Ok, Boomer

I tried to pull myself up by my own bootstraps
Like a good American
But the straps were cheaply made
And I fell on my ass again
You said I'm "so entitled"
"How selfish could I be?"
Yo see how good your generation had it
And ask the same for me

But oh, do you see the destruction?
We were crawling but told to run

You tell me how to feel, but you won't ever engage
Thoughts and prayers won't raise the minimum wage
You collectively shit the bed and you make us feel worthless

I tried to pull myself up by my own bootstraps
Like a good American
But the straps were cheaply made
And I fell on my ass again
We played the game you made for us
And guess how good that went?
I went to college, got a degree
And still can't afford the rent

But oh, do you see the destruction?
We were crawling but told to run

You tell me how to feel, but you won't ever engage
Thoughts and prayers won't raise the minimum wage
You collectively shit the bed and you make us feel worthless
