Where is it going?

She keeps up with the latest trends
Makin sure her style don’t bend
Not keepin track on what she spends
She has no idea where she is or where she’s been
Keepin up with the latest scene
She doesn’t realise she doesn’t stand out
Blending in with all the crowd
Black is the new black
Blank is the new mind
Doesn’t realise, Cloning isn’t one of a kind
Drinkin won’t take away your sorrow
Or fix up your tomorrows
What is the situation at hand
She doesn’t even give a dam?
I’d like to sit you down and teach you
First you might need a couple of tissues
In the world there are many issues
But you have to want to see
What’s behind the media on TV
We can all make a change
You just have to believe
But it’s not enough to just know
You have to get out there and show
Actions to create some attraction
What is behind the brand?
The degradation of the land
Multibillion dollar corporations
Destroying the people in third world nations
Everything is driven by the money you spend
Chasing and following all the latest trends
What happens here affects over there
Don’t you see, the comforts in your home
Would not exist there on their own
Would u survive drinking contaminated water?
Or working hard for just a dollar?
What if a company decided
They would take your land and devide it?
So they could take the riches and profit
While you’re stuck there just watching!
Now you’ve lost your only belongings
And your way to make a living...
So next time think about it
When you’re shopping and spending
Where it came from and where it’s ENDING!
