Pay Attention

A perfect world
Holds no secrets
A perfect world
Poverty would not exist

Why is it that
When people take control
Some live in estates
While others live in a pothole

What is wrong
With people today
I'll eat out of the trash
While you eat your souffle

Do you need all
Of that money galore
Give some to the children
Who are left on the floor

Feed the hungry
Help the needy
Don't look at them from down your nose
You are being way too greedy

Help them out
Take the high road
It is the right thing to do
They will remember the kindness you showed

Just don't believe me
But just you know
That because of you
Someone just died from hungers deathblow
