Slow Fade

In this current time, things that were rare back then are a norm now...say for example, the moral failures of adults in their role as parents...more so teenagers who have no qualms in copulating and sleeping around and doing other unhealthy stuff...it is only when the doctor confirms she is pregnant will they realise their mistake...and both parties regret like there's no tommorow...but the fact and the truth is what's been done cant be undone...firstly, as a teenager, he (or she - to make things easier, i'll just write he insted of both) cant support himself...and now he has to support two more person - her and the baby...this is just the begginning of the problems...what about the child's education, let alone the child's extra activites...and the list goes on and on...it is one thing to support yourself...its another to raise a family....i dont care if he destroys his own life, the matter that matters to me is that he will and is destroying his family's life - her and the child...life is not a bed of roses...he does not have to add additional thorns and pricks in it...and as the song "Slow Fade" by Casting Crowns says..

PEOPLE NEVER CRUMBLE IN A DAY 
DADDIES NEVER CRUMBLE IN A DAY
FAMILIES NEVER CRUMBLE IN A DAY

Here's the lyrics of the song : 

Be careful little eyes what you see
It’s the second glance that ties your hands as darkness pulls the strings
Be careful little feet where you go
For it’s the little feet behind you that are sure to follow


It’s a slow fade when you give yourself away
It’s a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray
 
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
When you give yourself away
People never crumble in a day
It’s a slow fade, it’s a slow fade


Be careful little ears what you hear
When flattery leads to compromise, the end is always near
Be careful little lips what you say
For empty words and promises lead broken hearts astray


It’s a slow fade when you give yourself away
It’s a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray
 
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
When you give yourself away
People never crumble in a day


The journey from your mind to your hands
Is shorter than you’re thinking
Be careful if you think you stand
You just might be sinking


It’s a slow fade when you give yourself away
It’s a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
When you give yourself away

People never crumble in a day
Daddies never crumble in a day
Families never crumble in a day


Oh be careful little eyes what you see
Oh be careful little eyes what you see
For the Father up above is looking down in love
Oh be careful little eyes what you see


P/S : this post is not to ridicule anyone...just happen to think of it...God bless you!!!
