...Humanity What Hath Thou Done

...Humanity what hath thou done

You were given this great earth
Full of everything needed to survive
Yet for some reason
More people than not
Go hungry and deprived

So much pain and evil
Throughout the centuries to bare
But each generation
Birthed a few brave enough to care

The French Revolution
And
Spanish Inquisition
Killed thousands
In the name of
Politics and religion

Greed and power
Seem to be the
Driving force...
They can make you cheat your brother
And feel no remorse

Blood is being shed
Even today

Because
Warfare is mans favorite game to play

Humanity what hath thou done

I know of people who act very religious
They congregate often
And appear quite prestigious
But colder hearts can't be found
I've seen them laugh at the poor
And kick those already down

My God in heaven
What are we to do
Tell me

As with Noah's flood
And the Pharoahs of Egypt
Is our time here
Just about through
