Millennial BrandingA Poem by Shawn Crider
Socialising with pirates, a social kind of hobby we specialize in,
Branded lazy and entitled, well if the shoe fits, Oh, forgot only if their Jordans. Only if it isn't boring, School losing interest, job hopper, pill popper, generations feeling distant, Late to our own party, the music mixes of turn up and Bob Marley, They said they did everything we did, So tell me how the wisdom skipped. Maybe we should call a bunch of fathers, Ask them how easy the decision was, Then compare him to the son, Lets see how different they really are, You speaking bullshit! No. This is pure s**t, Unspoken word you heard straight from the poems lips, I know that you guys seen a different side, Now please tell me what size your shoe is. New slaves yesterday and tomorrow, Follow the motto kids lets all invest in the lotto, Where your tool at? You didn't leave it in the ghetto, bring it to school next time I bet you feel special, most of time they are all the time, Sadden by the news read? Except you can't comprehend it, Espanol no hablo, inglis un poco, Left the house for about 9 hours, just see how time can extend, Friends all looking different now, That's because this not same part of town, Black king just took his f*****g crown down, Now tell me who humble now! Hands up, hands up, yeah we know the ceiling, We all know the basement, metaphorical speaking, Adults seeming dumber, maybe I'm wiser, Without knowing any reason. Capitalist country with a propaganda flag, All the ghettos just got hit with gas, Rich pockets all got a broke logic, Wealthy minds really bring the true profit, Sssh! Sssh! You hear all the gossip? You see the youth rocking, well why try to stop. We might see the next Pablo, until then they paint us millennials. © 2016 Shawn Crider |
