The kids gotta pay

Why the kids gotta pay I see it's a dark day I used to play around in the sun to smile Given an inch and they gonna take a mile Compile what I really feel on a paper Way up high so I see the landscape Were capable of anything and people choose to do wrong Man this type of thing it just been happening for too long And you on the tip that im on now I wanna see all the darkness be gone now All we want now is just a bit of peace Know your a small part to a bigger piece It's not better deceased it's better alive We open our eyes Hoping to strive They tried to survive it turned black Now time we wish we could turn back We could all just care about ourselves but the kids gotta pay We could all just wanna fight each other but the kids gotta pay We could all be caught up in our problems but the kids gotta pay We could all just wanna shoot revolvers but the kids gotta pay We got babies suffering the consequence If it's me or them I ain't even on the fence I'd have to go but ima show it is that we gotta do now know Its an invisible war that's taking place here Dark forces against the human race here We gotta taste of it n everybody sick Police officer standing by when it got thick So I gotta stick right by ur side They had nowhere to run nowhere to hide I can't imagine all the fear when death comin closer is all that u hear Aware of the fact nobody comin to protect em Lawmakers neglect to take responsibility for the choices Now they gotta clean up a moist mess We could all just care about ourselves but the kids gotta pay We could all just wanna fight each other but the kids gotta pay We could all be caught up in our problems but the kids gotta pay We could all just wanna shoot revolvers but the kids gotta pay We could all not care about the future but the kids gotta pay Talk bad about the generation alpha but the kids gotta pay Kill people not there to protect em but the kids gotta pay Steering them in the wrong direction but the kids gotta pay
