The Beat

Why can’t we sit together

And talk this out

Why do we have to scream and shout

There’s so much need to be

Done in this world

Instead we take time out for

Blood-baths and quarrels

People, how are we going to fix

The problems in the streets

When we have problems

Where we eat and sleep

All this verbal and physical abuse

Trying to straighten out the community

What’s the use

When you’re battering each other

Behind the walls

This is why society is filled

With corruption and frustration

If we come together as one

There would be peace between me and you.
