Title: Stop... and Think

Stop playing with other humans,
Like they're worthless toys,
Stop laughing when they meet their ends,
Squashing their dreams and joys,

Stop looking at them with pity,
But not doing anything for them,
Stop laughing at what you see,
Their lives so terribly condemned,

Stop being shallow and selfish,
Not thinking about what you see,
Stop thinking of your own want and wish,
Wishing that you were more lucky,

Stop... just stop and think

You think that others are jealous,
And that's why they hate our country,
But maybe that's just us being frivolous,
Thinking only of you and me,

We don't really help our world,
But pretend to, to help our image,
We don't care how others lives are curled,
Just worrying about how we're on edge,

Stop looking at things from our view,
It's distortion in the worst way,
We're lucky, but precious few,
Are grateful for that every day,

Look from the view of others,
From the view of the starving and poor,
When looking from the view of anothers,
Do you still think you need more?
