That Some Are So Cruel

That some are so cruel does seem sad to say
Of such terrible crimes one hear and read of each day
Many unlit streets unsafe after nightfall
For some not a nice World to live in at all
So many good people fall victims of crime
We seem to be living in a troubled time
With the social gap widening and a shortage of police
Robbery with violence is on the increase
For the unequal distribution of wealth in serious crime we must pay
But many criminals themselves are victims it does seem that way
Victims of the society they are living in
In their poor and tragic lives for them never a win
In the widening gap between the haves and the have nots the price is huge to pay
With the huge increase in crime where there's social decay.
