If a gang member gets shot,
No one cares,
If the president gets shot,
Everyone’s scared,
This world is mixed up,
I just do not understand,
Why quarrel with the other side,
When we live in the same land,
Our soldiers fight for freedom,
Yet the government holds the key,
The government has many corrupt secrets,
This I could guarantee,
People are hungry all over the world,
And others cut down trees,
No more room for even the squirrel,
We look for other countries to siege,
But the people of our own country we do not please,
Avarice urges us to build more WMD’s,
And Xbox 360’s and Ps3’s,
Yet I’m no one special, just the average teenage boy,
I end on this question,
Whatever happened to love, peace, and joy?
