The environment fades
The industrial plague
The monetary rage-
That keeps our society stagnant.

The plastic facade
Of the world as we know it
Blinding dollar signs, tunnel vision
Leaving nothing but paper for the future.

Stop! Dont speak.
Their way is the only way
Activism shunned
Beating down the nonconformity.

Who are we against today?
Who is to blame?
For this monotonous social reckoning
For the people that dont follow in your tracks.

Brothers, sisters, take a step back
Look at what weve all created.
A plume of smog shrouding
A planet better off without us.

Your views outdated,
Uninformed opinions taken as gospel
Weight of words make the sheep heel
Against the betterment of mother nature.

Society is crumbling
Yet your priority is affluence
The land rots and air poisoned
Your heart blackening.
