Earth
Lutha Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Earth was everything your god could wish to make
The snow capped mountains and the deepest [?] lakes
The trees that grew so tall
And tried to touch the sky
They just stood there
And they lived until they died

Yes we've got to make it, turn again
Yes we've got to make it, turn again
So we've got to make it, turn again
You'll see-hee

Then the race began
And like the river flows,
Start it's morning clean
Then began to grow,
In the rapids we have lost our human pride,
And there's no place now
There's nowhere where we can hide

Yes we've got to make it, turn again
Yes we've got to make it, turn again
So we've got to make it, turn again
You'll see-hee

Yes the evening started darkness
Starts to show,
We'll kill our only home
The only place we know,
And the time has come
You know we've got to fight,
Are we condemned to live
And [?want each other light?]

Yes we've got to make it, turn again
Yes we've got to make it, turn again
So we've got to make it, turn again
You'll see-hee

Yes we've got to make it, turn again
Yes we've got to make it, turn again
So we've got to make it, turn again
You'll see-hee

Yes we've got to make it, turn again
Yes we've got to make it, turn again




So we've got to make it, turn again
You'll see-hee

Overall Meaning

The song "Earth" by Lutha reflects on the current state of the planet and the effect that humans have had on it. The song begins with a description of Earth's natural beauty - the snow-capped mountains, deep lakes, and towering trees that are so majestic. However, it soon becomes clear that humanity has not treated this beauty with the respect it deserves. Instead of preserving the natural world, we have polluted it and destroyed it through our own greed and arrogance.


The lyrics also suggest a call to action. As humans, we have the power to make a change and turn things around. But it will take effort and dedication to undo the damage that has been done. The song contains a sense of urgency, as the time to act is now. The consequences of further inaction could be dire, and we may lose the only home we have.


Overall, "Earth" is a powerful reminder of our responsibility to care for the planet and the consequences of neglecting this duty.
