A Call From The Wild

The world is dominated by silence,
Now the nature has the time to enjoy it's elegance,
A dangerous virus has struck the world,
Now there's a responsibility for everyone to be bold.

For a fast moving world, there's a pause,
Many of you suffered a huge loss,
But this is the time to examine your conscience,
Because you have lost the value of patience.

It is high time for us to pay back,
Because of the moral values that you lack,
Greed and lust dominated your life,
Now that we have struck you with a knife.

Guess who's talking to you? We are the supreme creatures of the wild,
Of our curse, symptoms may be mild,
All we wanted was to teach you a lesson,
And of values, we gave you a session.

Kneel down before us and apologize to the kings,
Some of us have powers on our rings,
Remember, we have the power to wipe you out,
There's absolutely no room for doubt.

We gave you the forgiveness,
But you deserve this for your foolishness,
God has made you wise,
But to your neighbours, you weren't so nice.

Are you running behind success? Stop!
There are a lot of things you need to drop,
Things are going to be worse,
But don't worry, Very soon we will end the curse.
