I am trying to show that as we move toward technology and science, we are moving away from God which in my opinion is the reason society is in decay. Now I do not illude to any particular faith, I simply mean God in the general term.

What is the real price we pay
for technology today
Everything at our fingertips
to make life easier
(Yet our families are falling
apart before our eyes)
No one gathers around
the dinner table anymore
They are all sitting
in front of a
computer screen
surfing the web
or vegging out in front
of the TV stuffing
their faces with whatever
is handy
Daddies are leaving
and mommies are going crazy
children turn lazy
playing computer games
that zap away their brains
The cycle continues until
degradation of society
begets social decay
Our loss of innocence
and corruption of our morals
confines us to an
existence in purgatory
That ends in eternal Damnation
in the firery pits of Hell
And God holds out his hands
and cries out "My Children
find your way back to me, for
mine is the kingdom of
light, love, life
and salvation
But do we listen or turn a
deaf ear and continue
to spiral down into the
depths of disparity
