I Ask this of You

I scream about dark things. I know it's true.
I scream about corruption, killing and abuse.
I scream about pollution, energy and such.
I scream about them because there is so much.
They need the attention, compassion and starts.
They need the dedication of each of our hearts.

I don't have the power to effect this change.
I'll leave this world but they will remain.
Maybe my words will create a spark.
Fueled by the flames of each of your hearts. 
Here's what I'll offer. Here's what I'll do.
I'll not remain silent and I ask this of you.

I know that you don't want to look at these things.
It was hard for me when I started to change.
These things don't weaken but strengthen in time.
The truth is they exist; out of darkness we climb.
I hope that my words don't fall on deaf ears.
I hope that I'll get help and mighty big cheers.

I don't have the power to effect this change.
I'll leave this world but they will remain.
Maybe my words will create a spark.
Fueled by the flames of each of your hearts. 
Here's what I'll offer. Here's what I'll do.
I'll not remain silent and I ask this of you.

Stop the corruption, killing and abuse.
Stop the pollution. Earth isn't amused.
Stop injustice from the civilian's view.
Stop my hurting I ask this of you.
Stop the vengeance we add to the world.
Stop silence; let your tongue be unfurled.

I don't have the power to effect this change.
I'll leave this world but they will remain.
Maybe my words will create a spark.
Fueled by the flames of each of your hearts. 
Here's what I'll offer. Here's what I'll do.
I'll not remain silent and I ask this of you.
