Things On Our Minds
How can I get this money for this bill,
How do I fix the wounds that won't heal,
Does the person I love really know the deal,
Are they a fake friend or are they real.
How am I gonna eat tonight,
Why can't people just treat other people right,
Why do people only see things in black and white,
Why do people lie because your lies will soon come to light.
Why are people so stuck in there ways,
How can you throw a good person away,
Why do I have to deal with depression every day,
Why is my life in such disarray.
Why do people hate on another race,
When will my blessings fall into place,
Why can't I have a smaller waist,
When will I ever catch a break.
Why can't I be prettier,
Why can't I be skinner,
Why are people so bitter,
Why can't things be easier.
What did I do so wrong to be mistreated,
Why are people so greedy,
Why is he cheating,
Why can't someone make me feel needed.
Why can't more people be giving,
Why can't people be more caring,
Why can't I live a better life than I'm living,
Why can't more people be forgiving.
Why can't we all get along,
Why have I lived in pain so long,
Why don't I feel like I belong,
When will people stop treating me wrong.
When will good things happen for me,
When will I be happy,
When will I stop living in misery,
Why don't I have a mommy.
What can I do to help touch a heart,
How can I save a life from falling apart,
Why can't I be smart,
Why does my family life so far.
Why am I getting beat,
Why can't I stand on my own two feet,
Why do I feel so incomplete,
Why can't more people be sweet.
How can I help make someone smile,
Why do people have to be so hostile,
How can I make this little time I have left worth while,
Why are my kids so wild.
I want world peace,
I want to make a difference,
I want to be remembered,
I want to help save a life.
There are many more things that are on our minds
But I just named some of the thoughts people think
