Out of Bed

CATEGORY

life

see the child who's hungry

in need of being fed

see the mother hungover

can't get out of bed

wish you could knock on the door

with some milk, a box of cheerios

a cup of coffee and a couple of

no doze

hoping they got a spoon and a bowl

people think they know

but they don't

we all are

capable of making a change

will we, just

talk about what we gone do

but do nothing

quick to call the police

coz, someone disturbed

our peace

all we had to do was just

go back to sleep

dream of tranquility

ain't no cure like a dose

of humility

to humble us up to reality

walking around ten toes down

like we're stuck in the ground

there will always be problems

it's in us to solve them

if you don't know what to do

do nothing

in time pain will pass

pour some juice in a glass

think about the child who

had his/her last day on earth

defected by birth

neglected and worse

in school having violent

outburst

diagnosed

ADHD

drawing social security

completely unattended too

just trying to

draw your attention to

the need, the crying, the issue
