I'm scared to death
Of tryin to raise a seed
How do grow a flower
In soil over-run by weeds
How long will they survive
The spread of disease
Always the same shit
So I seem to belive
That it might it pointless
So why do we try
Before I finish this rythm
Another kid's gonna die
We got people takin drugs
Just to get by
Searchin for the release
That will allow them to fly
And I can't take it
It's still fucked up
This world is paid for in blood
And it's still not enough
Our sons fall victim
To a system unjust
While the media teaches
Our daughter's to be sluts
WAKE THE FUCK UP!!!!
These are our sons
These are our daughters
If this world gets hard
That just means we fight harder
Cause this world's not for us
It's for the future, for the kids
So we must assure them
A better place for them to live
Do what we must
To leave a better place to live
But in a world full of sin
It's kind of hard to be positive
But still I rise
Still I shine, still I try
Still I fight
Still bleed, still I die
Still I know that
They could never ever stop the Peace
The hand of God
Is about the only thing stopping me
So still I preach
Still I speak, still I teach
Still I think
Still I pray, still I reach
Still I try for something
Better then this world we're in
My life's work will not
Be justified by dividends
This ain't how it ends
So homie keep your faith
Our time is near
But that don't mean that we just sit and wait
That means we stand tall
Even when we're in the face of hate
That means we rise up
Over come and sieze our fate
I dig your alarm clock Bro!!! Keep up the fight!
I LOVE THIS!!!! Great work!!! I truly enjoy the content and your point of view here- I definitely think that many people in this world need a wake up call... nice write... :-)
