"Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution." - Albert Einstein


They say there’s no place like the city

But honestly to me it looks quite dizzy


They’re filled with huge rats

And an unlimited amount of stray cats

But yet we breed more

Because who wants to adore

A street cat rat with a hard back


The better than walking by empty cups

While they go home to their apartment deluxe

And eat their full course meal and get in bed


But how many of you have thought

About the good that you got

And then about those who did not


The sidewalks are full of stinking trash

And ungrateful kids turning an old lady's window to shattered glass

Who won't make it far

Because they stole a car

And ended their future early


And lets not forget, everywhere you go,

You’ll probably find a syringe,

From one of the hopeless who went out on a bend


Our world has ugly and our world has cruel, 

And if you don't believe me,

Then to put it simple your just a fool
