What Is Wrong With the World Today

What is wrong with the world today So many people have lost their way Led in all the wrong directions While losing the one on one connection With emotions from real human beings Only responding with the days trending memes Obsessing over their likes and views Censorship rights that are being abused The media’s fueling the chaos and lies Riots on the streets when a criminal dies Disease spreading worldwide like the plague The only thing being said about it is vague The world is more divided than ever before Conflicting countries on the verge of war Voter fraud elections current president Still don’t know exactly what he meant People don’t know if they are girls or boys Blindly going along with all the democratic ploys To fund other countries and to try and make us weak The next few years in our country seems bleak Gas prices rising, along with the unemployment rate There’s no need to work when you're living off the state Free money for rent and good food on your plate Only have till the 1st of the month to wait. Slowly coming out of the COVID quarantine It seems so unreal, it feels just like a dream People wearing masks over their mouths and noses Small businesses failing so that their door closes Unable to support their families Because we all know money don’t grow on trees No support for the military, but all for refugees Someone make this world stop spinning please Queens in school reading to your child’s class My kid don’t need to know what goes in your ass Gay pride parades going down the street Trampling the values that lay dead at their feet Americas days are now filled with chaos We all know that Biden is not really the boss Somebody else is pulling all the strings Who really knows what our future brings People are calling to defund the police But doing so will never bring us peace Life is crazy now, it don’t make no damn sense America was better with Trump as president 7/22/2021 My husband challenged me to write a rap, so I did. this is just my opinion, everyone has that right, no offense intended.

and all of those "judgmental, myopic, misinformed, involved and uneducated people, undereducated, and educated beyond their intelligence, insist on spewing their "brand" of hate" on those who are bound to a different "brand".

I agree with Mike: "What's wrong with 'today" is judgmental, myopic, misinformed, involved and uneducated people who are filled with hate!"
