Generation Xxx

Generation *** (Another Name for Gen Y(My Generation) Beer goggles and Whiskey Rivers, Pain numbing remedies that exude depression, Marijuana oxygen and pain killer shivers, Innocent faces with devilish expression, Blood red eyes with cocaine explanations, White lies, cooked up in haste, For the aforementioned, sell your feelings for a taste! Young lady, young lady, impossible to find, What has become of “Daddy’s Little Girl?” Grew up as billboard, all body and no mind, Succumbed to degradation just to fit in this world, Princess? No More! With bitter wounds and sans support, Responds to “bxxch” labeled as “whore” Sex for poison and sex for sport! Young man, young man, could you bear to walk alone? With choreographed legs and clay molded spine? Quoting the majority, speaking with your friends’ tone, Holding onto shirttails while blindly disregarding lines, Unprotected sex just to help you feel alive, Forced to buy diapers with the pennies you have earned, From one into intoxicated night you did not want to be deprived, Came a baby by a girl whose name you had to learn! Young lady, Young man, both working like a slave, To provide for a family that neither wished to know, They scream as their dreams get sealed within a grave, Essential sacrifices because the baby has to grow, A self-destructive generation, corrupted and vexed, Generation Y, is Generation ***
