This World Is Mine

Ignoring our fragile Eco system
has proved costly to mankind
with extreme weather we see now
Remember this world is not just yours
but mine.

To the greedy profiteers 
making money causing people
and animals to suffer and die
you will pay for your crimes
Remember this world
is not just yours but mine.

Polluters of our precious earth
the rivers and seas in our times
Remember this world
is not just yours but mine.

Destruction of our rainforests
leaving indigenous people
and wild animals without a home
how you sicken me
leave them alone.

It's not always the big things
like murder and hate 
that makes this world a colder place
but also the little things
peoples attitudes have changed
and show an unfriendly 
societies face.

We have more than enough food to go around
bit throw so much away
while the people who need it most
starve to death each day.

Society demands perfection
from imperfect humans
TV and the media spread propaganda
that causes brainwashing and spreads fabrications
causing misery and anger.

Where are the positive role models
to feed young peoples minds
not the sexual overt
cant care less so called stars
so prevalent in our times. 

It's such a shame
We spend more on war
than fighting disease and finding
a cure
not in my name.

There is only one answer
and what we see today
was predicted so long ago
God won't put up with this much longer
and will put things right
but when nobody knows.

But until then to the wicked people
stop destroying our earth
you'll soon pay for your crimes
and remember
this world is not just yours
but mine.
