In a time when the world is in trouble

People are suppressed by their financial rubble

In a time when people are dying

Those in power can’t stop lying

In a time when a vaccine is required

Scientists are trying hard with the knowledge acquired

In a time when crimes seem to have disappeared

Domestic violence has increased as feared

In a time when doctors and nurses are on the frontline

Our youth watches memes pretending everything’s fine
