Grim n Gray

everybody is using everybody for what they think others are worth
good people keep ending on the victim's list
some babies die before been born and some people die with dreams unfulfilled
15 year old mothers, congested juvenile homes
parents take out their frustration on their kids, domestic violence
potentials and capacity have become secondary requisite for placement
cutting corners is the new found formular for succeeding
the custodians of our survival as a race prove uncapable
i'm in despair and i look around for hope to help strengthen my faith
but all i see is reasons to compromise my principle
Nature's gift of continuity is abused by man's habit of depletion
they charge us not to give in but no end is in sight
the television is the new recruitment tool for their army of zombies
objectivity is going extinct and in its place acceptance is emerging
being outstanding, that used to be a quality that's now labeled unfashionable
the people, we all have gifted minds but no use for them
how can we have heroes when there has been no campaign for a noble course
the labour of our past heroes have gone to a charity of ill will
gratitude is a burden that is avoidable by gratification
money is the new yardstick for success in our society as well as in church
the clergy is a mason that never worked in construction
the scenario is grim like a scene from sodom
the floor beneath me trembles as the army of anarchy approaches
this is socio-political warfare and we both, you and i are in the frontline

You are insightful, to say the least. However, this left me feeling a little defeated. No matter. I guess nothing I do will affect the outcome if I believe in Biblical prophecy. God's will is set in motion. I have one choice that matters...who I will be in this life.
