why can't we?


why can't we see the bigger picture why can't we see other human figures why can't we all just get along why can't we all make each other strong day by day-night by night we hate and hate-fight and fight day by day-night by night we live without-peace in sight gangs and war hatred and violence years go by and still no silence why can't we learn to love and laugh why can't we learn to let the past wars be the last why can't we be each other's crutches why can't we be without grudges why can't we live without harm and hatred why can't we live without words so tainted words can kill, they often do when they're said-we have no clue they hurt real bad and stick like glue hatred forms and that's when we lose why can't we all just get along why can't we all make each other strong why can't we see the bigger picture why can't we see other human figures
