"Generation" by Fundile Sulelo

Generation

Here goes nothing
They used to call us the next generation
but now we are the generation
Time caught up with us, the youth
As I watching my peers degenerate
without achieving anything in life
but reproduce the next generation
We in a war with the H-I-Virus
education is the cure, but it depends who's buying
Being biased is our worst enemy

CHORUS:
Nothing stays the same, but change it self
Life goes on and people change, oh yeah
But love will keep us strong, oh yeah
Love will keep us safe, oh yeah
Fighting to be an example, oh yeah
Fighting to be the best

They say in order to be the best
you have to compete with the best
While fighting to be free am struggling to stay alive
No job , no home , no food
Just a gun on my hand
Gang for a family and the streets to call home

Mama, I turned out to be a drug addict , street hustler
Never thought I’d be teaching a kid how to hold a gun
Man, I wish I could see myself through the eyes of these kids
The next generation don't stand a chance against these odds
Call me hopeless, if they got us as their parents
then they are better off without us
