The Lost of My Generation
The hot sun is constantly shining, creating burns worse than fire
Always being put to work, we were more than tired
Whips tearing the skin from backs
Getting yelled at about everything we lacked
Our history will soon make an impact
From out of the smoke we will rise
From the weight of the chains to the sound of the trains....
We will transform together so that we will gain
Everyone around me is dropping like flies
Soon this generation will no longer be mine
From the dirty jail cells, no justification, yellow police tape, and our people committing crimes
We will no longer exist unless we come together in time
Mothers in front of news reporters crying their cries
Reaching out their hands asking for mine
People gather around to say their goodbyes to another lost child
Another life lost to gun violence, riots, police brutality and gang wars
I'm tired of seeing my generation lying on the floor
It's not something I can say I adore
It was never like this before
And this generation is soon to be done for
So let's stand together as one and let them know that we are one
And we don't want this war
