I freeze every time I see generations go
I freeze seeing technology dictate people’s life
That is based on appearances
And that spends without counting
A widespread violence since childhood
Immoral actions accepted by all
A moral crumbling due to lack of knowledge
Save parents from their little kings and princesses
Forced to obey and buy peace to avoid discipline
Teenage girls who don’t know how to dress, showing everything
A youth left to itself and despised by adults
Drugs within the reach of all, even the younger
Psychopaths prowling their next victim for a simple fantasy
A generation unable to look in the eyes
Unable to maintain a simple relationship based on trust and honesty
Unable to live without judging any difference
Great minds burning resources to afford a castle
Letting die the poorest, wasting money, even shedding a tear
A reality devoid of hope
A reality that brings a lot of joy and fear
I can only hope not collapsing in front every gap of this society
It’s by taking a deep breath that I rush to my death in this reality
