Hunger Pains

Hunger is a jail, where innocent children dwell.
It’s like they fell, into a bottomless well, a living hell.
Hunger screams, a silent violence unseen.
Hunger means, never living your dream.

[Bridge]
Hungry children can’t think or learn,
or reach their human potential.
Hungry children have nowhere else to tum,
but to those of us who know what is essential;
to the hearts who realize and hear the cries
There’s children with the hunger pains.

Hunger is murder, by a system that is ruled by greed.
Hunger is the gutter, along the streets of poverty,
right here in front of you and me.

We must build a bridge, a just harvest of food
wherever hunger does fall.
With such a basic need, someone must feed.
What you do for the least, you do for us all;
everyone must answer the call
of the children with hunger pains.

We’ll build a bridge, a just harvest between
the hunger and everyone else.
Such a basic need, someone must feed.
Helping them will even strengthen yourself;
all of us must act to spread the wealth
to the children with the hunger pains,
wherever hunger remains.
