Today

get out there
do something before it's all too late
you can make a change
do you believe me?
you should.

you have the power to change the world.

use it.
love it.
embrace it.

if you don't
who knows what will
happen to the world?

famine?
pandemic?
nuclear war?

that isn't the future i had in mind for the world.

some people are so selfish.
they only think of themselves.
they say that it doesn't matter
it will happen to those of tomorrow
not me.
let me tell you something.
global warming is now
AIDS and bird flu are now
starvation and poverty is now

stop thinking of tomorrow
think of today.

think of the children whose life you are stealing.
this is today.
think of the children who have lost their parents to AIDS in Africa.
this is today.
think of the people sitting on corners in your city, begging for food.
this is today.

if we don't do something about today,
what horrors will tomorrow hold?
