Criminally minded politicians acting saints Evil doers getting praised Innocent ones stuck in chains The rich and ***** go scot-free While the poor is severely punished On the streets, cops **** Skin color is still an issue Several hundreds die 'cause of their religious beliefs Drug overdose is on the increase Gangbanging in the hoods still claiming lives I hate guns but a gun is not killer, humans are! Genuine trust is as rare as the Unicorn Maybe the beautiful souls are yet to be born or they are long gone What of the epidemy of baby mama and baby dads Kids raised with no father figure in their lives They’ve got to find their way in a world so evil They end up been taken advantage of and Many becoming parents in their teens We live in a society Where getting money is rated higher than living with integrity Who cares if someone is getting hurt, so far my pocket is getting fat The thoughts of a self-centered heart Even the environment is suffering Global warming Plastics in the oceans Tons and tons of trees are fell Our rivers and seas are polluted At the end of the day, We all face the consequences Computers are helping a lot But also taking people's jobs A lot are depressed From spending too much time on the internet Tortured by other's fake online presence I bet you, the list goes on and on... It almost feels like a curse How do we save ourselves from ourselves How do we separate the chaff from the wheat? How do we redeem the beasts in human skin? I guess it all begins with you and me Nothing but love can restore our sanity
