A Better Place
People in the streets screaming,
families at home crying,
when is it going to end,?
All the killing,
all the pain.
A daughter losing a father,
a mother losing a son,
all this over one mans greed.
Theres so many deaths,
on both sides,
I wish I would wake up from this nightmare.
Why can't we all live together?
Why is there so much hate?
Just cause someone different from you.
If we would get over this,
The world would be a better place to be.
No more pain,
No more loss.
Everyday someone gets that envelope,
"They fought well" it would say,
but that doesn't matter,
someone somewhere is crying over the loss of a loved one.
Everywhere you go someone is praying to God,
for all to end.
So many broken-heart and shattered dreams.
So much blood and tears where ever you go.
We need to all stand together,
Work together to make the world a better place.
