Truth to Power

 

I could tell you I was ageless

But I know you see the light

I could tell you I’m immune to everything

But that’s a lie

Dust don’t turn to flowers

Skies don’t disappear

But I’ve seen truth to power

Oh, if you could see me the way I see you

If you could feel me the way I feel you

You’d be a believer (believer)

You’d be a believer (believer)

You’d be a believer (believer)

You’d be a believer (believer)

 

The lyrics are from the perspective of the earth, it talks about global warming and how the earth isn’t something that can last forever if you don’t take care of it. Us humans abuse the earth, we litter, pollute our air and take away the earth’s important resources, such as trees, to build condos, factories etc. We do not realize that our earth is slowly dying from the things we are doing and we should take action immediately as the problem is not going to fix on its own. This music video for this song gives us examples of what we do and how we can take initiative, like recycling, planting trees, etc. We abused the earth by not taking care of it and now we face the downfall which is climate change.
