Hi,
I made a song called The Clock. It deals with our relation with our earth. I made several songs of this topic, because it's concerning me and a lot of other people.
A while ago I posted another song on this forum about the same topic: Change the road.
The message looks a bit the same, but from another angle.
The lyrics were from last year, but I updated them. The same with the melody.
The style is called Novel, but I changed some instruments in it. along with the conga's I used a Japanese snare-instrument, the Koto and a House-Techno-Trance loop that symbolises the ticking of the clock.
I hope you enjoy the song.

The lyrics:
The Clock (c)HWBerkhout, 2019
I believed in politics
It made all work well
I listened to government
but their lies are packed so swell
I never listen to people
living in great wealth
They won't care for our environment
At least, that's how I felt
I trusted people
who know the state of our earth
But their promise to fight pollution
Is now covered in dirt
Many politicians speak words
that makes me sad
Why believe the United Nations?
While their lack of actions feel so bad
Chorus
No, don't wait until tomorrow
To see who saw the light
All words sound so hollow
And we can't sleep during the night
No, don't wait until tomorrow
But start doing what we must
If you feel your head's blown
keep faith in what you trust
like me
I like to listen to people
Who are able to give us hope
Let's start by join their movement
So we can do what others won't
No, don't wait until tomorrow
To see who saw the Light
Of course there will be sorrow
But in the end we win this fight
No don't wait until tomorrow
Just think of what to achieve
Let words don't sound hollow
and keep strong in that believe
No, don't wait until tomorrow
but join those who try
Those words will gain the power
where politicians stop to lie
Getting stronger by the hour
brings nature back on it's feet
So listen and shout it out loud
Indifference we'll beat!
'cause listen, listen and hear, the clock ticks...
