What happens to the youth when it all becomes diluted?
What happens to our oceans when they all become polluted?
when life becomes so congested,
our souls never rested,
information is poisoned and never contested.
When everything is down to a science,
and no one has a single train of thought,
every idea conceived is simply store-bought,
no creation, no recreation
parks,
no lights just dark, no flames just a glimpse of a spark.
This whole world is based on a blueprint, a drawing, a schematic,
and people get carried away with no sense of when to panic,
someone has to address these issues,
thinking of our nation with a box of tissues,
America I miss you!
or how I once remembered you as an adolescent,
only now it’s evident you are no longer innocent,
and maybe you never were.
but for the sake of the youth
live and tell the truth
you are not smooth, nor are you cunning,
you have everyone running,
more importantly consuming,
and while for some flowers are blooming,
others are wilting,
some feeling above it all, others feeling guilty…..
until proven innocent.
All the court trials, all the pedophiles, all the crocodiles,
somewhere along the lines you probably created them,
from a nation that doesn’t condemn anything,
and takes everything except freedom of speech and profanity,
disregarding the youth.
An eternity of exploiting other races,
is it any surprise of the looks on our faces,
just to get ahead, but where are we now?
We were never asked to be born into a country full of debt,
I never desired to bleed when I was born to sweat,
and I never cared about how I lived,
only how we live,
and I want us to live good,
so how about addressing that 6.5% in deep poverty in the hood,
investing in our own personal livelihood’s
how about a little less money spent on National Defense,
and a little less worry about those hopping the fence,
and focus on educating the youth,
competition is irrelevant and unity is the basis,
and in order to come to some level of understanding,
we need to see some traces of effort
America your time has come to lead by example…….
for the youth!
