World No More
Greetings I come from Earth
I come from a world of love and hate
Where escape was a twist of fate
Where death was food for the living
Where giving was the gift unheard
I come from a world of bridges that divided
And where rivers were just streams where chemicals hided
I come from a world where skies were stools for pollution
And jails were the only solution
A world where the contribution is murder
And youth is the voice unheard
I come from a world of kings and presidents
Where no evidence is the truth control
Freedom of soul
Cold as the days turn old
I come from a world no more
I come from a world of rich and poor, fat and famished
Where children starve as others carve in a holiday meal
I come from a place where toys like guns and knives
Are gifts to a child's heart
A place where they taught you to believe in Santa Claus
But never taught you to believe in yourself
I love you self
I come from a world of order and disorder
Where crossing borders meant shot on sight
Where safety was night from a gunman's sight
I came to shed light
Couldn't we all get along?
I come from a world, I come from a world no more
I come from a world where millions marched
And sang songs to a different drummer for 200 summers
A world of poverty and majority
One line for minority and last priority
Secret sororities and membership only
Where elders die lonely
I come from a world where walls were torn while graves were
formed
Global warming was the warning that the last days were near
But no-one could hear in their ignorance
Only what you wear
Poisons coloured your hair and put holes in the atmosphere
Ozone layer
I don't wanna be a player no more
Where all you worried about was the score
I come from a world, I come from a world no more
I come from a world of love and hate
Where escape was a twist of fate
Where death was food for the living
Where giving was the gift unheard
I come from a world of bridges that divided
And where rivers were just streams where chemicals hided
I come from a world where skies were stools for pollution
And jails were the only solution
A world where the contribution is murder
And youth is the voice unheard
I come from a world of kings and presidents
Where no evidence is the truth control
Freedom of soul
Cold as the days turn old
I come from a world no more
I come from a world of rich and poor, fat and famished
Where children starve as others carve in a holiday meal
I come from a place where toys like guns and knives
Are gifts to a child's heart
A place where they taught you to believe in Santa Claus
But never taught you to believe in yourself
I love you self
I come from a world of order and disorder
Where crossing borders meant shot on sight
Where safety was night from a gunman's sight
I came to shed light
Couldn't we all get along?
I come from a world, I come from a world no more
I come from a world where millions marched
And sang songs to a different drummer for 200 summers
A world of poverty and majority
One line for minority and last priority
Secret sororities and membership only
Where elders die lonely
I come from a world where walls were torn while graves were
formed
Global warming was the warning that the last days were near
But no-one could hear in their ignorance
Only what you wear
Poisons coloured your hair and put holes in the atmosphere
Ozone layer
I don't wanna be a player no more
Where all you worried about was the score
I come from a world, I come from a world no more
