My Genera-shun

My generation thinks it's more important hoarding Jordans and spending stacks than racking up diplomas

DH could stand for many things, like designated hitter or diploma holder but we flip that into something so repulsive

Then get heated when the media gives us the cold shoulder

We'd rather be on the network than to network

Then get stuck searching up other people's net worth

We'd rather invest our time in Ciara and Future than into our own future

Facebook, Twitter..Instagram and Vine's getting bigger

We struggle to get by because we're jealous that Joe Smoe is richer

We get lost because we never find out that everyone is rich...

Rich with time

And we can manipulate it just as easy as I maneuver these words to rhyme

Everybody wants to be rich, but..I'm sure you can finish that line

So make a change or make change

It's your decision

They may be stupid words to some

But those that listen shall gain what others lost in wisdom
