violence

I look around as I walk the streets
and as I sit and watch my tv
and all I see is violence everywhere
violence at home in the workplace
in the streets and in our community
its everywhere
where does it end
how can it be stopped

that's when I realize
I can do nothing to make it stop
I wish that I could
I wish it was as simple as turning off a light switch
but sadly its not

little boys and girls all around the world
they are killed everyday for no good reason at all
and it makes me cry
I cry every day I live, for everyday someone dies

are people too damn lazy are they too damn scared
just get off of you asses people
and at least try and do something
for gods sake try and help

I cant do it by myself
but we can
we can stop the violence
if we don't at least try what are we then?

don't try and say that you don't see it that you aren't affected by it
I know you are, you know you are
its everywhere how can you not see it, how can you not be affected by it

when I see someone try and do something about all the violence
they become my hero
you can be my hero
please for the love of god be somebodies hero

all you need to do is try
try to stop the violence and be someone's hero
