It's Time

Hopeless and imprisoned

Victims of apathy

Their cries have all been ignored

We're callous to their agony

Suffering with no dignity

A punishment no one deserves...

What ever happened to empathy?

When will their voice be heard?

It's time to end this addiction and self-obsessed greed

It's time to give rise to the compassion that this world needs

It's time!

Killed, consumed, thrown away

In the name of man's self-absorption

Hundreds of millions each day

Devoured for our satisfaction
