Writing On The Wall

(Intro) Recently I've been thinking of you My great-grandchild How insane it became to explain what we're going through And these days my mind can run wild So I thought it would better if I wrote it in a letter to you Dear great-grand kids I wanna try to explain what we did to your planet And damn it, I know it's hard to understand it But the fact is, we failed to take action and Acted like manic generational bandits And I'm sure you gotta couple of questions like What were you thinking and what was your intention But, sadly this message is just a confession about How we failеd the test and nevеr learned our damn lesson You know your ancestors worked in the coal mine Never havin' money, never had time Never see the sun, poisoning the land with the fumble Mostly die from black lung, just to provide for they young and Now everybody thinkin' that we doing all the best that we can We, do it for our families Never understanding what we did (You can't starve your grand-children, just to feed your kids)
