Om - Cry of the Planet lyrics

[Random] You can hear the cries of the planet Even scientists can't understand it We all at a disadvantage, impossible to manage So-called-experts is callin' it a "hoax" Now it's time for the networks to take a new approach Greenhouse gases, natural disasters Unexplained phenomena, time to wake up outta the Mind state, that we can't change things The world is changing How many times we gotta see the same thing? Hurricanes, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions We need more action and much less discussion And less corruption, before we all goners Somebody inform us what the earth's tryin to warn us But we worry 'bout the trivial, superstars, interviews Millionaires drama, people what's gotten into you? Temperature is risin like the CO2 levels It's settled - sooner or later we'll see the true devils But for now.. [Chorus] Listen - you can hear the cries of the planet Uhh, and you can hear the cries of the planet Yeah [Random] Yesterday a young mom threw her baby in the garbage And a bomb exploded right in an Afghani market And who you think the target is? The same one who started this War on a people who didn't even have a part in this Terrorism's mental now but they ain't gotta strike Red, yellow, orange, burnt sienna - it's a lot of hype Politicians spendin' millions to keep they cushy gigs Single moms miss meals just to feed they kids In the land of opportunity, bring your poor, tired And your huddled ma**es - but just not to my community I appreciate your help, in building the house But as soon as it's done, fam, I gotta kick you out That don't even make no sense to me But you can check the history It's written that a man will die for his own iniquity And there'll be a day that we rise But it won't be until we open our eyes and recognize the lies [Chorus] [Random] Protesters with picket signs, object to these wicked times While brothers is kickin lines about cars, gettin dimes Cause they know to get in line, work until quittin time Man stand up and fix ya spine, you outta your frickin mind Put minutes on their phone instead of minutes in their lives We pay the ultimate price, then ask God why The pursuit of gettin more, that's America's credo Legal or illegal, what you less than a zero? And all the drama we got, is wastin time on the clock Came a long way since I used to rhyme on the block Learned if you value the knowledge Then you free your mind to follow it A lot of it is confidence, not what you can get out of it Turn that tell-lie-vision off and dig up a j**el Sharpen your mind, it remains your best tool At your disposal; hopeful and cautious at the same moment Cause I know that everybody faces atonement - now [Chorus] w/ ad libs [Random] I hear it I cry for the planet
