We live in denial
We live for materialistic needs
We take and take
We put nothing back
No nurturing
Just exploiting
In the name of greed
Fed by market forces
We desire much more than we need
We worry more about property prices
Then we worry about our earth
We take it for granted
Like everything with worth
We desire shiny sparkly things
Like magpies and it may be a cause for mirth
If it isn’t so important to understand the truth
The future is in doing more to heal life, earth and societies hurt
Which have be caused by a lack of caring
Caused by becoming less compassionate
That’s why we still have people living on the streets who are homeless
All people worry about is the illusory ideals
The fake stuff the media roles out with so much appeal
If climate change is not real to you
But materialist greed is
I can’t wait to see you eating money
In order just to survive and exist
After you’ve cut down the last tree
And destroyed the last of the forests
Polluted and expended all natural resources
In order to get rich.
