What's going on in the world today

"What's Going On" Yo, turn on the news, it's the same old scene, Division and chaos on byevery screen, People pickin' sides like it's black and white, Everybody's angry, wants to fight. Politicians lyin', tellin' us what we wanna hear, Promises evaporate, disappear, Rich get richer while the rest fall behind, supposed to use the right thing and act like ever too perfect then it's fine we're supposed to act like everything's fine. What's going on in this world today? Feels like we're losin' our way, Can't have a conversation without a debate, Everybody's so quick to spread the hate. Social media's got us all enslaved, Chasin' likes and clicks like we're desperate to be saved, Fake lives, fake smiles, filters on the truth, Meanwhile real connections vanish, gone like our youth. Kids growin' up starin' at a phone, Never learned to talk, always feel alone, We got all this tech, supposed to bring us close, But we're more divided now than we were before, I suppose. Climate's changin', planet's on fire, But we argue 'bout it like we're in a choir, Science vs. opinion, facts vs. feels, While the ice caps melt and nobody deals. Workin' three jobs just to make ends meet, Can't afford a house, can't afford to eat, They say pull yourself up, work a little harder, But the game is rigged, the deck's stacked for the carders. School shootings, violence, fear in the air, Send your kids to class and say a prayer, This ain't normal, but we act like it is, Normalize the madness, that's the world we live in, geez. Mental health crisis, people breakin' down, But we don't talk about it, just keep goin' 'round, Pretend we're okay, mask the pain inside,l While anxiety and depression take us for a ride. War zones overseas, conflicts never end, Innocent people caught up, can't defend, We send thoughts and prayers, change our profile pics, Then scroll past the suffering for our daily fix. What's going on? I wish I knew, Feels like the world's divideda in two, Or maybe three, or four, or more, Everybody's fightin' some kind of war. But here's the thing that gets me most, We got the power, we're not just ghosts, If we'd l the hate, put down the phones, Maybe we could fix this broken home. Talk to each other, listen, understand, Reach across the divide, extend a hand, We're all human, all just tryna survive, So what's going on? We gotta keep hope alive.Mr A R M I © 2026 Mr A R M I – All Rights Reserved
