A Better World
I dream of a better world,
a better place to roam.
No more pain, lies,
no more hatred shown.
This perfect world I live in,
doesn't matter if your skins dark or light.
Everyone's treated equally,
whether your Mexican, Asian, or white.
No prostitutes,
selling themselves out on the streets.
No poor people,
they all have real food to eat.
Killing has stopped,
it doesn't exist anymore.
Murderers have found,
better things to live for.
No more tragedies;
there is no more war.
My world's at peace,
there are better things in store.
Soon to be mothers,
show their babies nothing but love.
In my world,
abortion's never been heard of.
Drugs and alcohol,
it's all gone.
Broken hearts, crushed dreams,
life always goes on.
