Man We Created

The history of our past
Has led us to this day
To think of all the people,
That brought us here today
Great sights stand high with posture
Buildings lurk the streets
But where were we before
The construction was so deep
Creatures who could roam
And had a pleasant home
Days were bright and wishful
No smoke took it grey
Crystal waters blue as day
No oil spilled away.
To think of all the people,
That took this all away.
And now the clouds stand over
Dark and out of place
Waiting for a storm to brew away the hate
And where were we before
The construction was so deep
Creatures who could roam
And had a pleasant home
Days were bright and wishful
No smoke took it grey
Crystal waters blue as day
No oil spilled away.
To think of all the people,
That took this all away.
