When will we all smile

-i know itz long but if u get to the bottom pleez rate or comment. thanx-

Same things happenin’ everyday
Same struggles, same cries, nothing seems to change
Gutter allies and cold feet
Burning hearts and bodies so weak
No one takes the time to think
Days go on, murky and bleak
When will we all smile
Some say never
But there’s gotta be better weather
Pain comes with life
But no one should have to feel the knife
These tears have seeped for too long
Feel things going right, and then turn out wrong
Tired of listening to this sad song
When will we all smile
Cuz it’s been a long while
Why can’t everyone have a home
Cuz no one should have to live alone
Some don’t get the chance to grow old
While the killer out there skippin’ stones
New found diseases
Daddies leavin’
Prices going up, less food in the fridge
Everyone tryna build a bridge
To get over this hump
Seems to be no luck
Drinking to exape the misery
This world seems to have so many enemies
Having babies is the new fad
Teens seem to be more mad
Missing the life we used to have
Broken dreams, oh so sad
Giving up on the grades in skool
Mother’s saying we hangin’ with the wrong crew
Life is boring aint nothin' ta do
Bums walking with torn shoes
Adults hate the art we create
Say its graffiti, we think other but they take
Don’t smoke cuz it’s for our own sake
We caint have all blaques together in a group
Cuz the pigs see drama and so they all swoop
What can we do with our own kind
Without someone thinking we comitin’ a crime
Jus cuz we tryna collect the nickels and dimes
We always getting’ hit with hard tymes
Jail cells filling up so fast
Why we all caint breathe I feel to ask
Deadly sins getting higher; envy, pride, wrath
People wanting too much not happy with what we have
The ones who need it the most
Gotta choke to get the doe
It’s a shame when you don’t wanna wake up in the mo’n
Nothing pretty to see cuz we all on our own
Can’t except that we is all alone
Feeling this sorrow deep in the bone
Gotta home we can’t call home
Cuz we all show our problems,
Showin’ the obvious
We all need love
That real deep love
Cuz a hug,
Aint gon’ be enuff,
In this world were all we got is us
when will we all smile
some say never
but theres gotta be better weather
pain comes with life
but no one should have to feel the knife
these tears have seeped for too long
feel things going right and then turn out wrong
tired of listening to this sad song
when will we all smile
cuz it'z been a long while
