The World Is Drowning In Hatred

There's a saying we all know Sharing is caring-- you will show How much love is deep inside If everyone had only tried To follow this one simple rule We would not be sinking in a pool Of hatred and brutality Open up your eyes and see We need to take a step back When kindness drove us on a track That didn't stop in anger town When did we get turned around From a place so long ago When we saw our neighbors grow Into friends and family Living free and happily Taking care of one another Like we were sisters and brothers Now the path this world is spinning Is losing all of the winning Spirit that was shown before Prejudice started up a war That is not going to end Until one by one we bend And lose all this buried anger Putting everyone in danger
