Take a look around

Trying to make a difference
In such a messed up place
Too scared,
I’m not prepared,
to face this.
Always so much going on
It’s like I’m spinning out of control.

Everywhere you look
there’s people dying, crying,
lying without consequence.
Lives sacrificed and disaster strikes.
While they pollute our lives and minds
Our Earth is dying,
There’s a way to save it,
but greed and power get in the way,
dollar signs make them blind.

When will it stop,
what will it take to make them care
to remove the greed and hate
to bring us together,
we’re all too scared and unprepared.

Why is there life of luxury
When there’s millions dying,
Plagued with curable diseases
And avoidable starvation
Homes are falling on top of our families
And a contagious sadness chokes our lungs.
