Toxicity

 
Wars, starvation, racism, hatred, cost of living going up
Magazines, movies, social media, always trying to go viral
Disease, ignorance idiocy, triggered people all around
Poverty, drugs, injustices, society on a downward spiral

With the world constantly changing we get fearmongers
It seems doomsday has been lingering for centuries
Switch the channel or just keep on scrolling, go for a walk
Phones lights up trying to sell me some other accessories

Everyday we get bombarded by all this technology
Sometimes it feels like information overload
And when I encounter supposed intelligence
Is it real? Is it fake? I don’t want to take the wrong road

I hate to make snap decisions based on half truths
The world seems to be filled with so much negativity
Half of what I see seems to be garbage and refuse
But now I think I’m drowning amidst all this toxicity
