Years and Years Ago

Years and years ago
Surged man's worst foe

A phoney, deceitful glow
The promise of easy dough
Made him greedily bow
From the future, time to borrow

Own grave went on to burrow
Down he went, too low
In the sky began to sow
Poison and endless woe

Years and years later
At a dark abyss border
Making out the big blunder
With too much to bother

Yet, no time for anger
Hopes aren't that slender
Let's just stand together
The young and the elder

For our home cater 
And save the Life layer
