Hatred, voilence, disrespect
It's what our world comes to expect.
Why do we act as though we're blind
to the downfall of this human kind?
Parents don't take the time to give
the lessons their seeds need to live.
Survival is one thing, living another.
To live is to love your fellow brother.
Many think that survival skills are enough.
They teach their children to be tough.
What about a child's first school?
What about the Golden Rule?
Home is where love should be taught.
But I've seen evidence that it's not.
Maybe we need a wake up call
To make us see how far we fall.
A child's growth we too often fetter
in our persuit of bigger and better.
Yet many don't see the damage done
Until they look down at a hurting son.
We have one chance to mold the clay.
Too quickly childhood slips away.
My wish is that every parent
would once again, make love inherent.
