Quotes,lyrics, and sayings

Our Generation

Our generation is obsessed with the idea of perfection
Society had consumed us with the idea of how we are meant to be
At first it was skinny
Now it is thick
What's next?
We are influenced by terms that aren't even real words
Such as
Baddie
Thot
Swag
Icy
We look up to celebrities who are addicted to fame, drugs and money
They taught us quotes such as "YOLO"  and "Turn Down For What"
Lyrics have become angrier and raunchier, and discrimintaing
Is this really role model criteria?
All I see in highschool is a bunch on people who hate eachother pretending to be friends
It is no longer a place to learn
Instead it is all about
Passing
Failing
Appearances
And who you surround yourself with
High School is hell
A girl cries
People laugh
She thought he could trust him
Now the whole school has seen her naked
A guy lets a girl know how beautiful she is to him
Screenshots
Tweets
100 favorites
All because he sounded "thirsty"
People aren't even dating anymore
You only find "things" "hook ups" "friends with benefits"
We meet on Twitter by "sliding into dm's"
Which lead to talking
Catching feelings
Sleeping together
And ending as strangers
This generation has lost the meaning of romance
We toss around "I love you's" like they are "hellos"
We give our bodies to people who don't care
And we are judged by the amount of people we let in
Our generation relies on alcohol, drugs and parties
We drink to get drunk
Drunk texts
Drunk hook ups
Drunk driving
Drunk decisions
Drugs are easy to find
When stressed
When happy
When lonely
When bored
Parties are no longer about celebrations
It's for
Beer pong
Shots
Smoking
Sex
Our generation has tried to grow up fast
People of this generation do not talk
Only exchange links
We are masked by a computer and a phone screen
Confrontation has turned into
140 characters
Text
Status
And if we are lucky, a phone call
Doorbells are not rung
Instead a "here" text is sent
Instead of being ignored physically
It is now just a "read" text
Yet, it hurts just the same
Because getting no message is still a message
Technology has ruined adventuring
We do not go in the rain because our IPhones will get ruined
We do not camp because there is no service
We do not venture beyond places without outlets
Too many adolescents have addictions to superficial things
iPads,
iPhones,
Tablets ,
Have substituted outdoor activities for apps you can download freely
Parents complain all the time about this messed up generation
And how we are wasted youth
But let's not let them forget
They raised us
Times have changed
Parents have no idea what it is like to be a teenager in this generation
We are constantly compared to our siblings
Friends
Peers
Surrounded by peer pressure
And mislead by people who we though cared
And even through all the bad, our generation still has hope.
