When fire eats the rain...

The world as we knew it... the world as we know it!

When it was then,

I was not afraid, i could walk in the dark, play alone in my yard

The rain would fall and i would play, 

All my innocence tucked safely inside of me

I felt safe, i imagined the world to be safe

However, i am no longer living then

I am living now

What I knew is nothing like what i know now

Long ago, the rain washed the fire away, not, fire eats the rain

The old forgetting their morals, the young never cultivating any

Murders and violence becoming nothing but a fact that people are no longer shocked about

I see things moving the opposite way, not the way it was supposed to go

Fire ain't afraid of the rain anymore...

Rain is... I don't feel safe anywhere

All i see now is blood shed, famine, wars, children crying for help

Nature slowly dying, our oxygen is slowly becoming a luxury

Sicknesses, earthquakes, tsunami's, natural disasters that no one ever heard about

This is the world now, this is what i know now

The fire becomes stronger eating up the rain that could wash the pain away

Gone is my innocence, gone is my childhood

I have learnt to be an adult way before i needed to

Yes, this is the world now, spinning around in catastrophe

The pain gulps the happiness away

The tears push the smiles away

The greed takes away justice

Indeed, the fire has consumed the rain.
