Divine Light Orchestra - Legacy Lyrics

Our tiny little planet
Is dying
It ails from greed and power
We're lying
Pretending it's not happening
Denying
Our children and their children
Complying

But they're rising up with a powerful voice
Pointing out the fact
The tipping point leaves us no choice
It's past the time to act
'What on Earth will you leave for us'
'We're struggling to see'
'Beyond pollution death and dust'
'What is, what is your legacy'

The governments
Dictating
The powerful
Misstating
Corruption rules
Predating
Apathy abounds
Frustrating

So the young ones speak with a powerful voice
Pointing out the fact
The tipping point leaves us no choice
It's past the time to act
'What on Earth will you leave for us'
'We're struggling to see'
'Beyond pollution death and dust'
'What is, what is your legacy'

The time for talk
Is well past
Our trashed up lives
Consume us
And what we leave
Behind us
Forever on and on and on
Defines us

And the young ones look for action now
They hold all the power
The tipping point is looming large
It's now the midnight hour
'What on Earth will you leave for us'
'We're struggling to see'
'Beyond pollution death and dust'
'What is, what is your legacy'

And the young ones look for action now
They hold all the power
The tipping point is looming large
It's now the midnight hour
'What on Earth will you leave for us'
'We're struggling to see'
'Beyond pollution death and dust'
'What is, what is your legacy'
