Last day of
|
The rest of my life
|
I wish I would've known
|
'Cause I didn't
|
Kiss my mama goodbye
|
I didn't tell her
|
That I loved her
|
And how much I care
|
Or thank my pops
|
For all the talks
|
And all the wisdom
|
He shared
|
|
Unaware
|
I just did
|
What I always do
|
Everyday
|
The same routine
|
Before I skate
|
Off to school
|
|
But who knew
|
That this day
|
Wasn't like the rest
|
Instead of taking a test
|
I took two to the chest
|
|
Call me blind
|
But I didn't see it coming
|
Everybody was running
|
But I couldn't hear nothing
|
|
Except gun blasts
|
It happened so fast
|
I don't really
|
Know this kid
|
Even though
|
I sit by him in class
|
|
Maybe this kid was
|
Reaching out for love
|
Or maybe for a moment
|
He forgot who he was
|
Or maybe this kid
|
Just wanted to be hugged
|
Whatever it was
|
I know it's because
|
|
CHORUS:
|
We are
|
We are
|
The youth of the nation
|
|
Little Suzy
|
She was only twelve
|
She was given the world
|
With every chance to excel
|
|
Hang with the boys and
|
Hear the stories they tell
|
She might act kind of proud
|
But no respect for herself
|
|
She finds love in
|
All the wrong places
|
The same situations
|
Just different faces
|
|
Changed up her pace
|
Since her daddy left her
|
Too bad he never told her
|
She deserved much better
|
|
Johnny boy
|
Always played the fool
|
He broke all the rules
|
So you would
|
Think he was cool
|
|
He was never
|
Really one of the guys
|
No matter
|
How hard he tried
|
Often thought of suicide
|
|
It's kind of hard when
|
You ain't got no friends
|
He put his life to an end
|
They might remember him then
|
|
You cross the line and
|
There's no turning back
|
Told the world how he felt
|
With the sound of a gat
|
|
Repeat chorus
|
|
Who's to blame
|
For the lives
|
That tragedies claim?
|
No matter what you say
|
It don't take away the pain
|
|
That I feel inside
|
I'm tired of all the lies
|
Don't nobody know why
|
It's the blind
|
Leading the blind
|
|
I guess that's the
|
Way the story goes
|
Will it ever make sense
|
Somebody's got to know
|
|
There's got to be
|
More to life than this
|
There's got to be
|
More to everything
|
I thought exists
|
|
Repeat chorus
|
|
|
