50 Guys / 50 Girls

Woke up this morning, wide eyed to the world,
And the 1st thought that hit me was 50 guys and 50 girls.
100 virtuous souls for Zion’s New seed,
Only because we neglected to take heed
Back in the day when they discovered global warming
And now cities drown because ice caps stop forming.
Massive winds, heavy rain ransacked NO
Made a huge muddy puddle of a city already 6 feet below
Hurricane Katrina damn new killed the whole South,
And all politicians did was run their mouth
About whose fault it was that the poor blacks were still there
And discuss that Kanye said that Bush didn’t care.
1 gaint wave and no warning alarm
Laid waster to poor India people and ruined their farms
All the world just sat back and took a look
Like this was some shit from a fictional story book.
It’s hot outside and we all complain
About sweltering heat and heavy rain
Hot today and cold the day before
All uncomfortable because of what we wore.
We look to weather man like “man, what’s up?’
And what he won’t tell you is that the earth is FUCKED UP
Mother Nature is feed up with all the lil kids
And finally punishing us for all that we did
Smoked up the air and polluted the sea
Thought we could take all we wanted from her for free.
Burn the oil, the gas, and black coal
And now for payment she takes poor souls.

Woke up this morning, before the sun hit my eye
1st thought I had, 50 girls and 50 guys.
100 pure souls for Zion’s 1st breath
Because humanity now mass produces death.
In 2001, 11th day of September,
I sat on my bed and I remember
Thinking they’ve gotten tired of being pushed around
Because now they’ve brought death and destruction on our ground
Several trouble souls took over the air
And told 100 unlucky passengers that they didn’t care
That they had families: children, husbands and wives
And that they would soon take his, theirs and 1000 other lives.
They made an old man’s predictions come all too true
Smoke, fire, and blood on a canvas sky blue.
A war we’re fighting and noone knows why
But everyday more American soldiers will die
For a cause they may, or may not believe in.
Just so W’s friends can count the dividends
Off of Mother Earth’s crude oil vein
But Bush continues to say the same
Old story about they’re there for democracy
And expects us to believe the hypocrisy
We all know it’s the root of all evil
That keeps your mind acting all feeble
To believe that we would be the only ones
With that nuclear sort of gun
Who the fuck cares if they tested a war head?
After the first one is launched, we’ll all be soon dead.
If they fire first and we fire back
The smoke and radiation will turn the sky black
So the sun will cease and comes the acid rain
And we’ll all witness the break down of the food chain
As death and destruction take over the earth
We’ll all wonder was it really worth
The cost of our lives for some petty fight
Over who’s guns bigger and who’s idea is right.

Woke up this morning, 1st thought I gave
Was about 100 lives for the world to save
50 guys/50 girls for Zion’s fresh start
Culturally responsible and versed in the arts
Blessed with the knowledge to start the world anew
To repopulate to planet from just those few
Free from corruption, destruction and deadly disease
Create a near perfect society with near perfect ease
And learn from this worlds constant mistakes
And I hope that the next round we will make
Better choices for our sons and daughters
To prevent more innocent lives from the slaughter
Until that day, we’ll wait for the end
As life after life pays for his father’s sin
And when it’s time for us to start a new world,

I send all my hope with 50 guys and 50 girls.
