refuse
to heed,
no time to ponder over future’s
fate,
an ever-growing problem – like
their greed,
they sit and watch the problems
escalate.
We’ll kill our planet long
before its time,
we need some action now – that
much is plain,
don’t leave your children
victims of this crime,
stand up – and stop the fire
and the rain.
