ITS GETTING TO BE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE

In this day and age the book of life has lost a page
Old values integrity respect decorum to say least
What can one say to most who know not these things
And born without them raised by the f..ck you beast

I'd be the wealthiest man today if I had a dime
Of what I've given away to many over my time
Dropped all I was doing to lend a hand in seconds
And I'd do likewise again as I'v done down the line

I've risk my life to save others so often true
Its all my own father would have done and did do
I've always had presence of mind never had to think
While many watched I was there and back its true

My first birth I delivered my son 1966 on my own
And re that have done so several times no training
When some things happen they land in ones lap
Come sunshine storms day or night or even raining

But these days simply common sense almost a fantasy
Its bown away with the winds of decency long ago
Its almost impossible for me to use any form of decrum
On endless who of these things will never know
