As I Walk (Random Thoughts)

As I walk down city streets I see heartache and pain

Police beat us down like it’s some type of sick game

Politicians seem to only care about money and fame

They seem to overlook the problems and our disdain

Homeless are treated like ghosts it’s society’s wisdom

Business owners make profits off of a lot of prisons

They don’t seem to understand our life and mission

We want peace and equality but they have no vison

Fear and hate is rampant like some type of disease

It’s easy to say that the masses are angry & peeved

It’s time to take a stand on education to keep peace

All schools teach us lies like it’s all just make believe

The divorce rate is at record highs because it’s easy

We as a people give up to fast, life is really deceiving

People lie too much; I bet you would never believe me

When I tell you that I’m happy but never completely

North Korea is pushing buttons, Afghanistan is crazy

Wars are still going on like it’s all some type of hazing

People can be talented, well-mannered and amazing

But that seems to be outdated like discos & old ladies

Muslims are treated unfairly as if they are all terrorists 

Idiots are duped like most of those conspiracy theorists 

Religion is a tool used to spread Gods experiments

Most fail with Gods direction when lacking experience

Trump is acting like a child, late night all up on twitter 

It’s almost like he does all his thinking on the shitter

Knowing he is our leader makes me sick and quiver

Racism is in style like it’s that movie Stand & Deliver

Were forever on our phones, it’s taking over our lives

We forget to talk to one another or ever hear our cries

We smile & act happy but to some it’s all a disguise

Then we have nothing to say in person & act surprised

Kids are listening to trash and watching TV too much

They never play outside and think it is all too rough 

They’d rather be on phones, video games and such

Not living life to the fullest until the parents get tough

We have alternative facts & nitwit leaders & believers

Go ahead and be Conservative & or Gods creatures

God wouldn’t hate on immigrants and non-believers  

We go to him for guidance, he’s the king of teacher
