Royal Soil Rap

Chorus

Soil, royal soil. It’s just like black gold.

Soil, royal soil. Our love for you’s grown cold.

 

Soil, royal soil, everything we have comes from it.

The food in the sack, the clothes on your back,

The royal soil done it.

And with this in mind, I’m thinkin’ it’s time

For giving the honor due,

Soil’s alive and from it we thrive,

You know what I’m talkin’ is true.

 

Now here is the case, we’re starting to waste

The black gold, and it’s dear.

For makin’ an inch, it’s takin the earth

Up to a thousand years.

 

And then in a haste we hurry and waste

The soil we had in plenty.

It brings me to tears, we’re losing that inch

In how many years? Just twenty!

 

For us to loose an inch that took the earth so long to make,

That’ll wash away, creeks and streams, while handing out handshakes.

Now we got the royal soil every farmer alive craves.

If we continue in our ways,

The soil won’t stay.

This isn’t a bash, I’m not being brash,

Just love for the planet earth.

 

See, we got to change and rearrange,

Stop treatin’ her like dirt.

Yeah, we got to change and rearrange,

Stop treatin’ her like dirt.

We got to change and rearrange,

Stop treatin’ her like dirt.
