Global warming causes climate change;
that's why our weather's been acting strange.
Pollution and deforestation
will affect every single nation.
Our planet is getting too crowded,
folks are scared, and their judgment's clouded.
Xenophobia is on the rise;
people harbor hatred in their eyes.
Everyone, it seems, is filled with rage;
we're behaving like rats in a cage.
Passive-aggressive is the new fad,
videotaping Karens feels rad.
Free speech has morphed into spuing hate
and preaching violence; as of late.
And yet, I have not abandoned hope;
history's shown, we'll find ways to cope.
We are the masters of our domain,
given free will; we are used to pain.
But I pray democracy survives
intact outside library archives.
We may well wish we had it someday,
to realize; we gave it away.
