Information Highway Overload
In my possession
Right here right now
In the palm of my hand
At the click of a button
Simply tapping keys
Institaneously a seemingly limitless
And insurmountable stream of knowledge
And information i am able to access
The only problem I am now personally finding
Is deciphering the difference between
Which is true and which is fake
As both sides can not be both right
2 sides to every story
Problem is if you listen to both
It sometimes leaves me feeling even
More confused than when I started
Trying to find my own answers
1 says this the other 1 counters
It with something else completely different
And it has become so hard to distinguish
Between the 2 even with all the facts
Because to much information
Can blur the lines and work against
You discovering either way
What you initially began starting out
To find the answers to
In the end it leaves you back to square 1
Having to decide and choose for yourself
What you believe in and think
Is wrong or right
