Our Earth

Our Earth An earth that’s mine and also yours An earth we both do share The path of it our destiny To favour war or prayer Some people choose their own war Against an enemy unseen A fight with drugs or alcohol A war that’s oft obscene Impossible to surrender Trenches ever deeper no way out Never quite reaching the front line Not knowing how it came about Stuck there in a war zone Your fate your own violation Unaware and now dependent Destined for damnation While wars are started all over Whole countries vying for power Man’s duty is to fight them Never knowing when his last hour Whole communities left in destruction Governments ignoring their plight Interested only their own agenda To man never will be contrite Why to our earth this massacre Man hurting its own race Each the same no difference All sharing the same space
