Starving Mother
Starving mother
She (nature) is ever young
And beautiful
She (nature) gave' without a price
To pay
Upon her arms
Lies the secret of life
Starving mother
The earth has a daughter
She (nature) is the life of life
Yet she starve for her due
As our destruction now
Curse her bleed in places
Starving mother
The killing
The Hating
The isolation
As more evil we do
Make her restless
The love she gave
We don't adore
The life she bear
We don't care
starving mother
Civilised we say we are
Wars yet we can't stop
Educated we call ourselves
Yet love we lack among us
Our Religion not close
Yet to draw us closer to humanity
Once it was a peaceful planet
Not now any more
we let her (nature) aside
our ignorance curse us blind
Not to see our Mother Nature
So we are here
Yet on her arms
Lies the life we share
For this desire of ours
Is not inline with her (nature)
Not now so I wonder if it may
Tomorrow
Starving mother
Miles connect to miles makes
A journey and destination
The miles we are now
Is far ahead to connect us to
Nature
The choice of our journey
Is off track
The destination cures the earth
To shake while we let
Her (nature) empty
With our ignorance to our desire
The world is rule with a force
That forbid nature
Here it curse a mysteries
For we don't care
So our ignorance curse a
starving mother
