"What doesn't kill you, Usually succeeds in the second attempt" - MR. Krabs


Our society has become demented
Our round world has become bended
Young teens shot for no reason
Everyday of the month
And every season
Why is our world so evil?
Acting and looking like psychos
When our appearance should be regal
I don’t know how to change
This is what it’s always been
It’s the sick society we live in

It’s our sick society. Nobody will change. We act so deranged. All we ask is justice for our lost souls. In our hearts, we can’t fill the holes. It’s our sick society.

Brown
Martin
Myers
McIntosh
All victims of the evil of the people
Being black, I guess that makes them lethal.
The list goes on, cops are corrupt, and they shoot to kill the blacks
And don’t shoot to stop the killers and the muggers
But that’s OK because Jesus will be back
I grieve the parents of the lost kids
Another teen lost I will forbid
I don’t know how to change
This is what it’s always been
It’s the sick society we live in

It’s our sick society. Nobody will change. We act so deranged. All we ask is justice for our lost souls. In our hearts, we can’t fill the holes. It’s our sick society.

Stop the violence
Stop the madness
Stop the hate
Stop the shooting
Stop the killing
STOP THE EVIL!
It’s all going to lead us nowhere
I don’t know how to change
This is what it’s always been
It’s the sick society we live in

It’s our sick society. Nobody will change. We act so deranged. All we ask is justice for our lost souls. In our hearts, we can’t fill the holes. It’s our sick society.

This is amazing! It says what a lot of people are thinking, but most are just not confident enough to say it, much less write it out.

To love is to be vulnerable; Triumph is born out of struggle; We notice shadows most when they stand alone in the midst of overwhelming light.

Oh, geez Luis. This incredible and phenomenal and powerful; this perfectly puts or describes how societys sadly, is that. A sick society; and it pains me to say that, to be honest. It saddens me that is how our socitey is now, for 'tis true. But I think there's still hope, hope is always there. You really do have such a talent and greatness and light in you; I woudn't be surprised if you became famous and even greater because you are great now. You have such a talent and light and greatness in you; and you are a powerful and amazing, talented writer and person. 'Tis true, because it is. Thank you so much, my friend! For sharing this. I hope more people read this. :)

Memento Mori- It means that nothing lasts forever, no one is immortal, sooner or later you will die and things will come to an end. It also helps you realize that while you are living you should do the most with your life, live life to the fullest.

Wow... Just amazing, I really can't believe that a teen wrote this, not because I think an adult wrote it for you, but because it's on par with Eminem's rap and Dr.Dre, Lil Wayne, many of some of the best rappers and song writers out there.  And the thing is that this is about stuff that happens in the real world and has happened recently.  It's all incredibly impressive.
