Their Cries

Can't you hear the peoples cries? But, wait. Does it even matter to us? If we aren't the ones in distress? Do we take the time to ask? Or is that too much of a task? Would we make a difference, If we didn't worry about convenience And took time to comfort them? Not to condemn But to listen Because it's time to take action Their hearts are crying out They're screaming out For ?love, for attention They think they are done With life, with everything But this is just the beginning I'm done standing on the sidelines Because there is a deadline I don't want to be too late We need to spread love into the hate It's time to start Speak to their hearts Join me in this mission It's time for you to listen Because we're not done We need to help someone Open your ears, and open your eyes Can't you hear their cries?
