The world today is not an easy place

Everyone has problem with color or race

Violence is something  that  happens  everyday

Guns shot are fired….everyone runs different ways

Looking over their shoulders ….. checking   to  see

If there is someone near

Their heart beats rapidly

And ,  they  shake from so much fear

Refrain

The world today

Has something to say

The world today wants better days

Millions of children’s right to love and affection

Has been lost with parents dying of aids infection

Human rights for the  children living  explortation

Poverty  ,no education  , malnutritient

Can we not come with a  solution

For every  children , let’s make a contribution.

Refrain

The world today

Has something to say

The world today wants better days

They are homeless people living on the   streets  ,

Sleeping   on a bench cover  with  newspaper  sheets

The sadness in their eyes …..they  weep  in sorrow

Wondering if their next meal will  be  tomorrow .

Looking at themselves  , knowing how they wanted to be

Hoping they could have been ….someone like you  or  me .

Refrain

The world today

Has something to say

The world today wants better days

Battered  , abused ,  women ,  searching for shelters

To protect  themselves  from the  perpertredors ,

Women’s are saying  , can you hear ?

They are tears  , they are in fear .

Together we can make a  difference .

To stop the cycle of  violence .

Refrain

The world today

Has something to say

The world today wants better days

Politicians ask “Do  they  really  care ? “

They have their country in despair

Always making promises but never see to come  true .

Are they concern about our point of  view ?

Governement    do  they  actually know what’s for the best

All they could do is argue among the rest .

Refrain

The world today

Has something to say

The world today wants better days

Who is going to give us  security ?

Who will give us better life for   eternity ?

Its  only  God with you and me .

Who is going to set  us  free ?

Peace on earth that is what it will be .

Peace then  will  mean an end to our misery

Together we could have a better  destiny

Refrain

The world today

Has something to say

The world today wants better days
