Watching TV I feel the need to grieve
Is this what the media wants me to believe?
Is money and fame what I should seek to achieve?
Is blatant ignorance how fortune will come to me?
Scripted, "reality" shows are a new digital disease
Showing me a fake life to believe
I grieve for the TV
Its a shadow of what it used to be
It was an instrument used to teach me
It used to have several tutorials that would instill morals
Now TV is reckless and destroys ethics
Teaching young queens to abandon dreams and settle for schemes
Destroying kings before they can reach for things
TV caters to ratings , ratings cater to money , if it advertised real love it'd be lovely
