Don't Strife Change a Life
As the flag soars high I begin to cry
Just another day has gone by
But why should another die
All these thoughts ache in my head
All I want to do is lie down in bed
There is a wide range for us to change
Why stay the same
Why kill someone when you know no more than their name
Is it for fame
Or just part of a game
All of it is insane
The people around me bussle by
While my heart begins to cry
Where's the compassion and the love
All there is left is to pray to the stars above
I want to open their eyes to what I see
To what the world could truly be
If we all loved one another
If we all helped a brother
If we all would help each other
A perfect world is ideal to me
However that is less than likely
A man sits on a stoop with what resembles soup
A woman cries as her baby dies
A child pleas for attention
But I forgot to mention
Without love their is no hope
We all might as well sit around and mope
So my challenge for you is to love your neighbor through and through
Be there to love them and they'll love you
Be couragous
Love is contagious
