Seed planted in my brain

Times they are a changing, this we cannot deny.
For we use to see stars twinkling above and now just a chemical laden sky.
Our youth was filled with so much promise from the baby boomer generation before.
Taught that life is but to consume, to win at all costs yes score score score.
Designer drugs, political thugs & licensed badges with loaded guns.
Turn on the 6 o'clock news. Live your life in fear or the crowd will jeer, be afraid and ready to run.
They say terrorist, but we all know now it's always been them.
Trust no one for you never be safe, who trusts their neighbors for are they really our friends.
Look mom he wears a towel on his head and maybe we are his means to a violent end.
Well I say enough is enough and I'm going to stand tall and I'm going to stand tough.
I'm walking over next door and introducing myself cause I bet I have more in common with the East Indian next door than anyone attempting to scare me enough that I should even get off the floor!

So there 😜
