Look at what we've done
Our air is dirty
Our planet is dying
Our oceans have plastic in them
So congratulations
Look at all we've accomplished
Narcotics kill our neighbors
Some children are shot in schools
Others shoot themselves because we turn a blind eye to the fact that they need our help
And our elderly are robbed and beaten by those who are supposed to help them
So congratulations
Look at our success everyone
Families are torn apart at borders
Others are killed separately by terrorists
And even more tear themselves apart
So congratulations
We've done it
We have started the downfall of humanity
All because we turn a blind eye to those in need
Those being bullied, those being killed
Those struggling with addiction, those dying of mental health needs
So congratulations everyone
But
After all this bad
There is some good after all
Some are getting the help they need
People are planting trees and plastic usage is down
People are being educated
We are trying
So congratulations
