The reign of man is obsolete
We think we rule this planet
We think we are in charge
We think that we are free
To use the animals
To use the air
To use the earth
To use this planet
To use each other
To get ahead
Synthesizing chemicals
Synthesizing drugs
Synthesizing people
Synthesizing animals
Even changing the very nature
Of nature itself
But we aren't in control
As much as we think we are
The more we try and control nature
And the more we try and control each other
The more we will realize
That we shouldn't be trying to control
Or trying to change
Or trying to manipulate nature
Or even other people
Its amazing
We have more than what we need
To provide for ourselves
Provide for our mother
To provide for this planet
If we were to actually live in harmony
Living with the animals and the planet and each other
Instead of trying to control and to manipulate and to alter and change
