Flood of the New Generation
Excuse me kind people
But can you raise your voices?
Your lectures aren’t getting through my ‘thick’ skull
Your commands aren’t reaching my ‘imaginative’ mind
Because guess what I’m a teen
But that’s not it, is it?
You don’t have to remind me that you were a teen
Once upon a time…many years ago
That you’ve gone through everything I have
Cause that would be an outright lie
And plain disrespectful
Sorry am I being rude yet?
Do you actually think that being a teen long long ago
Gave you everything?
Everything to feel?
Everything to think?
This is a new time
And guess what
I’m a new mind
With different feelings and thoughts
Guess you could call me human
Guess you could say I feel different about things
Guess you could say you don’t know me
Guess you could say you can’t imagine what I’ve been through
Sure you were a teen
But that didn’t give you the key to life
Don’t even try to unlock the door with your ‘imagined key’
Cause the flood would come
And believe me when I say
You don’t want the New Generation
To drown you
