Life In The Fast Lane..Our Generation Today..

Here's my intake on our artists and the new generation that is rising up today. Listen and hear me clearly my brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers and teachers, there is a beginning and an ending to everything and none of us are above the law, nor are we to far gone that the world uses us for a doormat in life. We are a unique generation trying to express ourseleves and let the people know that we actually have alot to offer if given the chance, we just don't see anyone really trying to reach out and help us. They say that they will, but where's the hand, they say that they are but where the proof. This is not for the fortunate people out there who were born with a silver spoon in their mouth, however, as I quote (Jay Z) it's for the "Lost One". We don't need to hear about anymore bridges being built or seeing the lifestyles of the rich and famous on television. When infact, we are the television right here on these streets called "America". Look at us, then try to change the channel. Wow! just like I thought, we are the same info commerical that's played on every channel. You can either turn from what you see or you can finally upgrade us to "HBO". Until then listen here...

Our generation today seems to think everyone's against them, from family members, teachers, friends all the way to law enforcement. In their mind, someone's always out to get them instead of taking responsibility for their own actions in life. What do I think about this? I think that it's a mixture of both. Yes, the police are out to make trouble at times. The good ones are there to bring justice when it is due. However, our artist as well as this generation today feel that they are above the law. No matter how big you are or how much money you have, you still have to live according to the law. Alot of our artist today have struggled to get where they are at now in life which is true, however, once you make it there it's all about how you represent yourself from that point on. You should be setting an example for the future generation as well as the present. How can you be a good role model if all our children today just see you acting a fool. Either you are in and out of jail or dead over who has the most diamonds in their chain, who drives the best cars, who has the baddest chick on their arm, who totes the biggest guns or who makes the most money. Where is the love for what you do? Where has the passion gone? Did you ever have any
