The Whole Thing's Pretty Sad

Things were not meant to be this way

Ongoing unrest and so much oppression

The world doesn't have to be Nirvana

Just a little peace and so much less aggression

Our Planet is being contaminated at a phenominal rate

And omnipresent, eco-systems destroyed and so, so much pollution

Scientists proclaim that if changes are not made

And made realitively soon, there really will be no solution

With the ultra-rich and the People in power

Acting under the pretense that they care

All of the atrocities and belligerence

And the lying and dying, almost everywhere

There is no doubt that People with clout could do it

And it's certainly not going to happen overnight

But, these people could definitely initiate changes needed

Creating the in-roads to make things right

The major problem, it is complete and utter greed

And the illegal printing of money with impunity has to cease

With political bankrolling, media contolling and the arms keep on a-rolling

Obviously, there ain't no money in peace

Atrocities, destruction and defeat, maimed families and kids in the street

Countries like, Iraq, Syria, Yemen and so many more

Would we look at it any differently if our cities were turned to rubble?

Our infra-structure, our homes and our lives ruined to the very core

And how would you like to witness the slaughter of our mothers, sons and fathers

Or the rape of a twelve year old daughter and nine year old boy taken off to war

For in many innocent minds this truly is etched and for us, seems so far-fetched

Well take your head out of the sand 'cause there's more

There are many sites you can visit, just google pizza gate or lolitta express

You'll be surprised what shit comes up on your screen

And could it be that tranfused young blood has anti-aging properties?

Do some research and you'll find, that those pristine people were not so upright and clean

Because of insinuations, cover-ups and fake news, it's hard to decipher what's true

And the good is being overwhelmed by the bad

Unfortunately your children's, children will suffer the consequences

Without a doubt, the whole thing is pretty sad
