only humans can take their home and destroy its health
instead they put above their own efficiency and wealth
they take what was given to them filled with beauty
and destroy it without a grain of integrity
now they pay for as it dies so will they
no place to call home, nowhere to stay
their one chance taken and gone
only they are selfish enough to drag others along
only humans can define one by their birth traits
their gender or race shall now set their life in place
their genes given at birth represent their rights
for not being a man makes life an endless fight
and don’t forget the unequal pay
because unless you’re male, you aren’t given the same
the color of their skin effects how they’re treated
the life they can live, defined by this feature
their rights, liberties, choices defined by these traits
we trap ourselves in this mentality with no open gate
only humans can hoard what others need
due to their own selfishness and greed
while billions suffer without water and food
others quench their thirst with mansions and useless goods
society has taught us to believe working hard will get us all we need
but when some are placed ahead from the start, others have no chance to succeed
how much does it cost for the rich to share a few dimes?
clearly too much as they never are able to provide
people collect money endlessly like it’s a game
when they pass will they lay it with them in their grave?
only humans are so simple minded to believe
their opinions are the standards for everyone else to repeat
a world filled with peace is much too far
as everyone is fighting for control and power
we’re stuck in a world where everyone believes they’re right
they want to harm others and get stuck in useless fights
because humans only care about their own place after it all
and only humans will be the cause of their own fall
