AMERICANIZED
when music met tv is was a wonderful thing turn on mtv and watch you favorites sing no longer just a voice on the radio but now music is an amusement show video added a new dimension to this art music is created with body, not heart producers started to market sex to sell and today fetch from that same well music today is over-commericailzed But, of course, thats just another something thats been Americanized What would Jesus do I often think about that Whether on someone's braclet, T-shirt, or hat Ive seen it on key chains and even a liscense plate Hell, in today's society you can sell n'thing you create We've got miniture crosses w/ neon lights bible verses tatooed to tails of children's kites One might think with God you just can't miss And even church is immune to all of this One key point you fail to realize Even religion has become americanized. just yesterday a kid brought a gun to school told his classmates he wanted to be cool He killed 4 kids for a pair of shoes come tomorrow he will be national news people will talk of him; He'll be a household name he'd found the easy way to get his 15 minutes of fame newspapers claimed he was a victim of society "he finally found a way to set himself free" Even our lovely CNN had him cannonized all because the media has become americanized -2001 Michael Ryan Failor
