Wasted
The media feeds us garbage
And we digest every bit of it
We can’t produce a harvest filled with purpose
When all we do is concentrate on things that are worthless
Social media must be laced with that cocaine
Because once you go on, it’s like the computer screen captures your brain
You know you’re watching a wreck, one that takes place on a train
And you get up 4 hours later never to be the same
4 hours just wasted, on nothing at all
Entertainment they call it, but to me it’s our down fall.
We put OUR dreams on hold, we push OUR goals aside
To tune into some foolishness that is such a waste of time.
We feed our souls nonsense on a daily basis
And wonder why we feel like our life is being wasted. T.V., media, video games, internet, magazines
Is this the new American Dream?
To watch OTHER people’s lives While our lives pass us by?
Hours on the internet in order to get a daily high?
Whatever you sow you shall reap
Isn’t only about how we treat our peeps.
Whatever we sow into our soul
Will become our reality as our life unfolds.
Everything plants a seed no matter how big or small
So filter what you let in, or with your harvest you will be appalled.
I mean we get one chance, one shot, and then this life here on Earth is obsolete
So why go to our grave with any of our dreams incomplete?
Yet millions pass away never to have lived, but to only exist.
Life is pretty beautiful when you learn to make the best of it.
So I’m not going to beat up myself when I turn that train wreck on
But I AM going to learn to put that timer on.
Tic toc..Tic toc… cuz that clock is tickin, I’m ‘gonna spend my time…..
(Oh time, how we take it for granted)
I’m ‘gonna spend my time putting my God given talents into fruition.
It’s amazing what He can do when we tune out the noises of this world and tune into Him. Don’t let your fears trick you into thinking you’ll end up sinking
Because we weren’t born to sink only to swim
But I truly believe we have to first acknowledge that it has nothing to do with us..
And everything to do with Him.
