Tragic Vision

In this faltering nation the future belongs
To the children in school, there's something wrong
6th grader on crack, handgun overflowing in his hand
Now he's just further demand

We search for the source and still that child is left watching inhumanity, bloodshed
As the televiolence feeds his head

Only if he knew the consequence of greed
conscious state of mind, TV is not reality

Never a victim, the role model said
Bang bang, the bad guy is dead
Always a rockstar on empty TV
[bad word]  now the child has needs

 [bad word]  they bleed
Oh beautiful for bills of green
Never mind spacious skies overhead
Bleed the earth and butter your bread

Only if  he knew the consequence of greed
conscious state of mind, what he sees is not reality

TV is not reality
