They say the world was about survival initially
And our ancestors were hunters.
They think that they’ve come a long way now,
By inventing machines to increase their comfort
But little did they know that by doing so,
They provoked the nature’s anger.

They uprooted trees for their own needs,
And stole the sheep’s wool.
They walk the earth as if they own it-
With nothing but greedy eyes and a selfish soul.

They talk about humanity!
When it’s the trait they lack the most.
They had set out to start a new world,
But the idea turned out to be catastrophic as a whole.
