Staring out across the way
The ocean sparkling brightly
People stand by, watching the waves
This happens day after day
These salt waves evaporate nightly
But is seems as if we live in caves
The salt fills the air, it's safe here
But what about what's clean
Something we can drink
What we need begins to disappear
We can't grow anything green
We are on the brink
Of self destruction
Drought killing our plants
Floods drowning innocents
Our constant rise reproduction
Maybe we should start trusting rain chants
We can fix this though with scientific diligence
Reserving what we have left
Purifying, and making what we don't
We can save ourselves
From our freshwater theft
From the earth, it's not what we bought
Humans need to get off their high shelves
Don't give up and just pursue
Depend on what we've got
And don't pollute
Don't make species die and be blue
It doesn't really take a lot
It's time, together, we put down the boot
