Nowadays

by Rayan Fareed

In a way I have became cynical…. but I guess nowadays its just a pass code
To a life where the past has been set to explode
In the face of the cluelessley unforgiving present
You see nowadays I’d rather get-out than stay … there ain’t much to live or die for
And it’s not really worth it going through this nonsense ..
Is this thinking outside the box or just going out of context … we live in an age where the people hail a convict
Or follow the daily life of what could be a prostitute….CONDEMNED to a life of servitude
Or brainwashed and infueled by the media or the news…
Nowadays, all we see is crackheads and booze not knowing they willingly chose to lose
Battelling became a phrase to describe the used to be expressive dancing
While the term fucking replace the meaning of the word loving and romancing
What ever happened to that soulful moonlight chanting which represented a culture
Nowadays these fools be rapping about shit aint even worth having
And whats really sad is ….. these masses thats clapping
HOW HUMILIATING AND DEGRADING that nowadays
Pockets be thicker than brains when books should be thicker than chains
In exchange they replaced knowledge with cocainemost of us died and will die in vain
While the rest are looking for whom to blame oh what a shame
Depression,helplessness and anger your days are all one in the same
While nowadays nations are revolting sculpting their own history
As we sit idle only to complain when they insult our religion
But i remember a few weeks back it was muslims who burned down the bible
In our nation today little girls dream of not getting killed instead of walking down the aisle
Boys learn how to reload and fire RPG’s instead of their abc’s while we sit back and send our
Likes share and OMG’S … NIGGA PLEASE ….
Nowadays are the days where the good is deceased and so long to religion
There is nothing but a man made creed that controls both poverty and greed
And still rides on the back of its shiny steed ….

This world has CHANGED INDEED
