The world today

So much unrest Mankind seems to be failing the test We are not at our best Crime soaring Voices roaring Everyone wants to fight Doesn't seem right I don't understand This is not how it was planned I see the hate So much of late Violence ruling who we think we are fooling So many dying We are no longer flying Falling Foreward motion is stalling Going in the wrong way With the future we play Puts a tear in my eye Falling from the sky I do not understand why Fake Such a mistake Mankind sinking in it's wake Humanity could go so far Reaching for a star Just have to survive all the hate Change this fate Leave it behind Bring peace to the mind Be kind I have faith in my heart Mankind cannot stand apart. But I feel fear Think war is near Too bad Makes me sad Something has to give Let humanity live Life is priceless Hate should be lifeless Step above the hate It is not to late I don't like the way The world is today My dreams are in the knowing Stop hate from growing The pain is showing Compassion needs to stay Let love lead the way
