This is a message to our fragile world
This is a message to our fragile world.
Our economy is quickly falling.
We spend most of our time weeping.
“We can’t fix what is breaking.”
Look, look right here.
Our money is not what needs our help dear.
To see what needs help, look in your mirror.
We live in a world that lacks many things.
We don’t understand the joy that morals bring.
We don’t care for anything.
Look at the children of today.
Bullied or a bully, pick your way.
This will be America someday?
Respect is a forgotten term.
Instead of being your father he is your “donor of sperm”.
Have we forgotten to keep away from the germs?
We don’t take the blame, it’s everyone else.
While you are reading this you are thinking of someone else.
Look! Look! Look at yourself.
The government calls us obese and fat.
Our outside body is what they look at.
I wonder why Americans do that?
College used to be a “definitely”.
Now a career is a maybe.
Is it “What can you be?” or “What do you want to be?”?
All of this leads right back on us.
You wanted to ship your company to China instead of paying us.
You wanted a new school so they cut the man who drove the bus.
You complained about welfare, now you’re on it.
You didn’t donate to the blood bank, now your son needs it.
You bought the Wii instead of dinner, and you wish you didn’t.
You sit at the table pushing around your gravy.
Then use your credit card to donate to foreign countries.
Look at that poor man right here. He is the one who needs, Honey.
Remember when you were growing?
Remember how you thought “I will never do what my mother is doing?”
You don’t act enough like her, that’s all I’m saying.
You would love to pin this on one generation.
However, we have all ruined this nation.
We have all brought it one step closer to evaporation.
Each time we step we step a little deeper.
Each time we fall we fall a little harder.
Each time we need help we need it a little longer.
Look at the bright side. Each time we come out we are a little bit stronger
