Crying Earth

………

What about sunrise? What about rain?
What about all the things that you said we were to gain?
What about killing fields? Is there a time?
What about all the things that you said was yours and mine?

Did you ever stop to notice
This crying earth, these weeping shores?

What have we done to the world? Look what we’ve done
What about all the peace, that you pledged your only son?
What about flowering fields? Is there a time?
What about all the dreams that you said was yours and mine?

Did you ever stop to notice
All the children dead from war?
Did you ever stop to notice
This crying earth, these weeping shores?

I used to dream
I used to glance beyond the stars
Now I don’t know where we are
Although I know, we’ve drifted far

Hey! What about yesterday?
What about the seas?
The heavens are falling down
I can’t even breathe

What about everything
I have given you?
What about nature’s worth?
It’s our planet’s womb

What about animals?
We’ve turned kingdoms to dust
What about elephants?
Have we lost their trust?

What about crying whales?
We’re ravaging the seas
What about forest trails?
Burnt despite our pleas

What about the holy land?
Torn apart by creed
What about the common man?
Can’t we set him free?

What about children dying?
Can’t you hear them cry?
Where did we go wrong?
Someone tell me why???

This was the famous Earth song written and sung by the greatest music legend Michael Jackson. We never listened to the people who envisaged this very long ago. Today we are witnessing devastation all over the world, which was purely man made.

We are the culprits who devastated our own mother earth,
We have become victims for own deeds.
