Screaming, Crying, Fighting.

Location

We are born screaming, crying, and fighting for life.

We are a generation born into a world full of problems our parents have created

and we are the ones expected to fix them.

We are the ones blamed for being ignorant

when ignorance is all we've ever been taught.

We're so used to blaming others for our problems

because it's all we've ever witnessed.

The adults we look up to blame the rest of the world for the hardships they go through.

They don't realize that they could change these things.

Instead, they teach us to do the same:

Blame.

It's an endless cycle, so it seems.

But it doesn't have to be.

We are born screaming, crying, and fighting for life.

If we want something to change, we can't expect anyone else to do it for us.

In a few years, we will be the ones running this world.

We could make it or break it.

It is our choice.

We are a self destructive generation

born into a broken nation

that we are expected to shape.

It is time for us to stand up for ourselves,

because no one else is going to.

We are a generation born into a world full of problems,

and we are the generation that will fix them.

We are born screaming, crying, and fighting for life.

Now we must scream, cry, and fight for what's right.
