We Used To Be People
The world we fight to much, for all the wrong reasons.
We dont stand together at the right times, none of us are believing.
That if we did, we could really bring the change to this earth.
Together if we're united, it is us that have the real worth.
But instead we rip each other apart with racism, with hate, and with statements of war.
We do exactly the opposite of everything we were put on this earth for.
We fight the wrong battles, we choose the wrong paths.
We make our loved ones cry now nobody laughs.
Yet still only a few decide they want to try and make a change.
While others sit back at home and complain, they sit back and rage.
But why do they do this, is it because they are scared.
Or is it because there is no one to make them aware.
Aware that the world is ****, and is only getting worse.
That this life that we all live, just feels like a curse.
Or maybe there just comfortable, and only care for what they want, and what they have.
I think thats the honest truth, i think thats why the world today is so sad.
