The earth was sacred till humans ruled, and peace slowly drained away; Life as we know it is a greedy hell, which grows more day by day; A once green earth of silver womb, caressed by purity; Is now a black thorned ball of doom, raped by poverty;
Evil through the ages sharpens like a grinding axe; Ready to decapitate the whole of human kind; It’s futile to resist the claw of mayhem;
Murder is just a tradition, and war is just a game; Evil leaders of the world put, humanity to shame; Battles for beliefs and land, doesn’t make sense to me; The system is corrupted, and it pleads insanity;
[Tortured Screams Throughout]
A new dawn rises ev’ry morn, and rids the shadows of night; But one day the world may wake to doom, unless we keep up the fight; So come on now, discard your trends, and devote your life to creation; It may not be a new world yet, but it’s certainly inspiration;
