What's Going On?

Verse 1
There are millions of children in Africa
That are dying of preventable diseases
Millions of them are orphans
Their parents have died of AIDS
The continent is in shambles

Verse 2
Millions in South America are living in slums
They don't have access to clean water
The drug trade down there creates billions of dollars
But countless still remain hungry
The continent is in shambles

Bridge
I turn on the television
And I am always shocked by what I see
I turn my head from side to side
As I begin to cry

Chorus 1
What's going on in our world today?
Everything is getting out of control
Each region is becoming more unstable
Apathy is slowly becoming the norm

Chorus 2
What's going on in our world today?
Doesn't anyone care anymore?
Each region is becoming more unstable
Sadly, there is no end in sight
