The message
I got a message to deliver,
About the disrespect that's spreading like a
Younger adults, teaching the wrong way,
Passing on disrespect, leading kids astray
They're glued to screens, lost in their own world,
No manners, no empathy, it's all unfurled,
Disrespecting elders, talking out of turn,
We gotta teach 'em better, make 'em truly learn.
It starts with us, leading by example,
Showing respect, breaking the disrespect sample,
Let's guide the youth, show 'em the right way,
Reverse this trend, make respect the new replay.
It's a shame to see the lack of respect,
The values they neglect, it's time to correct,
Our adolescents deserve better than this,
Let's teach 'em honor, show 'em what respect is.
No more tolerating the disrespect they spread
So let's come together, break this cycle of disdain,
Teach the next generation to respect, not to feign,
It's up to us to set the example right,
And bring back respect, shining in its might.
