 | With whole world, in which we live
As we loose faith and take instead of give
Financial horrors and the polotics to blame
Left to be lost children loosing their lives to gangs
Killing of the innocent, hearts with no remorse
Racially motivated hate, status symbols set course
Fear of being the eaten, many with no job
Once respectable people now going out to rob
Babies having babies, granparents at twenty two
He said He knew us in the womb, but we are murdering them too
We wonder why people stare into the sky
Afraid of everything that pops that passes by
Everyone in power seems to want more
Everyone in need seems to get even more poor
Unrecognized negligence runs rampid in our way
No money to pay a bill, but money to throw away
Is this our cycle
We are pedaling ourselves away
Removing worship from everything, they don't want us to pray
Our world given to spoiled children, mom and dad always provide
Not knowing how to earn their own
They figure gain is gain, so the take it with honest lies
Technology making the lazy, good and bad misused
Mothers and fathers in fantasy world
While their children are robbing banks, making the news
For correction of a child, they lock away you and me
Seeing that, these children are left to horrify free
We are lost, morals and values that paved the way
We wanted better for our children, so we threw them away
Media causing curruption, private lives don't exist
Identity theft is rampid, my name is surely on some list
"Just do it", is more than just a nike shirt
Well, I guess we just did it and did it so much it hurts
We all want to be heard, whether it is just or just to be seen
We don't listen, instead we fist in
Worried about whats green
Marriage is a rarety, more failing each day
What happened to forgiveness, working for each other everyday
Now the children suffer, while we smile at our new lover
Did we try to save it, or just let it slip away
Whatever grounds for this
I am sure we can set it in reverse
One thing about change
When change is good, sometimes it hurts
Either way, we are still here
All of us bracing for shock
Careful to open the door
We don't know what comes to knock
