can you, will you tell me why

Can you tell me why we turn a blind eye to
The people in need

Will you tell me why you choose to act like you can not
See the hungry child

Can you tell me why no one chooses to see the children
Who need a helping hand

Will you tell me why you feel you can step on
Anyone to get what you want

Can you tell me why people think that their lives are
Far more important than another’s life

Will you tell me why we don’t practice what we preach

Can you tell me why it seems like people just don’t care

Will you tell me why we need to fight

Can you tell me why it is easier to hate than to love

Will you tell me why we are only out for ourselves
