Eruption
I don’t wish to be doom and gloom
But I can’t help but think soon
This whole earth is about to erupt
In response to our destructive ways
And we can talk about heading off to space
But there is no planet B you see
There is no point in spreading like a disease
We need to learn to change our ways
Learn how to nurture and appreciate
Focus on how to navigate the natural disasters
Spend money on this instead of wars
Learn to unite to work to solve the problems as one race together
Combining minds and ideas
Never having to live in constant fear
We can evolve and take our place as a more peaceful race
That understands priorities and puts them in first place
Instead of letting government and corporate greed
Dominate humanities needs
And understand the balance needed for our ecology
Or we can all just sit back watching
Believing it’s inevitable that our earth is surely going to erupt
And simply explode and then implodes
And leaves us in a state of extinction.
