Humanity horrors

So many monsters hidden in the dark 
Yet it’s the people ripping me apart 
Seen as only paper in their eyes
Ripped crumpled and thrown aside 


Rumors and lies float around school
Talking crap only makes you cool 
Being nice means you have no friends
When will this deadly cycle end 


Social media claims it's right
So many thoughts keeping me up at night 
Tossing and turning back and forth 
It's up to you to save the earth 


Polluted, evil ripped apart 
Follow your brain not your heart
Sexism, racism, no one's safe
traffickers, and those who rape


Living in a world so ruined and wrong 
Yet so many growing in it still so young. 
School shootings on the news 
It's all about who has the most views 


Terrorist attacks then off to battle
Jump on the horse, hop in a saddle 
Soldiers fighting far away 
Little girls begging their dads to stay 


Sitting in class my mind is racing 
So many dreams I keep on chasing 
To travel abroad but that's not safe 
To get my own house and find my own place 


Keep the doors locked, don't walk at night 
You have to learn what's wrong and right 
Depression, anxiety, dealing with trauma
Lack of sleep, can't handle your drama 


It's not hard just to be kind 
You might be shocked at what you find 

We are so much stronger when we stick together 
Put a smile on no matter the weather 

So much to do so little time 
So many jobs we must assign 
Clean up the earth and humanity in one 
We can not stop until we're 

Step by step and hand in hand 
We can still clean up this wasteland 
Pick up some trash help a friend 
Don't let this be how our story ends
