Look how far we've come along
When talking is substituted
With new found technology
When the animals who feed us
Are slaughtered inhumanly
For a cheap source of food
When the forest that host
The last animals alive
Are being cut down
When the oil that is made
Through thousands of years
Are ****** dry in a matter of days
When morals no longer come into play
And we turn on each other
For a couple of bills
When every one is judged
By the place they grew up
As if they had a choice
When moms and dad's
No longer have a living
Because they've been fired
And forced out of their homes
When we send out troops
And **** our men
So they can fight over
What's not even ours
When books are no longer read
And poems no longer recited
Because kids these days
Do not appreciate intelligence
When the city is so busy
Beauty is overlooked
And when smiles are no longer smiled
And laughs no longer laughed
Because kids are growing up to fast
Look how far we've come along
