They don't have money to feed the poor
But can afford to spend coins and lives
On their selfish conflicts?
A little boy who should be in school
Is currently dying in the battlefield
A little girl who should be playing happily
Is found dead in a large red pool
They said that they were "Terrorists"
But whoever believes this is nothing but a fool
Weren't these cold bodies once human, too?
Or are only those who've got power 'humans' to you?
Isn't it funny how these 'power' people
Claim that they are worthy of being human
When they bear no ounce of humanity?
-Currently listening to "Eat your young" by Hozier.
