Stay Woke, Son!

What's with Him?
He was hit with the Past
At full blast
In turn
Leaving Him
A quivering sack of shit
He didn't stand a chance
Under any circumstance

Face it, Son
Ya lost face
CUT IT OUT!
Not so, Lout
You'll wake
The Baby
Loud, Not so
He's already woke

Disowned by His Father
In a stoner's haze
Lost to His Mother
Through His vacant gaze
He refuses to kneel before God
Choosing instead
To take a knee
For causes that don't matter
While the rest of the World stands
Hand over heart
He collapses under the weight
Of what He's done
Knowing He played His part

Author's Note
So much has happened
And yet
When they ask,
'Whatcha been up to?'
I'll simply say,
'Not much'
