COMICal now and then



Punishments changing
yeah no respect
Instead of no hitting
its like no internet

At least for a week
yeah no hide n seek
no catch a girl
getta-girl playing freak a leek

now they I-touch
and do tik tok
It used to be myspace
we faster than the clock

I was face took
we they came with facebook
then come IG and twitter
like these are homerun hitters

Its either apple store
Or google play
Download uber eats
to send you a plate

All it cost
is your weight loss
Stop it
We got lazy more money out of our pocket

So much drama
Pause you like commas
mailing stuff look extinct
you can do it faster than a blink

Transportation better
you get to places faster
so much sin in the world
but cannot trust every pastor

Its comical fashow
now and then
you go from neighborhood folks
to computer friends

How many likes
Its like how many follow
They only on your page
for your talent because you hollow

What you expect
they are trying to connect
since they cannot get your address
really where you at

I aint even famous
but my life aint the same yes
People don't want me the same
trying to change this

I am ole skool
like an old fool
these new century people
got me faded thought I  told you

talented as ever
I was known to be clever
figuring out stuff
like I a was a fortune teller

So gone off the matter
the future truth gone scattter
God gone mix up things
like cake battered

don't be amazed
when you see the blaze
just remember the bible
it is just another phase
