What Then?

I wish I could stop time and keep living in today

Just wish that calendar page didn’t have to flip away

But the seasons around me keep rearranging

And the people around me just keep on changing

I can’t even recognize them anymore

They are not the same person as they were before

Selling themselves as another slave to this earth

Surrounding themselves in this life filled with filth

Just caving in to what this world is telling

Until this earthly place becomes their true dwelling

And all their conversations just seem to mix

All these guys just comparing their list

Talking about all the girls they’ve been sleeping with lately

Treating all these girls like they are nothing more than a trophy

Just throwing them in their case for collection

Just trying to portray this worldly projection

The same one we get from the movies and TV

Living like our lives are stuck on MTV

Because they try to pass it off as reality

Telling us that life is nothing more than sex and parties

And they are showing this all to our youth

Until it becomes something we crave like a sweet tooth

Now they’re all talking about how they’re so drunk and wasted

Thinking that alcohol is what happiness’ true taste is

And then in comes the sex

Kids act like this is how the will gain respect

Just trying to mirror the Jersey Shore

If only they knew that life was so much more

Than to just party and have sex

Because our bodies are not just another object

You can’t just use one and throw it away

Because your soul has entered them and it is there to stay

For even though it is your bodies having sex

It is really both your souls that connect

And dudes, all those girls that you are using

Each time it’s their souls you are bruising

Just think of it this way, we are all God’s children

And I don’t think the way you are using His daughter’s will thrill Him

But to this, the world is blind

Because on TV, this reality is no where to find

Because as the say “sex sells”

And this just leaves us all under some spell

So we just get stuck in the partying

Not knowing what all these actions may bring

Because we just want to fit in

Doing whatever the world is doing

So we just throw on this worldly mask

Trying to drown out our sorrows with nothing more than a flask

Thinking we will find the answer at the bottom of the bottle

So down the road of destruction we go full throttle

Too afraid to lay off the gas

But we all know this road won’t last

Eventually, we’re going to hit a dead end

What then?
