Issues

We always want,
What we really don't need.
Always wanting more,
Only obtaining greed.

You think things are hard,
Life is just too tough.
Well look at the third world countries,
Where a little just isn't enough.

Killing for peace just doesn't make sense,
How can war be our only defense.
Whys it OK to kill when there's a war going on?
How dangerous is life that we all need a gun.

Why can't we just all get along,
You can't solve things by dropping a bomb.
We're all human beings with skin,
A colour will always just be a colour.
There's no need to fight amongst each other.

We're lucky enough to have our own freedom,
Who are we to deny others of theirs?
We pretend to be in control and distribute rites evenly.
The human rites we are born with,
We're all the same in reality.
