Reflection

What has the world come to when our youth can't stand to hear someone speak their mind
Amidst a time when gender and sexuality can supposedly no longer be defined
Some stand on the left, some stand on the right
Conversations no longer civil, but always ending in a fight

Where are the days when differences were celebrated
Each unique gift now just makes us more separated
Living in a country with no sense of pride in their nation
Always making rash decisions leading to the destruction of their own civilization

Taking the problems of the past and trying to prove they still apply
Woe to anyone who would dare use facts to deny
Ignorance of the masses being taken advantage of by those who are greedy
The young being corrupted by these people with hidden agendas on the daily

It's so easy now to point our fingers and find someone to blame
I'm amazed that none of you are bowing your heads in shame
If you truly want change then the solution has never been clearer
Start with the person looking back at you from the mirror
