Is there still time for us? vs 1 I wake up to a sunrise, and a beautiful blue sky, so many questions unanswered I'm still left with the big why vs 2 I see that the earth still turns, we watch as our planet burns? will humans never learn?

Before you came, the nights were long, The house was cold, the world felt wrong. Three boys too young to understand, Why life was harder than we planned. Our trust was gone, our hope was thin, But still you came, and still walked in. No blood to bind, no name to share, Yet somehow we found safety there. You fixed what life had...
