Fate of a peaceful organism Someway victim of its altruism Today endangered
Most ancient ecosystem on earth Safest place to live or to give birth 25% of known fishes live in the coral reef It is the most diversified ecosystem on earth Million years, it takes to grow bigger (But) A few years to disappear
What was paradise's Now Hell!
Chorus We must prevent your destruction (I am – the soul – of the ocean) Rainforest of the silent place (I'm aching) Shelter of the Rainbow nation (Suffering – from – your indifference) Essential for any race (I'm dying)
Crashed … shattered Crushed ... Ignored
Source of knowledge, food and medicine You protect the shores Corals provide medicines used to cure Alzheimer and Parkinson's diseases. The Coral reef protects the shores from wave erosion But "must-have" souvenir from paradise Suffocating as mercury rises
What was paradise's Now Hell!
Chorus Take the time to look at it Part of you is part of it (It's) not a lie, do you know it?
Something under the surface Pray for pity, for a grace Wave at you for a caress
See all the joy it has brought to them For so many years
I want a rest in this Haven
Take on board for a trip under zero Come and fly with us, just a step below
We keep on living (Paradise) The reef is dying (Hell)
Can't you hear the Whales' cry? The reef's heart is running dry
Chorus Stop your crime or I'll change… By My tide: My Revenge!
If we repent now Will you forgive us? Our Hell.
What Was Paradise's Now Hell
Piece by piece falling apart
(I) hope it's not too late To save coral's fate
Damages done - Oil slicks Cracking bones We got to be quick
This is not a secret I'm fed up with your lies! Everybody knows – I'm dying!
They can buy the future Can they stop the tide? Simple words are sometimes right
Simple is not naive Please forget your pride Try to be a little wise….
Can you stop the countdown? Put off our crown? If you look out of your towns…
