Compassion is not a passing phase

Or a trend to claim before you toss it away

Because this bloodshed remains.

Surrounded by excessive wealth

And too afraid to realise what's on your plate

This story has been told countless times before

Yet ignorance still reigns

Their pain exists even when you look away

Because the killing goes on

Surrounded by excessive wealth and too afraid to realise what's on your plate

This story has been told countless times before

Yet ignorance still reigns

You say that it's wrong

You just couldn't quit

But that's not doing the trick my friend

Day by day they are dying for your own abundance

Stop looking away

They don't need good will

But your true conviction to survive
