What would you change?


If it were up to me

I would change poverty.

People are trying to rock Gucci ,

while others have nothing to eat.

People dont have clean water to drink 

while others think they can waste what others can drink,

its sad to think people have no clothes

but others throw theirs away because it is no longer cool.

WE need to help the needy

they are happy to be alive;

yet people make it seem like they died

because they did not get McDonalds

but they had already eaten. 

Instead of giving that one dollar that will change their whole day 

you perfer to keep it.

Help someone in need.

The government is giving money away,

but in a dumb way. 

they give money to people with IPhones,

but they can't seem to give to those with no clothes
