The Beat(en) Generation

Worrying times still.

The The, seemed kind of apt: 

When you cast your eyes upon the skylines of this ...
Once proud nation

Can you sense the fear and the hatred
Growing in the hearts of its population?
And our youth, oh youth, are being seduced
By the greedy hands of politics and half truths
The beaten generation, the beaten generation
Reared on a diet of prejudice and misinformation
The beaten generation, the beaten generation
Open your eyes, open your imagination
