Welcome to the world,
The only place where a man can get an affection is from prostitute that he pays,
Because he knows that that's the only way he will be treated as if he matters,
He goes because he knows that money is the only currency that people understand,
Where going to a psychologist is a better option,
But he knows the prostitute offers something more,
Something deeper, which is no judgement,,
And if he doesn't want he doesn't have to see her again,
He doesn't have to because there are millions like her out there,
Ah, its a doggy doggy cruel world out there.
Welcome to the world where beauty is based upon the number of likes your get on social media,
Where young girls go to boost their confidence and get objectified in the name of freedom of expression,
The only place where nudity and sex sells faster than free education,
because whats a book worth,in comparison to a few hours of inflated ego by some random stranger,
Absolutely nothing and blissful at best!!!
Because what's self worth if it isn't worth anything,
Because a bit of popularity and skin will open doors,
And give you opportunities that the so called "modest" would never accept.
And if they reach those like quotas the surgeons office is always open,
Where they are tuned like cars and upgraded with the latest in silicon technology.
Welcome to the only place where people have exchanged family for the internet,
The worldwide web that connects us to people in different parts of the world only to alienate us from those that are close to us,
We have given up nature to sit in front of a laptop,
Just so that we can Netflix and chill,
Because what else is there for us to value and other than that which others can offer,
Because we have mastered the art of taking and forgotten the art of giving.
So welcome to the place of fake originality,
where most are just copies of random stolen personalities,
Where we lie to ourselves that we are for "morality,"
Yet we are just privileged people who haven't been desperate enough to be immoral,.
A place where we are consumed by consumerism and advertisement,
And groomed to want things that we don't need,
That big house with 10 bedrooms, 7 of which that you will never use,
except for the day your relatives come to your funeral and have to stay because they stay far,
But then again someone has to profit,
because you also bought a car worth five years your salary,
Because you are in a size measuring contest with your neighbor,
instead of helping each other,
But hey, I won't judge I have my own demons to fight,
Hence I will not put myself in good light because I am part of the problem,
But what else I can do?
Welcome to the world and we are its inhabitants....
