My Generation


May I tell you about my generation? My generation Is so far gone that I can’t stand to smile As I sit back and look at the damage now As from when I was a child “WOW” 2005-2013 is like day and night It’s like my generation is getting molded like clay Getting shoved into different positions The media has accomplished its mission Because porn is entered into every social network site As if it had an easy pass admission It’s like every social network is turned into a fight fest Everybody is either getting their lights checked Or seeing birds over tweets Cut the beef See my generation is a generation That has young ladies Walking around half naked Getting recorded half naked In the basement of a grown man’s house getting wasted Now parents are wondering why their babies are losing their virginity so fast It’s like they’re looking through blindfolds While I’m looking through glass Because it starts in your homes They do what they see I’m not saying its you But you have to cut back on their views From Facebook to YouTube See my generation is a generation That would rather get a first degree Rather than their first degree I’m comparing murder rates to Universities Can’t you see? Statistically we are dying Families are crying Bodies are lying It’s like no one is trying But mom you don’t have to worry Because I know what’s in store for me If I keep working accordingly Right now I’m at my university So Excuse ME! As I finish working towards my FIRST DEGREE!
