Mother Earth

From the Dawn the beginning of time

Mother Earth she was doing fine

Paradise of the Galaxy

She prepared life for you and me

Mother! your bleeding, Barrels they’re stealing

Drilling your life out I hear you crying

You make the hills and grow the trees 

Fill it with birds’ flowers and bees 

You water down the thirsty need

with Rivers, Lakes, Oceans and Seas.

Now we come to the thiefing time 

Battle across every nation

Who telling truth, who telling lie 

Time to pay close attention

All the one dem we love to hate, 

The one’s with bad reputation, 

Love the one dem we hate to love

‘Fallout from isolation’.

Look at all the War all the greed and all the waste 

Guns and Oil and Terror and struggle everyplace

Why so many suffer alone, I don’t know why,

Got to be the reason I hear, and see Mother Earth Cry

Oh-oh-oh why, My sweet Mother Earth Cry, oh-oh-oh why.

Civilizations come and gone

And our mother she still live on

But this is a first degree

Self annihilation, it’s plain to see 

Mother!  you’re bleeding, Barrel’s they’re stealing

Choking your breathing of air we’re needing,

She make the food, the veggie green

And organisms never seen

And how do we repay her pride

With chemicals and genocide

Now we come to the thiefing time 

Battle across every nation

Who telling truth, who telling lie 

Time to pay close attention

All the one dem we love to hate, 

The one’s with bad reputation 

Love the one dem we hate to love 

Fallout from isolation

Look at all the War and the greed and all the waste

Guns and Oil and Terror and struggle everyplace

Why so many suffer and die, I don’t know why,

Got to be the reason I see, and hear Mother Earth Cry, 

Oh-oh-oh why, I see Mother Earth Cry, oh-oh-oh why,

My sweet Mother Earth Cry oh-oh-oh why.
