What do you see??


It doesn't make me happy You know It hurts me To see people dealing with life so playfully When.there are so many people on the news today DYING Thousands of gods babies now are just pushin up daisies And here we are Living our lives so ungratefully Without stopping to smell a single rose, blade of grass or a daisy Treating each other like we would never want to be treated think of all the dreams that.are dreamt NEVER TO BE completed I’m watching you take every day for granted Cause your eyes covered with a blanket Life is precise And to need to act like You know it upsets me When I see so many accidental babies Who grow up without a daddy Who live life with forgetful mommies Who forget that the money can't replace love addicted to material accumulation like its drug never have the satisfaction having both parents in one household Never knowing how a childhood should go Being raised by a one parent is like going outside with holes in your umbrella Like flying a plane with a broken propeller Like livin life with one lung Like doing a puzzle with half the pieces it's no fun How do you explain to your little ladybug That no matter how hard she cries daddy isn't gonna come Your son’s heart is filled with mixed feelings and anger When he is looks at his dad and.sees and stranger And asks if all this is normal how do you answer In this country.kids before marriage seems normal And the line of kids being born.into broken families seems.eternal Why create a human being with whom you are in constant quarrel Leaving children to pay For the mistakes that were made that they weren't even around To purchase Take parenthood more seriously Cause he's not just some.boy calling.you.mommy he'ss a human being THAT YOU'RE RAISIN a member of society in with your hands you're creating So be more careful So be more aware You know what angers me To see so many teens throwing away their education For cheap fun and immature inspirations Always living for the now, never having patience Always finding a replacement for that 99 percent of perspiration If character were the only clothes so many would be naked teens who think that what quick and easy overrules any other possibilities will learn fairly quickly that life will not always be breezy and unfortunately these minds is where deffered dreams grow like weeds In life their are millions of things to experience and see and perhaps it's a personal thing but for me their are one too many unnoticed things that bother me
