Now What Are We Going To Do?
Society says that what we do is wrong
Their thoughts intermingle subconsciously in our minds
Who’s to say what is wrong and what is right?
The pills dairy doe-boy in the white collar preaches conservative ways to the Americans
Aren’t we as Americans have such rights to freedom and to choose our own lives?
If life was a book…
Aren’t we the authors?
To do, to see, to love as we please
To whom we choose as our true mate
Who has the grounds to discriminate?
Would every chapter be of hate?
Of different generations blaming those under the slate
And before their six feet decent
They beg for forgiveness of which they repent
Why should I look like you?
Smell like you
Think like you
Be like you
If we were all alike…
The same word repeated over and over again
What word would that be?
Ignorance… ignorance
What’s an open mind with segregated thoughts?
Filtering out what society says is proper to our youth
The youth holds innocence
Blind of color, sex, and hate
Why feed them the propositions of those under the slate
Is the ultimate goal of life to have money?
Does money equal happiness?
Yes it feeds our mouths but…
You can’t but love, your intelligence, or the power to control your own life
Cali-greens feed your soul
Dead-presidents feeds your
Power
The power to control those under you
Your entertainment…
Is what the media shows
You’re mesmerized by the action of the unfortunate
People killing each other over things you take for granted
While you watch you read what’s in the next chapter
Time to pity
Now that you have been fed
Your time is coming…
Start forgiving…
So you can reach your holy ground
Say that you were wrong
Blame those who fed you
You had all the power
But not enough
To stand up
For what you thought was right
Is this our destiny?
I don’t know?
Look in the prelude of your life…
