Born to see the bright side of life
Aching for all the times of play
When the street lights lit up
And it was time to say good night
Go home and prepare for another day
Struggling with the angst of strife
Where MSM news keep lying
Regardless of the region or the station
They aren’t even hiding
Their constant intent of lying
Tired of the constant fighting
Peer group tension acting with no independence
Apparently another point of view
Is not allowed, sheep following with no thought process
Hatred is putrid with a vengeance
Penalizing children for playing street hockey
What the actual F are we doing
Words hold no truth
Politicians are focused on spending our hard earned money
Looking to sneakily steal from out bank accounts
There is no land of milk and honey
Aching for the days of seeming kindness and innocence
When going out to play with other kids
Even if we fought one day
We lived to conquer it and be friends the next
Where we looked forward to getting dirty and scrapping our knees
As we rally together to play
Just one more day
I thoroughly wished the kids of today
Had the innocence of play
Where good competitive fun filled with yells and laughter
That’s what I wish for them
A day of thunderous laughter and fun at play
