Planet,
for every things need
but we don’t give a damn, if we can profit from greed,
there will come a time when it’s left on it’s knees,
as extinction prevails,
running man,
trees fawning for leaves.
but those who can choose, choose not to believe.
Damn - we don’t really give a damn,
No - we really do not as a species called man
war
what is it really good for,
any lyrical pro to encapsulate more?
be you country, religion or tribe,
you have to remember those faces,
their eyes,
as we are sentient beings and this shit is called crime.
so there’s your conciseness to ask,
so fucking ask why.
Damn - we don’t really give a damn,
No - we don’t really give a damn do we?
You
what is there to achieve to help us all through?
concivable niceness to our fellow man is taught,
from mosque to church in the light of God,
but the reality is,
if it’s them or you,
we’ll all bare arms and build a wall too,
not stopping to help as thinking of self ain’t two,
their colour is different so they ain’t part of the crew,
if it ain’t our kids then death, that ain’t true,
pretend to care as you follow the news,
20 pence to charity when you buy a new phone,
typing ‘piece’ not ‘peace’ on amazon
remember your differences as the thing to focus on,
global profiteering as the majority slum,
wondering close to death thinking what the fuck have I done.
