Some things will never change
The way each of us continue to stay in the race
That this world put out against us
That won't change because the change in our cup isn’t enough
To feed us let alone our families
So we take what we can
To make ends
Except we always end up in the same predicament
Constantly complaining about our problems and blaming it on the Government
Either way we have to learn to educate ourselves
Not through wealth but through experiences
I know that knowledge can't be bought
Instead we rot our minds with the vine that spoils the seed
Turning most good people into worse beings
Some things never change.
The needs of the people remain the same
Back to basics now.
Basically we need our big screen TV's to show us how to live
Amazingly the PSPS are still in demand
Technology the upper hand for the consumer
So consumed
He forgot about dinner
So here we stand
Tired fat and ready for bed
We don’t give a s***
Some things will never change
Like old age
The coming of the wise
Picked from the pines of evergreen
Opposition to guns-
Used as a scare tactic within our nation
This country apparently founded on religious war relations
Still we ignore the fact that we need protection
Yet some don’t believe in weapons
There wouldn’t be second guessing if the tables were turned
Stop using race bait and teenage angst
To create lies
Remember we must fight to stay alive
Some things will never change
Prejudice within each group
People
Swearing to shoot any president
Who comes along with dark skin
Some things will never change
Ignorance
Women are still fighting for their 'right' to kill a child
But protesting against having to fight in war
Men remain sexist
Unwilling to rest their eyes anywhere but on a woman’s mid-section
For some things will never change
Justice never liberated entirely
Because it’s entirety is too difficult to grasp
But we show up to that trial as a 12th member
To show hope that it will last
There have been
And will always be
The poor with their right to be fed
The rich with their belief that poverty is a bed that most hungry men make for themselves
Some things will never change
The sub-cultures like cults
Dragging the inner suburban children out from despair
Some things will never change
Religious banners
When you pass you read:
We seek thee for thy kingdom of Jesus is near.
People aren’t willing to believe in God
But they can believe in the gossip they hear
Some things will never change
The fine design of modern American culture
Porn- the expressive exposure to something we dare to call art
Strippers make more than teachers
Sex sales
It gets deeper
Some things will never change
We still prefer one boob over half a brain
There’s no escape
No change of date
No time warp to eliminate
No great debate
Or prophesy
Telling you or telling me
The way that it will always be
Because some things never change
