Welcome To Today's World

Varun Chettri 2004 (India)

Welcome to today's world
where brothers kill each other
Just for power and money.

Welcome to today's world
where siblings sacrifice
each other For wealth.

Welcome to where
blood is no longer
thicker than water

Welcome to where
everyone Is praised
for doing bad things
and is shamed
for doing right

Welcome to where
loosing a Phone
is much more important
than loosing a Life

Welcome to where
having a partner is
more important
the being educated

Welcome to where
your enemies
are masked as your Brothers

Welcome to where
people blame
witchcraft for
their Mistakes

Welcome to where
young Girls
are subjected to rape

Welcome to where
People are killed like
insects Everyday

Welcome to where
Cops and Criminals
are on the same team
fooling everybody else

Welcome to where
speaking the truth
is a sin
and lying is right

Welcome to where
being a Gangster
is a trend

Welcome to where
Teenagers dedicate
themselves to alcohol

Welcome to where
People sell their dreams
to Drugs
and drown their Future
in a pool of alcohol

Welcome to where
being a Drug addict
is an inspiration to others

And welcome to where
My tears bring Joy
and satisfaction to
my enemies
