To Be Or Apathy

by Glenn G   Apr 5, 2012


Times are changing
There's a new chill in the air
Few people helping one another
Fewer people care
The rich man controls the money
Of poor men making bills
Gang violence running rampant
But it's the apathy that kills

We call it freedom of speech
Instead of moral decay
When a President commits adultery
We look the other way
Modern music's lyrics
Destroying our children and teen's
Crime, sex and violence
Control the movie screen
We won't legalize drugs
Yet we leave 'em on the street
Making rich men of the pushers
And users nothing but thieves

We've used God for our convenience
Much like a tool
Got what we wanted
Then took Him from the schools
We took the Ten Commandments off the wall
And called it separation of church and state
Separated people by color
Creating an ugly hate
One day this country will answer
For its moral disintegration
To its God and His children
Generation by generation
