Neo Generation
WARNING
I have been sent out here to destroy you
CAUTION
I am approaching but I already forewarned you
I’m here to ALERT you to your doom, SIGNAL the storm
Because a THREAT’s approaching quick, ring the ALARM
See, that’s what I believe the older folks think when they think about our generation
And unlike store products, we didn’t come with directions or a warning label
See, they hinting at our destruction
And I see signs of the media’s corruption
Putting heat to our lives and our reaction is combustion
They ain’t really wrong for thinking this could be the end to all our lives
Looking at the bigger picture as generations fly we become less wise
And I can take the heat but a cold hand is a premonition of death
And if our generation turns out lost, then in the end nothing’s left
Y’all steady blaming the president for the country’s downfall but this nation began broken
This country was founded on lies but you calling it a token
The U.S. is meant to be us, the United States of America
But this nation’s full of I’s the I.S., the Independent States of America
What’s so great about a country the whole world is afraid of?
But let’s talk about society and all the things that’s happening
Why the women always twerking it and the men steady capping it?
But say God is your witness and on Sunday you Christian and/or Catholic
MAYDAY, MAYDAY
Like this whole nation’s prepared for war
SOS, God gone need to save our generation’s souls
Cause y’all gone learn a LESSON about succession, not digression
Cause this recession’s so depressing, one SUGGESTION, stop what you doing without question
Because this current generation is gone have hell to pay
Y’all steady defeating the purpose because every day is the same day
It’s a shame when you see more blood stains than dirt stains
But it ain’t washed in soap, it’s clean in tears cause people cry when they in pain
And cops ain’t giving us mercy, they relentless because they fear us
So how they call it justice when in the end they killing just us
And where’s the trust
Cause people’s relationships are built straight lies and bold lust
Victimizing ourselves, because somehow no one’s the criminal and everybody’s the victim
You say “Do you ma” but turn around and just did him
You know, becoming clones of people you idolize, like Nicki did Lil Kim
But put a bullet in his brains, so in the end you just killed him
See this generation is filled with nothing but cowards
Quick to use a gun cause it’s the only way they feel power
And women…
Instead of using intellect for spread sheets they spread legs
So instead of scrambled or boiled, the men fertilizing these eggs
Men this generation must be jacked up in the head
But if you jack up and shack up, don’t act up when you got a baby that needs to be fed
This ain’t about hope, it’s what I see with my own eyes
Cause eyes tell no lies, and I spy with my brown eyes: depressing cries, shady guys, teary eyes and foggy skies
And all you try to do is antagonize and nowadays when hearts break people die
So traumatized so they commit to suicide or homicide
But why?
We lost so I think we need a little meditation
So we start this concentration, engage in contemplation
Think about our current situation
So we can turn it over and let God witness our new creation
But there’s hesitation
Come on man, when the hell y’all gone come to that realization
Jesus didn’t die on that cross just for us to keep on waiting
Right now I’m to the point where I have zero patience
When we gone set an example for ourselves and to others… This supposed to be the Neo Generation
