war

power and money

fear and hate

war

 

why does war happen,

i do not understand

why do you want to fight over land

you kill and you slay

causing so much pain

why i ask, why

 

money doesn't matter

when lives are to cost

why make people suffer

live in fear

just so you can rule

under a fist

the fist may look good

but is not what it seems

 

i love my world,

my home too,

but i don't like the hate

so much hate

why can we not care

why can we not accept

it doesn't matter who you are

you are a human

and nothing will change that

why can people not see 

that everyone

is a human being

    “When you’re living on your knees you rise up.”

    Some people are on their knees because

    They’re bowing down to him.

    Some people are on their knees because

    They’re hopeless.

     

    Here, take my hand.
