Witness this decadence of humanity!
In the hands of the soft hearted, look at this calamity,
From fighting wars with nerves of steel to being scared of pieces of paper,
Witness this monstrosity!
From holding character steadfast and true,
In each heart, affection and simplicity grew,
What did we put in the potion of this new age of youth,
allowing such fear and greed to brew.
What are you so proud of! what has made you so distinguished!
You shall conquer and make your ancestors proud! Has that fire been extinguished!
Did the soldiers covered in blood in the muddy trenches shed a tear in the face of bombs and bullets?
Has such hardiness been relinquished?
You shall drown and die in your luxurious indulgence,
No matter how many material desires you fulfill, more shall appear in abundance.
You can go about days and years taking the easy route,
Your doom shall arise from this willful negligence.
Are those days gone, where walked the great with unwavering discipline,
Dutiful, self restraint, is it too difficult to imagine!
Where warriors marched on battlefields laden with arrows fearless,
Victory in their hearts, lives on their swords and death for fate to determine.
Glued to addictions offering temporary pleasure,
Ignoring the rugged path of self knowledge, blind towards true treasure.
Whining and complaining, avoiding and crumbling,
From the most petty issues taking the most immense pressure.
Hearts and minds as soft as their limbs and wills as weak as their thoughts,
Under the soil of comfort lies the grave of warriors where value and character rots.
Time slips through without physical and mental ascend of these ignorant beings,
For to do they have less, to think they have lots.
