I try, i try, i try - pt.1

I try, i try, i try, and i lose But thats just what people do, Every day im told new things and it makes me so confused. Some say actions are more powerful than words, If this is true then noone has real power. The illusion of power is portrayed by those with no good motive, By those who claim to be devoted. Why, god, is this planet treated like a lump of dirt? A meaningless thing, with no real worth. All that depend on it, Everything it holds, We don't mind throwing it away, Despite what we're told. If they really cared with any ounce of their mind and heart, They would realise our impact, That it's made a clear mark. If they cared about any of the damage, Would this planet still be left to ravage? All that sticks in their mind, Is money and power, I bet they Don't care for a single flower. They say hundreds of worthless words, But do they do a single thing? All that sticks in their mind, Is votes through the slit, They really dont care, Not a single bit. I don't want to grow up in a world, Where i'm scared to breathe, Thinking about our future, It makes me heave. They downplay my worries, Like nothing is the matter, But i know, Im not that stupid, This world isn't getting any better.
