When I was younger I made a stand

I remember when I was young
And full of life and made a stand
Against all I saw was wrong
Like vivisection and nuclear bombs
I fought for animal rights
And stood for CND in demonstrations
We stood up gor what was right
We made a stand against corruption
So I am so glad to see those following on
Making a stand against climate change
But I think we néed to see the change I believe that is needed today
A whole society change reexamine all that we do today
Like promoting peace over war
This should be at our very core
And encouraging love over hate
And all of those who divide us each day
And nurture nature to ensure
We somehow reverse or stop climate change
I’d of done this when I was young
And I still do this today except older in age
Now it’s time for today’s youth to do the same
Pile the pressure on each day
Demand and force about change
Using direct action a intellect to highlight the shame
Of those who create sand steer society in this misguided way
It’s time to stand and be brave
Reboot out society and its ways.
