Music as a universal language.

Many times music can transmit us beautiful messages that we should listen in order to improve ourself as a people.In other entries, I have talked about problems that are happening in the world and I think that a good way to express it is gathering all of them in a song that it is recognized around the world: Earth song, with the lyrics.
What about sunrise
What about rain
What about all the things
That you said we were to gain...
What about killing fields
Is there a time
What about all the things
That you said was yours and mine...
Did you ever stop to notice
All the blood we've shed before
Did you ever stop to notice
The crying Earth the weeping shores?

What have we done to the world
Look what we've done
What about all the peace
That you pledge your only son...
What about flowering fields
Is there a time
What about all the dreams
That you said was yours and mine...
Did you ever stop to notice
All the children dead from war
Did you ever stop to notice
The crying Earth the weeping shores

I used to dream
I used to glance beyond the stars
Now I don't know where we are
Although I know we've drifted far

Hey, what about yesterday
(What about us)
What about the seas
(What about us)
The heavens are falling down
(What about us)
I can't even breathe
(What about us)
What about apathy
(What about us)
I need you
(What about us)
What about nature's worth
It's our planet's womb
(What about us)
What about animals
(What about it)
We've turned kingdoms to dust
(What about us)
What about elephants
(What about us)
Have we lost their trust
(What about us)
What about crying whales
(What about us)
We're ravaging the seas
(What about us)
What about forest trails
Burnt despite our pleas
(What about us)
What about the holy land
(What about it)
Torn apart by creed
(What about us)
What about the common man
(What about us)
Can't we set him free
(What about us)
What about children dying
(What about us)
Can't you hear them cry
(What about us)
Where did we go wrong
Someone tell me why
(What about us)
What about babies
(What about it)
What about the days
(What about us)
What about all their joy
(What about us)
What about the man
(What about us)
What about the crying man
(What about us)
What about Abraham
(What about us)
What about death again
Do we give a damn

Problem-Solution Paragraph

Problem: In these moments there are a lot of people that are dying because of hunger. This fact is happening in many countries, especially in Africa. And this problem,I think is the biggest problem of our centur. Governments don't do anything to solve it because they don't want to, so poverty is caused by greed. I can't understand how people can live with lots of money while others dying because they don't have anything, it's horrible.


Solution: There are solutions to this problem. One solution is sharing, among poor countries, part of the resources that rich countries have. Thus, we would have equal countries.Other solution would be give money to homeless or people who need it. And the most important thing: greed must disappear because each person is important.
