Cull the earth
For all it's worth
Diamonds and pearls
Silver and gold

Plunder the seas
Destroy the trees
The food we eat
The air we breathe

Starve the children
For no good reason
Such is treason
Betray them
Betray ourselves

The earth is burning
Tossing turning
Melting gurgling
Extreme events

Mother Nature won't repent
Until we do

Recognized
