Heal the World

How can we say we want to leave a legacy
Every day we take far more resource leaving
A place that our future cannot strive to heal
Living in a world of pollution and no resources

There comes a time in which we must change
Healing must start with us not our childrens
Each day becomes more vital as it is one less

Will we ever face the truth that is before us
Or will we blind ourselves and ignore reality
Remember it in our hands to really act now
Listening is not the same as being active
Do what you know must be done right now
