The death of me, will probably be, self-inflicted or come unnaturally. / My generation has metamorphosized to believe this ideology filled with lies, and grown to despise all things good, all things right/ Holiness is but a mythically unattainable virtue only seen with wise eyes/ And me with my wide eyes open couldn’t even see past sunrise/
Many times I hid behind my Christian face/ My black skin speaking tales of my Christian race/ But then straight after church my rehearsed day begins/ Go to see “that” girl and write Haikus on her skin/ A 3 bar poem about why she’s the one/ Taking hours to come home before the day is done/
The death of me will probably be this doomed society/ Digging pits for their own graves with their words of blasphemy/ Drugs lay waste to what remains of their minds/ Trying to convince them that God exists is like defusing a land mine/ Who am I to try and help, I’m still suffering the same/ Can’t even control the thoughts flooding in my brain/ Had to write this out just to try and stay sane/ Thinking is speeding up now, I’m like that electric train…/
And then I see it/
Tomorrows generation smokes drinks and takes drugs/ Looking everywhere for things to fill the void left by love/ Searching everywhere except above / They are scanning the sea for a raven not a dove/
This is todays tomorrow, where the truth isn’t believed/ And the generation of that time will choose to live disobediently//
