welcome to the world,
it's full of hatred and liesthis may not seem to be the case,
but can you open your eyes?within twenty four hours,
the sun will rise and fallwithin those twenty four hours,
a young child will begin to crawlone day, that poor child will see
just how cruel the world isnot every single day
will be filled with pure blissthat child will live a life
surrounded by sexism and racist behaviorone day, the only birthday gift wished for
will be for a saviorand if that child grows
and learns that they are queergod, the hatred that they will endure
is going to be severeif this young kid is anything
besides what has been deemed "normal"then this child will grow
to be hurt and remorsefulevery day,
the sun will rise and set the samebut what if, one day,
that kid will die in shame?they say not to look much towards the future,
to keep your head in the presentbut, currently,
the world isn't all that pleasantevery day,
the sun rises and sets the samea woman will be raped today,
and she will take the blamea man will use her,
and take away her powerone day,
the only thing she'll know is to cowerevery day,
the sun rises and sets the samea man somewhere will cry,
and he will be shamedif a man shows
even the slightest hint of emotionhe will be told to "man up",
even though he is torn and brokenthat's just society,
the world is so cruelso awful, that a child
may be too afraid to set foot in a schoolevery day,
the sun rises and sets the samebut today, somewhere,
a young kid died in vaina student this week
may bring a gun to schooltheir heart was shattered and hurt,
now all they can be is crueldeath is a heavy subject,
let's look at something lighterright now,
someone is starting a forest firethis world is dirty,
filled with trash and litterand, as global warming continues,
kids soon won't know the meaning of winterif this world could open its eyes,
maybe then we all could seethat, one day,
we may never again look at another treesome of us notice,
maybe some of us will changeyet most of us won't,
we will all just see it as strangeuntil, one day,
the sun will set and never returnmaybe then will we all learn
the world is ugly,
but if you think of it a bit more clearlythe world is actually so beautiful,
society is just horrid and greedy.
