Cruel World

With one chance to change the world

I would change the world in a chance.

 

I would change society’s views.

Stop the judgment and crime

Teach love and peace

And one by one bring the world to harmony.

 

I would change the mindset of people,

Tell them that an extra inch on the waist

Or a simple bump on the face,

Should not lead someone to their fate.

 

I would change society to understand

If you can’t make a basket

Or pass a test

You’re no less of a person from the rest.

 

I would change the world to be a better place

A different pigment in your skin

A hand me down skirt, or even a sin

Doesn’t make you any different from the human race.

 

I would change the world.

I would teach the world to accept others,

To accept that everyone has a different life

Yet we are all the same.

 

I would turn this cruel world around.
