Quarantine

It’s started off as just disease
While the government was trying to put the everyone at ease
I know quarantine was very hard
But it was also our safest guard
People we’re going mentally crazy
But to be honest, it just made me lazy
We couldn’t go anywhere
It’s like we had no clean air
The cops guarded the streets
While I just got my beats
Home learning affected a lot
We couldn’t even park in a parking lot
