The Cruel shall Rule (Continued)
Chapter 8
Is it because of some natural thing we have
Is it because we are more powerful, more sleek, more agile
No it is because humans are cruel
We take what we want from this land that birthed us
We leave nothing behind for the earth to say
What they have done is good for us
Instead we are savage taking quickly before mother Earth
Can fight back and reclaim her loss
We also are the most intelligent, yet how do we use this
We start wars, create slaves, and plan how to stay powerful
What would happen if humans were gone
Would the world cease to exist
Would all life say
Woe now is the day how can we live now that they are gone
No instead they will continue their life
Balance will be restored in our world
Prey will once again be hunted naturally
Predators will not be killed off by thousands
The Earth recycles what has happened to it
After many rounds of it humanity and all of it's products
Will be cleaned away from it's history
Yet, why are we still here then
If mother nature rejects us and we in turn torture it's children
Why were me made to stay on this Earth
Is it because we are more powerful, more sleek, more agile
No it is because humans are cruel
We take what we want from this land that birthed us
We leave nothing behind for the earth to say
What they have done is good for us
Instead we are savage taking quickly before mother Earth
Can fight back and reclaim her loss
We also are the most intelligent, yet how do we use this
We start wars, create slaves, and plan how to stay powerful
What would happen if humans were gone
Would the world cease to exist
Would all life say
Woe now is the day how can we live now that they are gone
No instead they will continue their life
Balance will be restored in our world
Prey will once again be hunted naturally
Predators will not be killed off by thousands
The Earth recycles what has happened to it
After many rounds of it humanity and all of it's products
Will be cleaned away from it's history
Yet, why are we still here then
If mother nature rejects us and we in turn torture it's children
Why were me made to stay on this Earth
