Nobody Cares
A homeless man broke his legs falling through an abandoned building's stairs,
but sadly however, nobody cares.
A mother can't feed her children because her pantry is bare.
Sadly however, nobody cares.
Our children are dying in a war over there
deceived into believing that we're liberating a people lost in despair.
The truth is corporate giants want control of the oil over there
and war is also big business for these giants once it's declared.
Our children are being slaughtered and maimed for oil and profit
as the sinfully rich get richer with every military revenue deposit.
How could all of this continue to go on with so many being aware?
Most shamefully it appears that nobody cares.
