In a time where people see their phone more than people.
Spend more time with technology than at a building with a steeple
A time where the government is corrupt and poverty is quite abrupt
We’re trillions in debt and it seems no one can fix it
I’m sick of all the tricks
In a time where nothing makes nothing makes sense, it’s like working at a job where you only make cents
In a time where we need change because thinking that will have me locked in a cage
All due to police brutality, being beat by beasts brutally
It’s like humans are treated worse than animal cruelty
In a time where we need reform we’ll only ever see the storm

I am submitting this piece because I feel it speaks loud, and because I had to get a final exam grade.
