[bodytext] => Everybody wants to live a dream A life straight out of a magazine Nobody wants the real reality Unless they're watching Jersey Shore Nobody really wants to be poor Everybody tries to ignore The fact that 60% of this world is probably poor And the fact of the matter is people just want more and more sovereignty Not that that's bad That's something we all wish we had I'm just a tad annoyed how it's always about us Not about them Them as in the child that sewed the hem of your shirt Them as in the people that get hurt in wars Them as in the girls that are sold into being whores Them as in the people who are victims of hate and rape Them as in the people who have not had peace where they're from to date Those are the people who don't mess with fate And those are the people who I appreciate It's hard to even contemplate the rate at which our minds are being brainwashed It's hard to even think that people have to wait in line for hours just for 6 ounces of water It's hard to even imagine that babies are dying due to starvation and dehydration Life is hard... So WAKE UP AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!
