My Generation

On a crisp blue morning Like any other day Abruptly evolving Into a horrific display Few words describe This event of destruction Automatically you blame Political corruption Who else are you to blame But our elected chief? In all actuality Labeled in fictional belief The cards are all Now on the table Justice must be brought By any means able Yet now you criticize Our leader's standing declaration Whatever happened To this nation's protection? Now watched by the world On satalite television Explosions and death In high definition Now shown to the world This terror named war And YOU now ask "What are we fighting for?" Freedom and independence Our inalienable rights For which often We still must fight Jealousy and resentment Hidden behind religion based hate Failed to be realized Is this trajic date? Enragement short lived, By our nation as a whole Crying and complaining About our soldiers death tole Fighting for us They are defending our nation Yet to be supported By our ignorant MTV generation All of your "children" Signed up for their job When needed they fight Now they're purpose you rob Hide in your burrows For you should'nt be seen Spineless is this generation Lacking the integrity it needs
