Ravaged Morals

Location

 

The World is always changing

 

Always rearranging

 

Culture is always shifting

 

Morals are always lifting

 

The world is not as wholesome as it used to be

 

 

 

We need to change back

 

To abstinence and wholesomeness

 

We need to change back

 

To Innocence and Self-Respect

 

The World is not as wholesome as it used to be

 

 

 

We need to remember

 

The way it used to be

 

We need to remember

 

The way it still should be

 

The World is not as wholesome as it used to be

 

 

 

As I browse the internet

 

I see twelve year olds “twerking”

 

When they should be outdoors

 

The World is not as wholesome as it used to be

 

 

 

Teenagers getting pregnant

 

And saying its what God wants

 

When they should be focusing on their futures

 

The World is not as wholesome as it used to be

 

 

 

Our so-called “role-models”  are not doing their jobs

 

They need to show kids how to respect

 

Themselves and their elders

 

The World is not as wholesome as it used to be

 

 

 

What is happening to our World?
