Some Problems Today

I feel like I'm lost in a world full of hate and greed And it's sad to see how many of you would agree But instead of being the one to try and change it We all just turn our backs not to face it People building empires People living in the gutter We are all people who should be helping one another We seem to be a nation that's fallen under the weather Sweeping all of our problems under the rug Wondering why nothing ever gets better We the nation voted for someone who shouldn't even be in office And then get all offended when he can't fulfill his promise You really think that one man has the power to change the world Well maybe he does but he still wants help from all the boys and girls To join together as a once powerful nation Then maybe he'll give us all something to believe in
