When you're young, you never notice what's going on
What's happening outside
In the life you have never lived
When different origins say how bad life can be
Nobody ever notices
Nobody ever cares.
"You must think yourself so special," people would say, "So lucky,"
I look up and say "No."
You see, I don't, I never think myself special
And I never see myself as lucky
To have all that I have
Because when I see others so poor
So lonely
It makes you want to be in the situation.
Some people never listen
When you say you care
They laugh in your face,
Say you don't mean it, they say you're a wimp,
You're a loser
For wanting to help the people that don't help us
Because the more we help, the more they want
People say they're selfish
They're unreal.
But it's not true though
We maybe are the most luckiest
Some people would believe that
Some people wouldn't,
It's part of life,
Part of the adventure of being curious
About the world we live in
But the facts are... People don't give a care.
But all I know is
There's another land out there
Another place that no one cares about
No one sees the bad side to it
They think the world is wrapped in cotton wool
That nothing bad can happen to any other place in our world
That's a lie.
