a drop in the ocean

a speck in the sand

just 3 percent

is all that in our hands

its not enough for everybody

theres billions to feed

and not just humans

but every single kind of breed

a drop in the ocean

a speck in the sand

if we don't act now

we might never save this land

it's the only one we've got

atleast for now, that is

one day we'll space travel

when a new journey begins

a drop in the ocean

a speck in the sand

how insignificant we are

is something we might never understand

scarcity of warmth

and love not given

survival of the fittest

that's how society is driven

a drop in the ocean

a speck in the sand

i will always adore this world

even when you can't
