Children of our world

Where have we gotten when a mother drives her son to violence
I mean this boy he's so loving he's so caring it don't make any sense
You know you've done something wrong something must've happened
Children ain't supposed to be humiliated to the point they're letting this happen
You tried to realize idealize and shame your way through his heart
But he knew all of your plans right there right from the start
He saw his brother fall to drug abuse and violence
Watched his sister go down the gutter trying to make amends
You keep trying to make this boy out for a liar
But they've acknowledged it he's the sole sane survivor
Treat your kid right the way you should
Or he'll fuck you up the way you know you yourself would
this boy has snapped there ain't not turning back
Change yourself and realize that nobody is taking your crap
You can hide and lie you can deceive
Hope your fucking happy with what you believe

How much more do you want your kids to suffer?
Adults ain't children anymore but all they did was get a little tougher
Out there in the world there's children trying crying and dying
So please mommy daddy please listen up
Your kids want a normal life don't mess this up
They've been trying have you been trying too?
This ain't a matter of what you can or cannot do
This is caring for your children and hoping they take after you
They'll be good parents taking care of children of their own
And you'll be a happy grandma grandpa never alone

Hey mom this is your little Jakey 14 shootin' heroin
I hope you feel tough after leaving me
wondering all these years
where have you been?
I was hopin' you and dad would pay attention and come play with me
But I'm not worth it now am I
you fucking dropped me so easily
you were to busy gettin' drunk fucking dad
Now listen up mommy one of these day's you'll find me
And I'll be dead!
Hope you're happy you've raised the son you dread
You know mommy I tried to get this shit out of my head
I tried kicking my inhibitions tried to quit shooting full
You must have loved it saying my stories were bull
Now please mommy please do something for it's too late
Oh wait it allready is and you're the ones I do hate
And they'll carve "our sweet son who went to soon" on the slate
But shit you know it's your fault for making me wait
wait for you ? I've been waiting 13 years
Hope your happy mommy cause I hold you dear
If this is what you wanted then I've got nothing to fear

Hey daddy this is your little Emily
It's been so long now how long has it been?
You could have left to never be seen
But...
You never left mom you abused her every night
Till the night she fell off the stairs ,you remember right?
That is to say that's the night she died
You said she fell but daddy I know you lied
I was there dad that night I cried
I was fucking seven dad but you were so damn uptight
You tied me to my bed as if it were normal
Good they send you to prison for that dad you're fucking immoral
They told me I accused you outta shock
But that shock came much later dad listen up
I'm fucking 15 pregnant with my second son
Come on dad come visit me sometime
Come look at what you have done

Hey Pappa hey mamma this is your lovely Jean,`17
You think I've allways been a happy child
Do you even know what those words mean?
Right, every morning every night
Like a knife through butter
A knife through my chest
This ain't cuz i'm just hurting
It's cause I'm hurting too bad
Now every afternoon
I take cocaine instead
At least that shit gives my life a little edge
Did I say edge I meant ledge which i'm dropping off
Popping off, you're suppose to be beside me
But fuck look at me I'm dying before i'm 18
Every day in school they kept fucking me up
And you'd wipe my tears away and then smack me up
That's what I am to you a pathetic child with no excuse
So you make up these lies cause they amuse
You?
Well they never amused me
Hey dad I hope your happy having to bury your son at 17
I hope you laugh every night
Am I right , you bet I am
At least these kids dying with me they understand

Hey parents I'm William and I'm done talking
I'm taking my leave before I stop chalking
These days these names these places these years
Stuck in my brain senseless I know they're your fears
So take up your responsibilty
And start treating your children like they're supposed to be
Cause these kids no they didn't choose to come into our world
You made 'm come so you better start looking after them
I hope next time I see them they'll be smiling
And you along with them

Hey mom,Hey dad
I hope you can make your newborn baby happy
He's not much yet but he'll keep you steady

Children of the world stand up and raise your voice
Protect each other this wasn't your choice
You were born into this world
Never got to pick your parent
But you've got the power to be better than they were
Children deserve a happy life
They deserve to be treated good
Don't matter what evil they are
They're your flesh and blood

Hey mom,Hey dad
I hope you can make your newborn baby happy
He's not much yet but he'll keep you steady
