EXTINCTION

Man was given the Earth to live with nature in perfect harmony

To cohabitate this planet in mutual symmetry.

 

But from the beginning man exploited this gift and slowly broke Earth’s heart

Forgetting in the scheme of things he played but one small part.

 

He abused the forest, the skies, and the oceans then refused to help them mend.

Leaving the Earth to wonder if the abuse would ever end.

 

You see man made the mistake of thinking it is he, not the Earth that’s great

And he never realized his crime before it was too late.

 

Yes man came to the Earth so he and nature could forevermore be linked

 

And today the forests are back, the sky is clear and it is man who is extinct.
