What We Need


We want and we need

Not thinking of the difference 

We want an iPod 

We want a cellphone 

We want a car

But do we really need these things 

Our main needs 

Food

Water

Shelter

So what do we need?

Do we need to see the reality 

That not all of us have the basic necessities 

Do we need the support of our families?

Try thinking of the people who lost theirs

What we need to do is help them

Give them hope

Give them love

We need to start making the world a better place 

We want to live our life's without care

But we need to be good people 

So the world can get on it feet

And be happy again
