What do you think this poem is about?

Take the High road: to the Youth and Young Adults

fighting is so stupid
im so tired of hearing about it and seeing it every single day
you think its cute but its really not
you make yourself look really dumb
get a life
nobody is your personal punching bag
you are just so miserable and so full of self-hate
what do you have to prove?
if you are so big and bad, join the army, and go fight in Iraq
if you have that much aggression you need to put that into something productive
like sports or reading a book, or pick up a hobby or trade
and all yall sittin around watchin it and talking about it and encouraging it - youre just as stupid
you wanna be the best?
be the best in school. be the best on the field. be the best on the court. think about tomorrow. do something with your life.
