This Generation

Click on video for the visual of the poem!
 
It’s sad when Silicone fuels the lack of self-confidence/  
I blame this generation who doesn’t know the science of breaking down self-respect or kindness/  
Who rather break down and explain the wrong guidance/  
Mute the ears of it’s rules is a sign of defiance that reads,  
“Your blood will surely pay for your acceptance because you are dead to the youth”/  
A generation that will discrete your feet from your body for walking with the truth/  
As it refuses to swallow it’s bitter taste because it wouldn’t come down smooth/  
Quick to tell you the truth is outdated like the Coupe/  
Check the date,
It’s 2017,
far from expired/
A generation that got too comfortable under the skin of a liar/
A generation that want drive within a ride or die relationship,
but can’t pump a tire/
The realest people are up for hire they say/
But they will get fired on the same day/
It seems the hiring management already got weary from the scorching truth that hit them like Cassius Clay/
By the first punch,
Gazing at the real like dragons as if they need to get slayed/
Quick to catch them and cut their heads like High Top Fades/
And use their head to expose their face on social media,
explaining why they are fakes/
When in reality,
the headless exposed the ugly in which they were on it’s way to disintegrate/
Just throw the whole generation away/
To stop it from electrifying the truth before it's too late/
