Degeneration X

We could be a generation standing for change
But we blind ourselves with hate
Evolution repeating itself, mankind defeating itself
Life as we know it is crumbling inside itself
Praying for our sins, but never making a change
We’ve corrupted ourselves in a generation of apathy
Too blind to see anything real, fighting behind computer screens
Forgetting what it is to feel, giving up what isn’t real
To be angry, to fight back
Minds closed to what we lack
Wake up, open your eyes, we’re all dying inside
I squeeze my fists so tight, they start to bleed
I beat the walls inside of me screaming, who will save me?
We justify our ignorance by saying things are getting better
Over a century of racism, homophobia, & misogyny
Praying for our sins, but never making a change
We’ve corrupted ourselves in a generation of apathy
Too blind to see anything real, fighting behind computer screens
Forgetting what it is to feel, giving up what isn’t real
To be angry, to fight back
Minds closed to what we lack
Wake up, open your eyes, we’re all dying inside
We live our lives on our knees, praying to a God that doesn’t love us
Imprisoned by jobs that make us hate ourselves and push us to our slow deaths
We live our lives with blinders over our eyes pretending things are getting
better
But the only thing we’re getting better at is pretending everything is fine
Force fed false ideals that every pharmaceutical drug will have the answer
But the only answer is, to die or grow up
The internal off balance are exported outwards and it affects the world around
us
The world is in turmoil because every one of us are in turmoil inside
