Corrupt People


Humans are such nasty beings But there is still a chance I'll plant the seeds of kindness And hopefully grow plants I'm saddened by the world and the state that it's in I would try to fix it but I don't even know where to begin All these bombings and these killings All these god-damned tragedies All these people running around ruining lives as they please I don't need to reach immortality But I would like to be a part of history be a picture in the books my kids would read and leave my mark on earth of a great noble deed I don't understand but I accept If and when people look up to me I'll fulfill their expectations and be somebody you can want to be I don't see with my eyes I only see with my heart but lately I've been having trouble telling everyone apart because Our world has come to such a disgraceful state I'd tell you my life story but You probably can't relate Humans are such nasty beings But there is still a chance I'll plant the seeds of kindness And hopefully grow plants
