The Best of Us Don'T Impress Us Anymore

The best of us don't impress us anymore They think they have arrived Their ego is obvious They believe they are superior So isolation is never absent In their dealing with us We are lesser human So many of them say Just because they accumulate Alot of paper wealth Now we look so small Just because they can now Speak with the hunters Dine and shake hands with them Now their own looks like mere ant Before their eyes They turned their back On the street They turn down their cultural values Just because they got western education They turn down their youth Just Because they own Alot of paper wealth The rest of us is now just A fool to their eyes The best of us don't impress us anymore Instead of moral values They chose to show off They don't influence our Youths to a positive vibes Of inspiration Their life style produce Alot of hard core desperate youth Ready to make it quick by Every means posible Our best influence is so high But at what cost Cos our youth are harden this days They are far to see what is at their doorstep No one is saying our history no more No one is pulling the youth back To the value of our culture no more No wonder their minds are empty With evil Money is all they want The rest dont matter Even if it takes to kill anyone What a generation I bleed yes I bleed For my generation Yes I know we are not meant To be this mentally devalued Yes I know who we are And because I know this It hurt my soul that The best of us don't impress us anymore
