Racism,discrimination,advanced weapons system Fast cars,fast motorcycles,fast life The modern day advancements and sophistications at times baffle me Have they actually made life simpler? Or have in fact complicated it? The era i grew up in We didn't really have that much choices We had to be content with whatever was around And we were In fact we were pretty happy And now look at us..we are spoilt for choices We don't know what to leave and what to take I miss the era of the '80s and the '90s We used to look forward to going to the fair We loved playing out in the sun We loved reading I miss writing letters I miss looking at black and white photographs I miss taking autographs I miss cassetes and tape-recorders I miss taking a walk at night without the fear of getting mugged or shot The kids today at times they scare me The things they do.... ...At times it's hard to tell whether they are super-intelligent or super-dumb! Computer games,getting laid and smoking ***...that's what a lot of them seem to think about! They seem to be so engrossed in their phones..that at times it's hard to tell whether they realize that there is a world outside of their phones And the norm now just baffles me You wanna dump someone..just text that person No calling or even meeting that person They don't even got time to talk their parents! Sometimes i wish that i was born in the early 1900's and i died in the same era Agreed that back then there wasn't so much amenities or facilities like we have today But life was much more simpler and peaceful And most of all people in general were much more tolerant
