In these troubled times of rearrangement and pain, I feel the pain and anger of the millions of people around the world who want peace and harmony and I can't think of a more fitting song for this emotion - Michael Jackson's Earth Song. .... This is a performance by two singers, a grandfather and a grandson in a heartfelt version: Earth Song What about the sunrise? What about the rain? What about all the things that you said we'd win? What about the fields of death? Is there still time? What about all the things that you said were yours and mine? [Pre-Chorus] Have you ever stopped to notice all the blood that we've shed before? Have you ever stopped to notice this weeping Earth, its weeping shores? [Chorus] Aaaaaaaaaaaaa, Ooooooooo Aaaaaaaaa, Ooooooooo [Verse 2] What have we done to the world? Look what we've done! What about the peace He promised His only son? What about the fields of flowers? Is there still time? What about all the dreams He claimed were yours and mine? [Pre-Chorus] Have you ever stopped to notice All the children killed by war? Have you ever stopped to notice This weeping Earth, its weeping shores? [Chorus] Aaaaaaaaa, Ooooooooo Aaaaaaaaa, Ooooooooo [Bridge] I used to dream. I used to look beyond the stars. I don't know where we are now, though I know we've come a long way. [Verse 3 / Outro – with "What about us?" part] What about yesterday? (What about us?) What about the seas? (What about us?) The skies are falling. (What about us?) I can't even breathe. (What about us?) What about apathy? (What about us?) I need you. (What about us?) What about the value of nature? (What about us?) This is the womb of our planet. (What about us?) What about the animals? What about them? (What about us?) We turned their kingdom into dust. (What about us?) What about the elephants? (What will you say about us?) Have we lost their trust? (What will you say about us?) What will you say about the crying whales? (What will you say about us?) We are ravaging the seas. (What will you say about us?) What will you say about the forest paths, (What will you say about us?) burnt despite our pleas? (What will you say about us?) What will you say about the holy land? (What will you say about us?) Torn by creeds. (What will you say about us?) What will you say about the common man? (What will you say about us?) Can't we set him free? (What will you say about us?) What will you say about the dying children? (What will you say about us?) Can't you hear their cries? (What will you say about us?) Where did we go wrong? Someone tell me why! (What about us?) What about babies? (What about us?) What about...?
A digital fantasy art image depicts a silhouette of a man with white hair and a young person, possibly a child, standing on a sandy beach. They are holding hands and facing the turbulent sea, which features numerous foamy waves crashing. The sky above is dark blue, with a large, dark-grey cloud from which bright, white sun rays emanate, forming a striking halo-like effect. Below this cloud, a huge, glowing orange full moon is partially obscured by another smaller, dark cloud. The moonlight casts reflections on the wet sand and the waves. The overall mood is dramatic and serene, possibly symbolizing a journey or contemplation.
