The Plastic Rap

Climate change solution
Be part of the contribution
Revolution
Against the confusion and illusion
With nowhere to move, nowhere to breath
Their corals are bleached, whales are beached
We’re destroying the life beneath
The oceans are getting increasingly hot
Where nothing can live, they’ll be no hope spot
Life can’t sustain in a large boiling pot
And all the fish will be left to rot
Plastic in all sizes fill up our oceans
So put in the work and have devotion
You can put a plan in motion
‘Cause these fish are caught in a state of commotion
Plastic
Is drastic
Be a hero
Not a zero
Recycle
Bicycle
Reduce
Don’t produce
Reusing’s
not confusing
If you dream it
You can climate
Set your goals high
And fix what will lie
Beneath the waves
And the ocean caves
Plastic is making all types of gasses.
Which warms the water where it passes.
The sea plants will dwindle and so will the grasses.
And fish are dying in large numbers in masses.
Is that enough of head’s up,
To realize that these fish can’t get a doctor’s check-up?
One mess up
Could cause their death, Yup!
And you don’t need a grown up!
To tell you what to do and what to think
Just ‘cause you’re a kid doesn’t mean you need to shrink
Maybe you’re the missing link
To help the creatures on the brink
One kid can make difference and that is what we preach,
You’ll be shocked at the amount of people that it can reach
Pick up some trash, clean up the beach
Might be one less coral that will bleach
The impact on the Earth is
Something that’s worth it
So don’t forfeit,
think of an idea and birth it
You could make a project that could change the course of the planet
Just think of an idea and go out there and plan it
Find a group of people with the same beliefs as you
Get together, make a change, make your goals come true
Plastic
Is drastic
Be a hero
Not a zero

Bicycle
Reduce
Don’t produce
Reusing’s
not confusing
If you dream it

Set your goals high
And fix what will lie
Beneath the waves
