To Chase the Sunlight

Days of children's innocence Have gone a shade of grey By a society focused on the senses Overpowering the need for spiritual higher grade As self gratification has become its trend Homes, empty, gone to silence Parents gone to pursue their agenda Children have become orphans Rely on TV, movies, games for stamina Where is Bora Bora, they have no notion. Growing up with a new kind of parents Holding in their hand, the remote control Feeding on the degrading fashions and trends Eating chips and exercising thumbs like robots Can't spell a word, but can cuss at length. It is high time to wake up To this sad reality, with a world That shows such terrifying stunts That offer little hope to unfurl Let us chase the sunlight before tomorrow's up.
