Retaliation Day
Retaliation Day
Mother Nature’s hurting
She’s crying, feel the rain?
She’s angry, we’ve abused her
For our own selfish gain.
The world and all its treasures
Are not for us to own.
When will we remember,
To leave her work alone?
Every time we falter
Somewhere people die
This we cannot alter
She’ll match us eye for eye.
Every time we raid the earth
There is a price to pay
How much we will discover
On Retaliation Day.
