So what do you think about life?
So what do you know about survival?
In a world without any rules,
In a world that is so cruel,
If you ever thought you knew everything,
I'll tell you...you ain't known anything!
Look in the streets and you'll find people
Who can't afford to eat an apple.
Look at their faces and you'll see sadness.
They are ours, even if they are homeless
Why can't we love them as we love ourselves?
Why do we close our eyes when seeing them,
Because they are so dirty and poor men?
Look at the news and you'll see people
Who want to look to everybody fashionable,
People who lead a country for its good,
Making war, wanting everything to get,
Winning more money only for themselves,
Even if it means killing people.
When you kill a man, everyone accuses you,
But when you kill hundreds, they salute you.
And what's the difference, I don't get it?
The purpose is the same, isn't it?
They say that life is invaluable
When a single man is killed,
But they say they die on duty
When hundreds get killed in war.
So the murderers are those who lead us
And shove an entire nation in the dust!
