Why Is Everyone So Angry

Why is everyone so angry
It’s a heavy load to carry
Always spouting words of hate
As if one moment you can’t wait?

The cars ahead, all idiots
The ones who ‘have’, hurt the ‘have nots’
Nothing is fair, nothing is right
Why must you always pick a fight?

Find a leader who’ll treat you fair
Speak your peace, then clear the air
A grudge is like an albatross
To hold it close will be your loss!

If you let anger rule your soul
You’ll never win the final goal
To live in harmony, we must
Find those solutions we can trust!
