Earth Song Lyrics

What about sunrise
What about rain
What about all the things
That you said we were to gain...
What about killing fields
Is there a time
What about all the things
That you said was yours and mine...
Did you ever stop to notice
All the...

    It is way clear that this song is about what our world in turning into. all of the amazing forests are being destroyed and our relationships with animals arent the same as they used to be. as we all know michael believed strongly in keeping our world safe and living on forever.

    ily michael, your biggest fan ,

    we've lost our connection with animals destroying trees loosing all the magnificent things that god provided us with. But why cant people see its slipping away probably never to return if we don't save it.

    Michael Jackson singing about preserving the nature. Yet we may ask Did he narrow down the amount he flew? etc.

    He is saying; "where are you GOD"? And the theme is that you must look to the earth (hands in the soil), not deities that make supposed promises.

    The video depicts the end times described in the book of Revelations in the bible... Natural disasters destroy the Earth... people of all tongues drop to the ground and start praying... then after this hell on earth is a new birth... a perfect world... The majority of his songs are biblical... Not many people realize that tho... Even in the lyrics he's speaking to God saying what about this what about that... talking about all the promises... He says "what about Abraham"... etc

    This song is about what our world is going to be like if we don't stop the way we are destroying rainforests,polluting,and destroying animals habitats.(Stop it from happening!)
