A World


We live in a world where your greatest accomplishment is the money you recieve,

We live in a world were the truth and love is hard to come by.

We live in a world where the clothes you wear and the things you own are what really matter.

A world where girls are taught they look prettier with make-up and a thin body, and boys are taught they shouldn't play with dolls.

We live in a world plagued by poverty and grief.

We live in a world full of racism and sexism, homophobia and hate.

A world where kids don't care about education but rather sex and drugs.

A world where society dictates what you do.

A world where we hide behind keyboards and social media, forgetting words hurt.

A world tht if you are a little different you get the ass end of land.

A world where "God give rights" aren't really right we recieve.
