Youth Of The Nation - P.O.D.[00:00:00]
Last day of the rest of my life[00:00:33]
I wish I would've known[00:00:35]
'Cause I didn't kiss my mama goodbye[00:00:36]
I didn't tell her that I loved her and how much I care[00:00:37]
Or thank my pops for all the talks[00:00:39]
And all the wisdom he shared[00:00:41]
Unaware I just did what I always do[00:00:42]
Everyday the same routine[00:00:44]
Before I skate off to school[00:00:45]
But who knew that this day wasn't like the rest[00:00:47]
Instead of taking a test[00:00:49]
I took two to the chest[00:00:50]
Call me blind but I didn't see it coming[00:00:53]
Everybody was running[00:00:54]
But I couldn't hear nothing[00:00:55]
Except gun blasts it happened so fast[00:00:57]
I don't really know this kid[00:00:59]
Even though I sit by him in class[00:01:00]
Maybe this kid was reaching out for love[00:01:02]
Or maybe for a moment[00:01:04]
He forgot who he was[00:01:05]
Or maybe this kid just wanted to be hugged[00:01:07]
Whatever it was[00:01:09]
I know it's because[00:01:10]
Chorus[00:01:12]
We are We are the youth of the nation[00:01:13]
We are We are the youth of the nation[00:01:17]
We are We are the youth of the nation[00:01:22]
We are We are the youth of the nation[00:01:27]
Little Suzy she was only twelve[00:01:32]
She was given the world[00:01:33]
With every chance to excel[00:01:34]
Hang with the boys and hear the stories they tell[00:01:36]
She might act kind of proud[00:01:38]
But no respect for herself[00:01:40]
She finds love in all the wrong places[00:01:41]
The same situations[00:01:43]
Just different faces[00:01:44]
Changed up her pace since her daddy left her[00:01:46]
Too bad he never told her[00:01:48]
She deserved much better[00:01:50]
Johnny boy always played the fool[00:01:51]
He broke all the rules[00:01:53]
So you would think he was cool[00:01:54]
He was never really one of the guys[00:01:56]
No matter how hard he tried[00:01:58]
Often thought of suicide[00:01:59]
It's kind of hard when you ain't got no friends[00:02:01]
He put his life to an end[00:02:03]
They might remember him then[00:02:04]
You cross the line and there's no turning back[00:02:06]
Told the world how he felt[00:02:08]
With the sound of a gat[00:02:09]
We are We are the youth of the nation[00:02:11]
We are We are the youth of the nation[00:02:16]
We are We are the youth of the nation[00:02:21]
We are We are the youth of the nation[00:02:26]
Who's to blame for the lives that tragedies claim[00:02:50]
No matter what you say[00:02:52]
It don't take away the pain[00:02:53]
That I feel inside I'm tired of all the lies[00:02:55]
Don't nobody know why[00:02:57]
It's the blind leading the blind[00:02:58]
I guess that's the way the story goes[00:03:00]
Will it ever make sense[00:03:01]
Somebody's got to know[00:03:03]
There's got to be more to life than this[00:03:05]
There's got to be more to everything[00:03:06]
I thought exists[00:03:08]
We are We are the youth of the nation[00:03:10]
We are We are the youth of the nation[00:03:15]
We are We are[00:03:19]
We are We are the youth of the nation[00:03:21]
We are We are[00:03:25]
We are We are the youth of the nation[00:03:26]
We are We are[00:03:30]
We are We are the youth of the nation[00:03:31]
We are We are[00:03:34]
We are We are the youth of the nation[00:03:35]
We are We are[00:03:39]
We are We are the youth of the nation[00:03:41]
We are We are[00:03:45]
We are We are the youth of the nation[00:03:46]
We are the youth of the nation[00:03:51]
We are the youth of the nation[00:03:55]
We are the youth of the nation[00:04:00]
We are[00:04:05]
