I see the world- discrimination, racism, homelessness, rape and hate.

Children go to bed without food on their plates.

Soldiers go to war without knowing their fate.

Young people die, when they hoped they'd live to a later date.

I can see it all, the bad things in the world where they've made such a mess.

Women and men alike go to work, and on their minds is stress.

Always the anger needing repressed, always the suicides because kids are depressed.

People are cheated on when their partner lacks faithfulness.

I see many a day snort, smoke, inject and do drugs.

Many a day, are shot or locked up.

All that I see is some relentless grown ups

throwing away their money to spend at nightclubs.

Smoking, drinking, fighting, they do it all.

Cell walls, cat calls, I'm witnessing their down-fall.

Tossing your wife around like she's some kind of ragdoll?

Screaming at your kids cause you drank too much alcohol?

Is this what you want us to see?

All the rage, all the pain, you portray in extremity?

I see it every day- it's inhumane and beastly.

And If I see you doing it you've lost respect from me.

And If I see you doing it you've lost respect from me
