My generation

My generation is the technology generation We are connected 100% of the time My generation is the "selfie" generation A generation of self love and positivity My generation believes you can love someone Even if they're thousands of miles away My generation is the download generation Music from every era is at our fingertips They'll tell you all this is bad They'll say we're a generation ruled by technology And we are, but that's not a bad thing My generation is the one being killed in the street For the color of their skin My generation is the one yelling "hands up don't shoot" And reminding people Black Lives Matter My generation checks social media And hears about news before CNN or Fox My generation uses pictures and videos To dispute the lies we're being fed My generation has the power to change the world They'll say technology is ruining my generation, It's not. It's ruining theirs.
