2021 and I'm approaching seventy-two years of existence, still listening at the edge... remembering the first time I heard this, thinking, how tragic. No sense of hope or true vision of a future for themselves or their peers. If You're reading this, you found a path through the crap and I congratulate you. Inspire the generations that are following you to know that life, in and of itself, is worth the pain and confusion of growing into adulthood. We were all there once, some more than others... it hurts less to know that you truly are not alone. Also, believe it or not...I'm a conservative. LOL...we aren't all poison.

[@defiraphi]

I agree and somehow disagree. Since kinda every decades has the similar blatant music and genre since May 1968 to nowadays . Only difference in todays music as whatsoever is the boring choice of words means to not hurt a certain ethnicity. The same rhythm etc... This music style was so a common back in the 90's . I call it pre-puber generation music that are in their 16-25 years . The style is similar as to Eminem, The Prodigy, LaCuna Coil, The Chemical Brothers,...mix that with some electro music and a fake live like children are singing with it to make it more credible. Kinda another band from that era was similar "Alien At Farm" used a song from Michael Jackson their title and clip showed a monkey etc...

Anyways, no real words but just hoping for the best. I came from this generation & now I work with kids. To me, most of em r babies. If they're not even in kindergarten age, yes! They're still babies. The rest r just youngens. Some of these bigger boys r like Pitts to me. Like idk how to calm you down but ur killing my leg. You're a big boy now! Plz behave "little man " & like not pretend I'm s.clause. I know I have excessive use of like but oh well, id . & I'll cringe about this in no time. But awww at little kids anyways.. They must be protected. Somexs they do make me think of how I used to work w/ the elderly bc like I done lost me a whole entire person. Heart drop. Also, no I didn't. It's just kids r so mini form, actually stuck by my leg, following me everywhere, I don't even see em somexs, lol. even being short myself. I just over look em, easily, quick to think they ran off somewhere. Whole time they're right beside me. Stick to an adult. _these ppl r gonna come after me 😭... Oh nvrmnd_ .

The more one gains in the pursuit of wisdom and knowledge, it's a vexation of spirit where grief and sorrow will follow. I'm not that young and I'm not that old. I'm 41 yet I feel like I'm an old soul... should of been born at least 20-30 years earlier, the music in the mid to late 50s, all through the 60s and into the mid 70s was, well still is the best era of music, especially the 60s. Yet at the same time, I tend to be a kid at heart. I can completely relate with Solomon's words! I'm always trying to learn something new that I haven't learned yet, or even relearn something just to refresh my memory... The older you get and the more you take in, it can take a toll on your mind, your responses become slower, you can tend to forget simple things easier. There are many out there such as my father, he struggles with Alzheimer's. He knows who he is and who we are and all, but his short term memory is just about shot. He can tell you stuff from the late 40s and early 50s... but he can't remember what he said or did 20 minutes ago, or where he put his keys... Yeah it's tough!
