Wages of hate

Some live life in a rage
Thinking the world is their personal stage
Refusing to turn to a new page
Dude hates what life has to give
Refusing to live
A slave to hate
Feels it is his fate
Wanting the world to feel
A moment in time stands still
Hate comes in many forms
Starting many storms
Hard to see
Here in the land of the free
Or anywhere 
To be fair
Hate is there
Getting stronger everyday 
Thinking it is here to stay
What makes a man hate so much
They lose touch
Hard to fight
When someone believes they are right
Puts a tear in my eye
Why must so many die
Peace, seems so far
Hard to recover from such a scar
The world rages
Dark, will be our  future pages
Mankind pays the wages
For a world gone mad
So sad
My heart breaks in two
At the evil that man can do
I dont understand 
Why do people follow hates marching band
Hate is growing
And it is showing 
Something must be done now
I just don't know how
Wish I knew what to do 
To turn hearts true 
This must stop before it is too late
We need to join together to stop this fate.
Love must not lose
Up to us to choose 
Hate is wrong
Same sad song
Love is the way
Let it start today
