Earth has no master, it follows no dogma
It just exists, as if a rock spinning in orbit
However we measure it or judge its worth
It is unique, of the planets in the universe
It alone supports life, supports our needs
Consider it a lifeboat, in a terrible storm
If anything happens to her, we will drown
If there's but one planet we know with life
We all should pray we never have to flee
We do not know what else can be found
With paths limited, we can do two things
Assume we've more planets such as this
Or
Treat our world carefully and cherish it
And treat it as if it is all we have forever
The truth is, our home may be our tomb
May our home be blessed and endure
Long after we as a species, perish
It just exists, as if a rock spinning in orbit
