                                                      I'm ashamed to be called human 
                       'cause we all stopped caring 
                           none of us give a damn 
                           why'd we stop sharing 
      
                     When we see a homeless person 
                               what do we do? 
                   we turn our heads, and walk away 
                          well what if it was you? 
      
                            or if we see someone 
                    being mugged or raped or killed 
                    in the olden days we'd help them 
                               but do we still? 
      
                       we see all the children suffer 
                             we see them on TV 
                        why do they have to suffer 
               when we could give them what they need 
      
                         what went wrong with us 
                         to make us hate our kind 
                we don't even care about Mother Earth 
                         did we all lose our mind? 
      
                       we're teaching our children 
                            the wrong way of life 
                          that it's ok for violence 
                          or to own a gun or knife 
      
                            if we all cared a little 
                      that would be a different case 
                             if we all cared a lot 
                   this world would be a better place
