Smiling Faces

I see smiling faces,
Make me wanna cry,
People living,
Make me wonder why we die,
Everybody wanting more than what they need,
But we ain't giving what we got,
I don't know why,
People begging for some food overseas,
While we throw away our own to the side,
Bending down see them praying on their knees,
Not a frown on their face,
Looking high,

I,
I,
I,
Never wanna fall down,
Fall down,
Got my back against the wall now,
Yeah,
Uh,

Fire burning in my heart,
From the fires that I've seen,
Fallen trees,
Broken hearts,
Taking over what is green,
Broken dreams leave us scarred,
In the midst of it we plead for some ease,
From a far,
We see animals are dying,
People out her crying,
Praying for a lot,
But we never seem to find it,
We don't know where to go,
But we're trying,
Fighting for our home,
On our own,
Or united,

I pray for change,
I pray the heavens,
Open up and rain,

I see smiling faces,
Make me wanna cry,
People living,
Make me wonder why we die,
Everybody wanting more than what they need,
But we ain't giving what we got,
I don't know why,
People begging for some food overseas,
While we throw away our own to the side,
Bending down see them praying on their knees,
Not a frown on their face,
Looking high,

I'm just wondering what life is,
Tryna figure out the wrong from the righteous,
I've been living life strong,
I been like this,
Tryna live this life long,
Till I'm life less,
I been living distant,
Tryna figure out my rhythm,
Working on my mind,
I been primed,
For a new position,
And I see souls,
Living low,
Living in conditions,
Many do not know,
They don't show,
What is truly given,

A lack of agency,
Is basically permitted,
By the media,
Who treated ya,
Like they ain't really living,
And it's hurting me inside,
Cause these numbers they divide,
All those numbers do have names,
It's a shame we don't realise,
All these lies,

I see smiling faces,
Make me wanna cry,
People living,
Make me wonder why we die,
Everybody wanting more than what they need,
But we ain't giving what we got I don't know why,
People begging for some food overseas,
While we throw away our own to the side,
Bending down see them praying on their knees,
Not a frown on their face,
Looking high,
