It's A Global Catastrophe

They say global warming isn't real
And you shouldn't believe in chemtrails
But I swear that's acid rain 
And why does our air smell so strange 
Our water has so many chemicals
It's no longer safe to even drink 
There's so much pollution and the smog covers everything 
If you can't tell for yourself that every year it keeps getting hot as hell
Honestly last winter how much snow do you think actually fell 
I bet we hardly even got an inch on the ground 
I'm just like wow
I can remember as a kid it use to be feet deep
And I know it isn't only me 
How can you not see 
I mean this weather is just about as crazy as it can be 
Record breaking hurricanes 
And tsunamis  that reach like 100 feet 
Flooding inland to places you wouldn't even believe it could reach 
There's no way people are this blind
It's an environmental crisis 
Yet everyone just turns a blind eye 
We gotta stop pretending this isn't happening and take action before we're out of time 
Stop passing off our environmental hazards onto the next guy 
As a matter of fact I can't  even recall the last time i seen a clear sky 
It's no wonder why 
We're facing this situation 
I don't mean to sound like I'm complaining but I'm just thinking it's just amazing 
No one even cares 
I mention global warming and all I get are blank stares
And for our future generations it just ain't fair 
So there 
I've said my peace 
I'm not trying to preach 
And hopefully someone is listening and some of you I've reached
And maybe at least some of these things I say you can learn to 
appreciate
