Today's Society
I curse the day that this Earth was polluted
With jerks, heartless bastards; whatever name suits them
If I could go back in time, I would go back and stop today’s civilization from being made
We live in a world that undermines ones self confidence, strips them of identity, and
forces them to fade.
You have no idea how today’s society piss me off
I’ve watched too many of my close friends lose themselves and get lost
Lost in insults from the outside world, swimming in their own lack of personality,
Being drained of their pride, stripped from their own sense of rationality
In this world, people don’t matter. It’s all about sex, money, cars,
Drugs, alcohol, partying, entertainment, or even, if were lucky, becoming a star
People just don’t care about hurting people’s feelings anymore,
I guess the ol’ “Treat others the way you would like to be treated” started to
Become a bore.
But to blame you, my friends, would just be a tragedy
That’s not to say that this hate will ever go away, though, this continuous agony
