Right Now (Part 2)

Right now, now a father is crying with his face in his hands, He never expected his son to die, he had such better plans, But some punk wasn't looking at the kid crossing the street, He didn't care, just kept driving with his music sounding so sweet. Right now, some bastard is upstairs beating his wife, He promised that he'd love her for the rest of his life, She plans to commit suicide wondering what she did wrong, When it was this jerk who had the major issues all along. Right now, a man is driving to his job where he'll get fired, You see he never got it right, always had trouble getting inspired, Now he is driving home and stops slowly at the ridge, He can't break it to his wife so he jumps off the bridge. Right now, a cute girl is kissing a guy she just met, She realizes she doesn't even know the man's name yet, He tells her he loves her as he ties her hands and feet, Surely this wasn't her online date she was suppose to meet? Right now a young soldier is bleeding on himself in a war, This man is going to die and he doesn't even know what for, He and his squad always performed so well, with such aplomb, Now he won't make it home because of the maniac's suicide bomb. Right now, there is someone who hasn't eaten all week, The poor man is so famished he can barely even speak, That man would give a fortune to have the food you throw away, Yet so many people will just throw food in the trash night and day. Right now, some dude is in prison serving his life, Writing his final letter to his beautiful son and wife, Wrongly accused by those sworn to serve and to protect, The Judge said too bad when he said, your honor I object. Right now, you're probably wondering how some people cope, Maybe you've been lucky and time has given you reason for hope, Right now, I'm asking you to just stop and think next time, If you do nothing to help someone, this was a wasted rhyme, Yes, if you turn away, you're guilty of humanity's worst crime.
