For the Stars of My Future

Location

Take some time to take a look at these

Lowlifes, hypocrites, analytical, detrimental

Naysayers bringing the young down,

While we look to the stars

Our future is closed off with bars

Of your negativity, reminiscing on the "better" days

When the glory days were in your hands

You reach out but they are gone

Blown out like candles in the air I breathe.

 

You've taught us well, things we know,

Lessons that made us better.

But for now you need to step down

As we take the world with open arms

As we try to mend the scars,

The future looks bright from the inside not the out,

So take some time and look at these

Stars that we've come to be.
