Youths

If you want a better country, invest in the youth!
How'd they?
They're covered with flesh of greed.
They will satisfy.

If you want drugs to be eradicated, Stop allowing it in the country. 
How'd they?
They too will have to be drugged before they notice they're killing the youth.

Read, Read as my pen bleeds.
I won't stop penning what I'm seeing that troubles my spirit.
With my words like arrow I'll fight and set things right.
