One pregnant with child, but under the age
A broken man hurt, on suicides stage
A good women stalked, this her lost cry
'To god I do hope the end is quite nigh'
A boy just a teen, alone with no home
A girl just a teen, on the streets she does roam
An old man lies dead, for but pocket change
Back-alleyway deals, blood money exchange
Five thousand miles south, famine persists
A self-helping loan, a debt of abyss
Weapons produced, in masses of millions
One is to much, but we have a trillion
A war against terror, by a world fuelled by hate
Oil by death, left seized on a plate
Were killing each other, its simple to see
Were locked in a cycle, a paradox for the free
This world isn't ours, thats plain to my face
We cant even live, race amongst race
We might as well die the day we are born
To stop ourselves 'coming a capitalist pawn
