It took a billion years to reach a technological revolution
to kill, to maim, destroy, enslave, judge ourselves on top of evolution
We fly, go to space, change the face of our earthly home
conquer nations build an Egypt, Babylon or Rome
We overcome illness, split the atom and with nuclear power light the night,
while among ourselves we still steal, betray, lie, and fight,
breaking hearts, abuse young and old, and our fetus\' abort
spend millions on vanity, to the disadvantaged give no support
Greed, envy, hate, and discrimination
form the basis of our so called civilization
We preach love, charity, forgiveness, equality
while we watch rape and murder on the screen of our technology
The themes of our movies are violence and vengeance
what happened to mercy, unity, and transcendence?
Will it take another billion years of evolution
for our specices to have a true social revolution?
