I realised it´s a shock, but
„Happiness comes from within“
is a lie, and
„Money will make me happy“
So in 30 years I will tell my children
they are not the most importent thing in my life.
My employer will know that
I have my priorities straight because
work
is more important than
family
I tell you this
Once upon the time
families stayed together
but this will not be truth in my ear
this is a quick fix society
Experts tell me
30 years from now I will be celebrating the 10th anniversery of my divorce
I do not concede that
I will live in a country of my own making
In the future
Enviromental distruction will be the norm
No longer can it be said that
My peers and I care about this earth
It will be evident that
My generation is apathatic and lethargic
It is foolish to presume that
There is hope.
And all of this will become truth unless we choose to reverse it.
There is hope.
It is foolish to presume that
My generation is apathatic and lethargic
It will be evident that
My peers and I care about this earth
No longer can it be said that
Enviromental distruction will be the norm
In the future
I will live in a country of my own making
I do not concede that
30 years from now I will be celebrating the 10th anniversery of my divorce
Experts tell me
this is a quick fix society
but this will not be truth in my ear
families stayed together
Once upon the time
I tell you this

I have my priorities straight because
My employer will know that
they are not the most importent thing in my life.
So in 30 years I will tell my children
„Money will make me happy“
is a lie, and
„Happiness comes from within“
I realised it´s a shock, but
I can change the world and I refused to belive that. I´m part of a lost generation.
