Last day of the rest of my life
|
I wish I would have known cause I'd have kissed my momma good-bye
|
I didn't tell her that I loved her; how much I cared
|
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 the test I took two to the chest
|
|
Call me blind but I didn't see it coming
|
And everybody was runnin
|
But I couldn't hear nothin, except
|
Gun blast, it happened so fast
|
I didn't really know this kid though I sat by him in class
|
Maybe this kid was reachin 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
|
|
We are, we are, [we are] the youth of the nation
|
We are, we are, [we are] the youth of the nation
|
We are, we are, [we are] the youth of the nation
|
We are, we are, [we are] the youth of the nation
|
|
Little Suzie, 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 kinda 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 he 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 kinda hard when you ain't got no friends
|
He put his life to an end they might remember him then
|
You cross a line and there is no turning back
|
He told the world how he felt with the sound of a gat
|
|
We are, we are, [we are] the youth of the nation
|
We are, we are, [we are] the youth of the nation
|
We are, we are, [we are] the youth of the nation
|
We are, we are, [we are] the youth of the nation
|
|
Who's to blame for the life 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 leadin' the blind
|
Guess that's the way that the story goes
|
Will it ever make sense somebody's gotta know
|
There's gotta be more to life than this
|
There's got to be more to everything
|
I thought exists
|
|
We are, we are... the youth of the nation
|
We are, we are... the youth of the nation
|
We are, we are [we are, we are] the youth of the nation
|
We are, we are [we are, we are] the youth of the nation
|
We are, we are [we are, we are] the youth of the nation [the youth of the nation]
|
We are, we are [we are, we are] the youth of the nation [the youth of the nation]
|
We are, we are [we are, we are] the youth of the nation [the youth of the nation]
|
We are, we are [we are, we are] the youth of the nation [the youth of the nation]
|
We are [the youth of the nation]
|
We are [the youth of the nation]
|
We are [the youth of the nation]
|
We are...
