Many lives know what it is to need
Many mouths are plagued by flies but never feed
Barren lands where sorrows grow
Pain and suffering the life they know
But even so, a mother still smiled
When she held her precious child
Even though she sees a life of despair
A flicker of hope still lingers there
No matter how hard we think life gets
Life will continue, calling in its debts
Fighting for their precious life
Against all odds, no coward's knife
When we reach life's tar black bottom
Remember it may only be the autumn
Still a winter of woes to fight
Spring will come so don't lose sight
Man can be haunted and filled with dread
Until he walks among the dead
When real pain is everyday
That's when hope shows there is a way
As a race we are full of greed
But spare a thought for those in need
