Lost Generation

I live in a generation of girls who would rather be called easy than smart.

A generaion where getting laid is better thn making good grades.

This generation that would rather be told a lie than work to fiind the truth.

Where being loyal to your homies is more important to you than being loyal to your family.

This generation is spoiled, untrusting, and toxic to the innocence of the upcoming generation.

This generation today is killing the generation of tomorrow.

But I do not claim this generation as my own for it brings me such sorrow.

 

My generation is the generation I believe in.

The generation that is more worried about the SAT than THC.

The generation that cares more about the score on their paper than the score of the Lakers.

For my generation is filled with free thinkers, artists, and dreamers.

The generation that would speak up for you rather than beat up on you.

For this is the generation that will uplift you not destroy you.
