If Only (Dreams of Love)
Craving more than what we've got
A desire burns and it burns a lot
I'm not speaking monetary
I know the answer is in me
How can I affect humanity
Save the children from the horror of war
Stop the bullets that take animals to the floor
Feed the homeless and the poor
End our planets suffering core
I'm a dreamer,
But they are dreams of love
If only peace would fly
Like the dove
If only our priority was kindness
And life was priceless
If only we took what we need
Instead of being governed by greed
Take, take, take, and when it comes to giving back
Generosity seriously lacks
It's not my problem
We have nothing in common
It doesn't affect me
So just let it be
It's not my family,
Nor my community
It's not my country,
it doesn't bother me
It's not my ocean
So continue to fill it full of poisonous potion
They're not my animals,
Who cares if they go extinct
I'll breath in toxic air
So long as it doesn't stink
Be complacent
And you're complicit to all these things
Take responsibility
For the outcome that it WILL bring
