In This World
Julia Stephenson 1999 (Texas)
In This World
(October 9 2017)
In this world
There is war
There is shame
There is hurt
In this world
There are scars
There is life
There is death
It's your choice on how you live in it
It's your choice on how you see it
In this world
There is joy
There is hope
There is time
In this world
There is jumping
There is dancing
There is walking
It's your choice to do what you want
It's your choice to do the right thing
In this world
There is judgement
One thing you do and your on the board for judgement
One mistake you make and it stays with you forever
This world isn't perfect
Nothin is perfect
But what became of this sphere we call earth
What happened to this sphere we call home
