A Wish


I wish I was a lawyer So that I can fight injustice I wish I'm a government To help the poor masses I wish I was a police To stop crimes I wish To be a teacher To educate students I wish I was a doctor To save all the patients I wish I was a scientist To make the world better I wish I were you, who will read All these things and change I wish To be a good citizen Who will just do the right thing I wish There were no racialism So that We can live as one I wish There were pure love So there won't be atrocities I wish You'd read this solemnly And do what it just says I wish These would live in your souls For enternity.
