The Enemy
Polarity is the enemy,
constantly tearing us apart.
It is the source of enmity,
thoughts of a mind without any heart.
ALL need a breath, ALL have one heart,
ALL have one death, together not apart.
The pathway to harmony,
if ALL care to take a look,
is respecting all you see,
as if behind the cover of your book.
ALL need a breath, ALL have one heart,
ALL have one death, together not apart.
ALL live, ALL die,
is heartbeat's song,
ALL laugh, ALL cry,
check in and sing along.
ALL need a breath, ALL have one heart,
ALL have one death, together not apart.
Tripling to 7 billion in just 70 years,
a huge challenge to ecology.
Will the resource price end in tears,
if me, me, me, what do you foresee?
ALL need a breath, ALL have one heart,
ALL have one death, together not apart.
