Shallow

I see these people, watching around me,
seemingly the same as me,
but it seems to me that they aren’t listening,
to a word that anyone has to say,
they care so much about looks that it blinds them,
from seeing just what’s on the outside,
they mindlessly walk about,
not caring about anything important.

Can’t they see the wool, over their eyes?
Can’t pull it off them, they don’t realize,
You can make more supplies
you can meet the demands,
but you can never fill the shallow and emptiness of man
(Drowning in the shallow waters of life)
Are they so oblivious, to how they view,
life to them is all a label,
labeling people, without even knowing them,
they only care about impressing everybody else,
when will we realize?
this shallow view of life
is going be our own worst enemy,
one of your tragic downfalls of our nation’s future.
