It is as it is

 We dream of a world with no war

But the way the world works

It is as it is

We wish for no more sickness and death

But the truth is

Sickness and death is a part of life

It is as it is

We fought to abolish gender inequality ,gender violence and racial inequality

We got lip service and empty promises

But the way the world works

It is as it is

Change wont happen overnight

But start by changing one heart and one mind

And the ripples will spread far and wide

There is always tomorrow and the next day and the month after and the generation ahead

Time will move forward,no,we cant turn back the clock

So change one and then change more
