Media Power

Media power
Is obvious that we grow 
In what we call civilisation  
Yet moral value grow less 
Is funny how all
 we use to know
is gradually passing us by
With out a notice
It looks like 
We sell our common sense
To an illusion
Look around 
Oh look again
Do you notice 
The fast change?
Is all over places 
Is in your flats, mansion, room,
Some got it even in kitchen, toilet
Is all over everywhere 

Media power
Technology, TV, radio, computers especially
Controls a lot in our days 
Today,
It change a lot mentality
It promote a lot of doom
Nowadays 
It affect our children mentality
To most times things we don't 
Want them to do as kids
And we sit and claim 
We are civilised 

Media power
It is a big form of control
It control a lot in our life
It promote a lot of mind control
It send a lot of influence 
It so strong that you could imagine 
Yet some one control this media
What a funny world

Media power
In africa
Our young ladies go necked
To feel beautiful 
Like a trend invoke
All from the power of media
Our young men go high 
On drugs and gun is there
Best friends in a form of protection
All from the power of media
Money rules the media
The media rules the people
The people live to work
And Pay the money 
What a funny world

Media power
If media is use to promote
More good then is right
Peoples mind can easy be reach too
Fast through media
Media is a good thing 
But with the greed of men
Evil now rules with a force
In our media all over places
