I see them all in cool cars
Cool everything
Mummy taught me life isn't about the fast lane
Its never about materlism
Walking in the mall in their cool clothes
Their fancy hair and nails
I wished that I could be like the cool kids
Until I saw that not all were empaths
Some without a curfew, smoking , taking drugs and chilling
Cheating on their girls
Hating on those speaking the truth
No curfew and they be falling behind at school
I was shocked to see the y11s
Still managing to pass their grades...
In this corrupt universe given special treatment or just a windup on those paying tax twice to help their families...
4 jobs in one household and still not as good as they are...
I just wanted to jump in the pool!
Be invited to all those cool places they go to
Until mama told me I'm beautiful and I  can live the life I want
I became my own companion
With my own group
We've no audi or BMW because mama told me they're bad brands who blow up beautiful countries
We were cool in our minds
Our parents worked hard and we appreciate the gifts
Even if it ain't from ysl that blows up a beautiful country
We got by with everything we had
