I look out to the world that was so sweet
Remembering the joy I used to see
Now the world has turned bitter
What do I see? What do I see?
School shootings, suicides among our teens
Losing jobs, and financial crisis
Families losing homes even their children
Walls built up high, families divide
People judging others culture, belief and color
Posterity being infected with this world's past
The generation that has not come- lives limited because of abortion
The way people handle the stress and pain
Drugs, alcohol, suicides call me insane
My America should be peace and joy
My America- where is the change we need to see
Our hope is within- our country starts with me
