The warriors call
can be heard by us all
is the way to achieve
if we only believe
what we feel in our soul
about all this control
about financial gain
from the bloody insane
who see money and banks
and possibly tanks
but just do not see
countryside forests and fields
only they say what the fracking pad
yields
it matters not to them
that you live or die
that your community
clearly might cry
at the loss of the shared
environment No!
all they can see
is a great place to go
and drill for the shale
that was lost and now found
to ruin and tear up
the wonderful ground
to pull up the treasure
and cast it away
and leave the destruction
for others to pay
fracking is obvious
fracking is sad
fracking is done by only
the mad
who care nothing for environments
communities, all they
care abut really at the end
of the day
is their shared inheritance
stored in some vault
as to the reason
I dont know whose fault
it is, or it was, or it might be
but, I
will fight for the countryside
till the day, I die
