could the day ever come where we are all filled with joy

peace filtered into our mind?

will the time ever arise where every girl and boy

would have people who treated them kind?

could we ever make a truce to stop our battle

for power and control?

or will children continue to die like cattle

from a hungry beaten soul?

.

are we so selfish, lazy, or mean

that we will do nothing as the innocent die?

or is it that some have been to protected to have seen

how the hopeless and shattered souls cry?

as we complain about clothing, styles, and possessions

others lie starving without a home?

can we give up our pitiful worry's and lazy confessions

to let the weak know they are not alone?

.

but as it seems that no one will take action

millions will still suffer and die.

none will know of peace, safety, and sanction

as on the streets, we pass them by.

.

so lets just go back to our life of constant complaining

and selfish unneeded worry.

im sure there's someone else we will be blaming

when God unleashes his furry.

for when he comes he'll help the lost

the ones we wouldn't save.

and we will wonder if it was worth the cost

to stay in our selfish desires all day?

now dont ever say you were never told

of the consequences that would come?

for it was your selfish desire's that made you so bold

to think your life was better than some.
