Broken Opinions and Dreams

by


Kids of all ages, broken opinions and dreams
we'll be worse off than it possibly seems

we're inside a prison with constant rain
it's showering acid; it's melting my brain

our real thoughts are gone and we're forced to conform
this place is to brainwash, not to inform

they're about to destroy the minorities
they're being replaced with too many authorities

you may think I don't care, but I just don't want to know
I'm actually smart, but they label me "slow"

there's so much more interesting information
we are the leaders of the next generation

they don't understand that we're worth so much more
but they don't care; they're forced to ignore

I hope that someday, they'll realize their lie
and aknowledge our dreams before they just pass us by
