Our Youth
Our youth is diminishing on the wrong path
The media isn’t helping it creates more storm in the after-math
The government is a necessity, but used to much in false claim
Kids debating justice, the parent always left to blame
Why is a cheeseburger 99 cents and a salad $8.99
Eating healthy nowadays, is like committing a crime
Everything’s in boxes, or covered with plastic wrap
Go out in the woods; see how well you adapt to that
Everything we do is computer assessable
Why is everything so technological?
What happened to hands on, hard work ethic?
Setting a goal, and keeping at it
We are killing our world, for new to come
Killing our environment, for a bigger income
Every bodies walking around with their nose in the air
Ever bodies to damn good to care
There’s a diagnosis for everything nowadays
Kids locked up in a house, they no longer play
Obesity rises in great concern
Yet on every corner is a big yellow sign that every kid yearns
Nothings made from scratch
Vanity, has too many families detached
Everybody finds a prejudice against somebody who’s different
It takes a proud person to give a compliment
Why does everything have to be labeled, why not go with the flow?
Experience the new, the "unknown
Why are countries fighting over a useless power?
Whoever wins, will want something new to devour
Every country on edge, looking to nuclear war
Kill everybody and everything, "how is that the cure.
Families losing loved ones to fight a lost cause
Meanwhile the ones behind the desk pointing fingers get applause
All in hopes of education, extra earnings, the fight for freedom
We all are born to free will
The ones higher in demand, create the chaos to kill
From what I see, nobody will ever be on the same page
Every country follows their own religion, which leads their life to follow "that" way
Being humane, doesn’t mean you have to be a hero
Have my back, I'll have yours, and “It’s called keeping a balanced flow
Be a part of your community
Be respectable socially
Love people for their indifference
Set your mind to be a little less ignorant
If you want to fight for something
Fight for a peace of mind, "fight for a better tomorrow
Stop finding the negative in everybody else’s sorrows
Poverty is spread throughout the world beyond belief
Let’s start by keeping it close to home, starting with our own countries
Brighten your horizon, open your heart
Book smarts is great, Common sense will get you far
Educate yourself beyond the book,
Just because its legal, doesn't always mean your not a crook
Live in hopes to be remembered for a better reason in this life time
You can’t ever take back, or ever push rewind
Life is trial and error, we are the blinded
Look within yourself to find it.
For our youth’s sake, can't we start fresh?
How can you look in the innocence eyes and ever contest?
To put our hates, our prejudice and power struggles to Rest
