And We Stand By...

I scamper, I crawl as I hear voice
cry out in vain it seems
sounds under duress, full of stress
confronted with inhumanity

An indifference to those less fortunate
"I got mine", now "why should I care about you?"
politicians feign outrage at military adventures
as if that money would be redirected to their plights

True what they say you don't have to like another
to feel connected and moved to help
agape love we are talking about
stands the test of time

So have fun with that disposable income
play from day until well into the night
and when you have concluded there maybe other priorities
you will have company
