Step Lightly
(专辑: Love Will Find A Way - 2015)
I'm choking there's no air to breathe, all these chemicals are poisoning me I
feel like I
ain't got no space, I
got to get out of this place 'Cause everybody's moving to fast, all I
want to do is relax I
don't want no heart attack, don't wanna work 'til I
break my back no I
don't wanna see no more construction, to me it looks just like destruction Just want to protect Her and all She's done, She has provided for everyone so Step lightly, you are trodding on sacred ground Step lightly, there is beauty to be found, look all around Step lightly, for you don't wanna leave a
scar Step lightly, or for your children this will be no more The
buildings just keep getting taller, open spaces dem a
getting smaller They're building more universities, and destroying diversity But where will all the
little animals run, to find shelter from the
burning sun If we let them cut down all the
trees, and spread their industrial disease Have they heard the
ocean so deep, or witnessed the
waterfalls weep Do you think that they could be so blind, to bring the
end of humankind Oh Mama, I
see that You're bleeding Oh Mama, I
feel Your pain in my soul Mama I
will do my best to teach them Mama not to hurt You so I
see them use You, see every day how they abuse You Oh Lord how they break You, see every day how they rape You Step lightly, you are trodding on sacred ground Step lightly, there is beauty to be found, look all around Step lightly, for you don't wanna leave a
scar Step lightly, or for your children this will be no more They're cutting down the
forests, filling up the
landfills Blackening the
skyline, choking out the
sun 'Til there's nothing left but garbage, steel, concrete and sorrow People this doesn't have to be our tomorrow If you listen closely, you will hear Her crying Do you even care that She is slowly dying We got to make a
change now, if not for yourself then do it for your children Who can deny that things have been getting so strange around here And who can deny that it's been getting harder and harder to breathe And who can deny that the
species have been disappearing by the
dozens, daily And who can deny that it's been getting hotter and colder and hotter and colder every year They're sucking the
blood of the
Earth They're scratching at the
heart of Mama Earth They're fracturing the
body of Mama Earth They're sucking the
blood of the
Earth And we all play a
part in their plan We all play a
part, overstand We all let them lead us by the
hand And watch as they destroy our homeland, our Motherland And who will stand with me and fight
