Future?

What are you doing today to make tomorrow worth living?

ACT prep, GPAs and finals,

What is it really for?

They say it's for the future,

If it is, then the future is a bore.

 

I want to laugh and play,

To live the day away,

Society tells me to study and learn,

But I want to live with time to burn.

 

What's the point?

No one's guarunteed a tomorrow,

I'm gonna go smoke a joint,

And live life without a sorrow.

 

This is my life now,

Or so they say,

But what if I want it to be more?

So I can enjoy everyday.

 

I want music and art,

To run and have time to burn,

But society says I must play my part,

So a good life I can earn.

 

Life would be good,

Without a big house and lots of TVs,

I could live in any neighborhood,

If I could be who I want to be.

 

Life would be fine,

Knowing only what I want to know,

For no one knows how much time,

Or if they're guaranteed a tomorrow.
