We come from a turbulent past To an info-age moving way to fast The fate of these lands Is now placed in our hands
Will we bring destruction to an end Will we have the power to mend Save this fragile dreamland Wash away our footprints in the sand
Global warming is causing weather changes right before our eyes But we still blacken our skies Sunrays take less time to burn our faces But we still destroy our rain forests and just leave empty spaces
The men spill out of the factories everywhere Punching their time clocks basically unaware Don?t realize what's happening to the big picture The massive devastation of the atmospheric mixture
Every day go through their daily motions Waiting it out for measly promotions Distant stares and silent prayers Monday to Friday . . . say goodbye
Our oceans are slicked with oil spills Our waterways full of toxic waste that kills We build our cities on mountains of pollution Without an environmental solution
We live our lives in search of wealth In the process damage our good health Crime stories are found on every newspaper page People loosing control in an uncertain age
The victims of greed are getting younger In a world that still allows their hunger Our petty problems make us hang down our heads While million's go unfed
Desire unfolds the light of our day But we cannot give in to the subtle decay We must rise above the haze descending Toward mass action mending
We must take control of our actions today or the children of tomorrow will be the one's to pay The new innkeepers shall soon take charge of the next generation?s voyage at large
Trends are patterned and patterns trended But man's damage must be ended!
"As nightfall does not come at once, neither does oppression. In both instances, there is a twilight when everything remains seemingly unchanged. And it is in such twilight that we all must be most aware of change in the air -- however slight -- lest we become unwitting victims of the darkness." --William O Douglas
"When even one Person -- who has done nothing wrong -- is forced by fear to shut his mind and close his mouth, then all People are in peril." -- Harry S. Truman
And I honor the man who is willing to sink half his present repute for the freedom to think, and, when he has thought, be his cause strong or weak, will risk the other half for the freedom to speak." -- James Russell Lowell

"Censorship is contagious, and experience with this culture of regulation teaches that regulatory enthusiasts herald each new medium of communications as another opportunity to spread the disease." --Robert Corn-Revere
