[Hook]

All that's left is ashes, where there once were trees

All that's left is waste, thrown into our seas

All that's left is hatred, grown from our jealousy

All that determines our destiny, physically and mentally


[Verse 1]

Don't leave it up to others, work together as brothers

Bit by bit seems so little, when so many seem noncommittal

Salvation is an insurmountable task, but many will help

You just have to ask

Join forces, working hard each day, and progress will dismay

The doubters try to sway what's right

They lack the spirit to join the fight

Stay straight and strong, weigh every act

Your message must convey

This world is ours to use awhile, returning it someday

For generations yet to come, our legacy in fact

Is more than just in taking, but always giving back

Not hard at all when habits form, it soon becomes the norm


[Hook]

All that's left is ashes, where there once were trees

All that's left is waste, thrown into our seas

All that's left is hatred, grown from our jealousy

All that determines our destiny, physically and mentally


[Verse 2]

Caring is a state of mind, driven by the wind

Influenced by all others, choosing just your druthers

Evaluate the outcome, its patron you will become

Peace and satisfaction, reflecting just a fraction

Of the standard you have set

Celebrating achievements already met

Leading by example, elevates not tramples

Ambitions thought impossible by masses, or slowed by impasses

Become clear and attainable, when creativity is sustainable

Encouragement is the key, to success that will always be

Follow your passion and your world will never be ashen


[Hook]

All that's left is ashes, where there once were trees

All that's left is waste, thrown into our seas

All that's left is hatred, grown from our jealousy

All that determines our destiny, physically and mentally
