[Intro]
No time to waste, the clock is ticking fast
Is it too late to change the climate's cast?
[Verse 1]
The sun is scorching, ice caps melt away
The polar bear's home crumbles day by day
Sea levels rise, a threatening tide
Floods surge forth, where can we hide?
[Verse 2]
Trees are ablaze, ashes fill the air
Homes turn to dust, a burden hard to bear
Dreams consumed, rising with the smoke
Wildfires rage, a devastating stroke
[Verse 3]
Ocean's fevered breath, hurricans rages
Landscapes, cities, swallowed by the waves
The storm wind screams, our time is running low
The hurricane comes and we have to go
[Bridge]
The alarm bells ring, a desperate plea
We must change our thinking, set our planet free
No time to lose, the future's on the line
Or soon there'll be no Earth, no place to shine
[Chorus]
This Earth, a gift, we've borrowed for a while
Nature's bounty, we've treated with such guile
Now the sun burns fierce, a scorching, angry eye
Nature will reclaim, and leave us high and dry
[Verse 4]
Politicians debate the price we pay,
While carbon emissions rise day by day.
They argue and stall, with treaties ignored,
While the planet cries out, to be restored.
[Verse 5]
But people rise, with voices strong and clear,
Demanding change, dispelling all fear.
A tree that grows on burned soil,
Represents hope, and ends the spoil.
[Bridge]
The alarm bells ring, a desperate plea
We must change our thinking, set our planet free
No time to lose, the future's on the line
Or soon there'll be no Earth, no place to shine
[Chorus]
This Earth, a gift, we've borrowed for a while
Nature's bounty, we've treated with such guile
Now the sun burns fierce, a scorching, angry eye
Nature will reclaim, and leave us high and dry
[Outro]
