The Comeback
Is it me
or is it frighteningly dizzy
how we are living in a tizzy
going quickly to no destination
living like stocks in speculation
it’s like we just don’t care
even our brother, we won’t spare
cause today, it’s all about the paper
and building huge skyscrapers
we have forgotten about the community
and are living in disunity
heading fast to no avail
moving like yachts without sails
we have to bring back that brotherly love
not like when we sit from above
and look down on the ants below
and pretend like we don’t know
that our people are in danger
and no it’s not the strangers
but the people who are our neighbors
so it is me
we have to stop acting like we can’t see
how tough life can be
so extend a hand to a friend
cause kindness should never come to an end
this means that both you and me
have to work in unity
it should be every individual’s policy
to re-build and uplift the community
