Worlds Are Forsaken
WORLDS ARE FORSAKEN
Mama sings those same old songs
Babies crying waving their hands
Elder's seniors being left alone
Worlds are forsaken
Teens vying for affection
Having no mind for correction
Disbelieving, misbehaving is their direction
Worlds are forsaken
Boys, teens pull up your pants, stand
Girls, teens pull down the hems of your dress
there's no need for me to see your middle/upper thighs..
Children open your eyes
Worlds are forsaken
Grandma and Grandpa vying for affection
Being left alone sings those same old songs
Now led to crying waving their hands
Disbelieving, is now their direction
People open your eyes
Worlds are forsaken
