Everybody So...

EVERYBODY SO...

Everybody so superficial,

Love now days is only skin deep

And that skin be caked in make-up

So what's the deal yo?

Everybody so shallow,

But they can still drown in their ego,

Only thing to catch ya eye,

is your refection in the mirror,

Beautiful world going by,

but you rather check your Twitter,

Everybody so bitter,

Yeah these people acting cold,

Why don't you try be a little nicer make this world a little sweeter,

Everybody so heartless,

Hearts on your sleeve is no longer a thing,

People playing like it's on a yo-yo string,

Everybody so unfaithful,

People hooking up for a quick fuck, where is the emotion where is the connection,

Why we always cheating, partners are not like iPhones can't trade in for the latest model,

Should be more like books, might be a little worse for wares but you can't get rid of your favourite novel,

Everybody so cruel,

People throwing shade and acting like snakes, backstabbing, shit-stirring, got people feeling like Sideshow Bob always stepping on rakes,

Everybody so broken

Well yeah this new lifestyle does tend to take its tole, people trying to live the fast life in the slow lane, people trying to live the high life on average wage, we insane,

We idealising these shallow egotistical, superficial celebrities and trying to mimic them,

We all becoming clones,

Where is the originality of being human,

We are not replicated, duplicated...we should see ourselves as a one off rare, hand painted,

Like a drawing on a page, not a photo copier in rage...

Malfunctioned printed so many copies of the same,

One day we will realise when it's too late that being materialist is unnecessary,

You will realise when you rather be jetting off to Barbados instead of visiting your dear sick gran....you will realise when you lose your loved ones that you might have not wasted your money on that brand new car or that Prada handbag cuz you loved it so much...but you'll realise sooner or later that you been wasting your time....your time on this Earth, only got one go around, then your time is done...why not spend it making memories with good people having fun not fake friends doing things that you are told are cool so you pretend...

Everybody so asleep...

Need to wake up, disconnect from the internet,

Reconnect with the world and the people in it.

Smell the flowers, taste the snowflake as it melts on your tongue, feel the cold, then the warm touch of a lover's hand over yours, feel the giddy feelings you get when you look into each other's eyes, not feel the headache you get from staring at your phone, when the brightness is on too high....

if there is only one line you take from my rhyme I beg it be....don't waste your time...
