Scars

This world that we live in surrounds us with hate
We look around and just shrug our shoulders
Oh Well
Species are dying
Yet we aren’t even trying
Resources are depleting, people stuck on the streets aren’t eating
Pollution in the oceans we used to love
But soon we will only have a faint memory of
Countries torn apart
Inequality poverty fatality
But wait
There’s still hope out there
If only we could come together and see
What happiness and peace could be
And mend our beautiful planet of its scars
I know its not hard
