A world so different
I see a world out there that can be so brilliant.
But this world frightens me...its changing so fast.
A world of violence and hatred...against each other.
This isn't like where I came from...a world so different.
Here we're so self-involved...no patience for anything.
Where we look at the needy...then turn our backs.
A world where people are tossed away....become homeless.
This isn't like where I came from...a world so different.
A world where we kill one another...terrorism is normal.
Where no one is trusted...not even ourselves.
Where jobs and economy...create more homeless.
This isn't like where I came from...a world so different.
A world of fear...of its self...its neighbors and friends.
It turns its back on people like me...who live in fear.
Families struggle everyday...just to survive.
This isn't like where I came from...a world so different.
A world of hard workers...that go unappreciated.
Where money and status...represent how much you're worth.
Where the future looks a little darker...as time goes on.
This isn't like where I came from...a world so different.
