Valentines Without Love
Living in a world of cowardly hearts and shallow minds
Police killing innocents, Murders, rapes happen daily
Kids getting tortured and left dead in Palestine
So I really don't care about you being alone on Valentines
You being single really isn't a big issue in the world
All you have to do is text I miss you to the girl
Police killing innocent people when they're supposed keep the streets safe
Paedophiles and rapists are getting early release dates
Then they're given new ID and allowed to live next door to a school
How can you expect there to not be a next war with these rules?
In a battle with my own government nevermind another country
Give my food for thought in hope I don't find you hungry
Hating someone else cause they're a different race or religion
We're trapping each other, so how can we escape the system?
The real criminals are in suits, not behind the cells
We don't deserve world peace, if we can't find it ourselves
In a world full of hate, where love and truth is rarely given
I talk about what they're scared of admitting
I might get hated for saying this, but free Palestine
I'm sick of people crying about being single on Valentines
