I'm sitting here doing nothing
While people fight in a war and on streets
Dying so I can go to sleep feeling safe.
I'm complaining about homework
While there are too many going without school
Barely knowing how to read.
I'm throwing away half eaten bag of chips
While people starve around me
Begging for even the tiniest morsel.
I talk about the problems
Saying how people need to change
That they need to take a stand,
Yet what have I done?
Nothing. I've done nothing.
If change is going to happen...
I'm going to start it
And then I can reach out to you
And together we can do something.
Words are powerful but actions will always speak louder.
