Devouring Resources

Man is alarming devouring all of earth's resources When there's nothing left we will be feasting on our corpses But that would not suprise me that's the way that man is Ignorant to everything with uncaring survival instinct So arrogant and blind to other options we could choose We could be the nurtures not the ones guilty of abuse We could harness so much more that is sustainable But money, greed and corruption Is the scenario on which we repeat When we've continued to polluting all the seas When we have finally cut down the very last tree Will we acknowledge this as our responsibility Or will we look to pass the blame off And be saying this future could not be seen Because if in fact we try to use this as an excuse for what we've done That would simply be obscene and completely wrong!
