Combo human work and chatgpt. I had Chad GPT make verse 2 and 3, and then after listening to it a bit I decided to write verse 1 myself. The first half of the bridge was also done by chatgpt, I added the second half.
It does have some uses and it’s gotten a lot better. Generic in some ways, but as a practice verse and just something to keep up with the news cycle I think it’s good.

Give me one more sentence : As of January 8, 2025, multiple wildfires are ravaging the Los Angeles area, with the Palisades Fire alone scorching nearly 16,000 acres and destroying over 1,000 structures.
These fires have resulted in at least five fatalities and forced the evacuation of approximately 100,000 residents.
Experts attribute the increasing frequency and intensity of such wildfires to climate change, which has led to drier conditions and stronger winds in the region.
Firefighting efforts continue as over 7,500 personnel battle the blazes, but containment remains challenging due to extreme weather conditions.

The land is burning, The land is burning
The land is burning, The land is burning
The land is burning, fire trucks are blaring
Disaster declared evacuees preparing
Leave everything they own it turns to ash
Wind fanned flames burning so fast
Fire fighters out water have met their match
Preventative measures hoping flame don’t catch
California a tinder box
When the fires done up on cinder blocks
People have questions politians can’t dodge
When it’s time speak their throat fills with frogs
Weather’s extreme, doomsday planners
Broke out their stash and police scanners
Waiting for the scammers, that’s what comes next
Pain and death are a profit pretext
—————————————
Yo, the flames don’t lie, they reveal the truth,
From the forest to the hills, the fire’s the proof.
You doubters stay blind, but the earth don’t play,
The climate screams loud, it’s judgment day!
Pumpkin skies, children’s cries
Some say in darkness the truth dies
Purchase politicians with alibis
Playing games while the planet dies
—————-
Yo, the skies burn red, the land’s a funeral pyre,
Smoke signals rise, it’s the climate’s choir.
The earth’s in flames, man, we’re feelin’ the heat,
And doubters still claim it’s a natural feat?
Drier than a desert, winds whip like a blade,
Fueling the inferno that we humans made.
You call it coincidence? I call it the cost,
Of ignoring science till our green’s all lost.
Palisades ablaze, 16,000 scorched,
The flames are the evidence, the truth’s been torched.
Carbon in the air, nature’s payin’ the toll,
While y’all still debate, man, we losin’ control.
They funded police, left the flames to feast,
Priorities skewed, protectin’ the beast.
Capital reigns, profit blinds the eyes,
While firefighters beg, watchin’ cities fry.

Yo, the flames don’t lie, they reveal the truth,

Some say in darkness the truth dies
Purchase politicians with alibis
Playing games while the planet dies
——————————————
Yo, it’s a wake-up call, can’t you hear the alarms?
Paradise turned to ash, cities lost to the harm.
We gotta organize, mobilize, rise as one,
Make the politicians move ‘fore the damage is done.
From Maui’s scorched earth to Canada’s haze,
The world’s on fire, stuck in capital’s maze.
We can’t rebuild dreams on a foundation of ash,
Gotta fight for the future, make the moment last.
They stall with their lies, say the problem’s too vast,
But the clock’s tickin’ fast, how long can this last?
We the people, we the power, we hold the key,
Force their hands, bring the change that we need to see.
Cut the strings, make ‘em serve, not the billionaire’s greed,
We plantin’ seeds of change, watch the system concede.
No more puppets on thrones, we demand what’s fair,
Put the people over profit, show ‘em we care.

The climate screams loud, it’s judgment day!

Some say in darkness the truth dies
Purchase politicians with alibis
Playing games while the planet dies
