Teens committing suicide

Just to feel alive

Stores throwing away left overs

While homeless children starve

I ask why

They say it’s for the charts

As for those teens

They were sick from the start

A tear fell down my eye

I knew that was a lie

Broken record plays

Says over and over again

That’s just the world

This is life

Well in this world

Something just isn’t right

How do we sleep at night?

Inspiration is just blowing in the wind

Won’t someone try to catch it again?

Change was promised soon to come

But as time rolls on

That promise has not been done

It takes more than just one person you see?

It takes the million of us

Including me

With so much money being paid off to celebs

Why can’t that money go somewhere else?

Like to Africa to those who really strive

Not to make movies

But to stay alive.

Love is now an abused fashion

No one knows its true nature

A kiss is out of the question

You must first put your hand there…

Romance has become a reality only in fairy tales

Young girls wish for it down wishing wells

Young boy’s scores and playing games

Instead of knowing there partner.

When will the good happen?

Why do we have to die to experience a little piece of heaven?

People who want an education don’t have the money or way

Those who want to change aren’t given the chance

Children fighting to live are given the cold shoulder.
