The World We Live In

We live in a world Of violence and hate They say they can stop it Can't they see it's too late? They missed the big picture By ignoring the small Because of their ignorance This society will fall Children will starve People will die And when all this happens Who's going to cry? The ones who ignored the signs And called them a lie? I don't think so They don't care now They didn't care then If they won't care after chaos Then when?
