It's Not Up To Me

Location

Given the shot

To change the world...

To do anything with

The power given to me...

What Would I Do?

 

I'd like to say something cute

And conventional like I would

End World Hunger, Homelessness, Abuse, Fear, Poverty, Disease, War

But all of them stem from one problem: APATHY.

That is what I would change.

 

People don't care as long as the problem doesn't

Affect them.

If they can ignore the problem and

Keep their life simle, they will.

 

As long as their bellie's are full, their babies

Clothed, a roof keeping

The rain out of their hair, they feel

Satsfied.

 

If people cared about

These issues, they wouldn't exist.

I want to change that.
