I was in a meeting for my work, and I started to tune out of the conversation when I began to write on my paper. This is exactly what it said.

Everybody get down
Gunshots all around
Bullets flying in the air
Run if you care
For your lives
And your children too,
Did they survive
Or what did you do?
Look at what's been done
Disaster has won
Young blood has been spilled
Our own have been killed
None survived
They're all dead
Even wives
Can't procreate
Go on, save yourselves
Go on and fight back
Vengeance best served cold
These are our children
Fighting left and right
Rebelling against us
Taking their own lives
With guns and needles
They break their own veins
Ignorant people
This is life or death
This isn't the land of opportunity, it's the land of competition.
