We try to grasp the divine
but all the while we are running out of time
Children around us are crying
and our neighbors are slowly dying
Look at the world we live in
Look at the lives we lead
Time to solve out problems
Time to grasp reality
We try to reach the sky
but yet we are loosing our minds
Children without enough to eat
Friends gunned down in the street
We want to know the reason why
While in our own hearts we lie
Hope and dreams never come to be
Just the world - lost and lonely
