t finally happened. The end of the world.
Well, take my hand.
Join me, as we enter the next era of humanity...
I not gonna pretend it's gonna have as many comforts
It's gonna take some heart, gonna take some guts
We've gotta learn from the mistakes we made
As humanity's errors begin to pale and fade
We've been granted a reprieve
No time to sit and grieve
Time to earn our stay
Before we're sent on our way
No longer must we assume our place on this Earth is given
Set aside the frivolities friend, it's time to get livin'!
Take the good we've learnt - about physique and diet
While letting our knowledge of weaponry grow quiet
We were the great toolmakers
Now those same tools would break us
We must care how talents will flower
With our knowledge comes our power
There will be missteps - we may stutter and fall
Even through this, we're still human after all
But did it really take a new Earth to realise?
How to see this planet through different eyes.
