• One of the Children

You fall through the cracks your teachers don’t care.
You get harassed and the cops just stare.
So you find strength in numbers and the neighbors say,
“Make these bad kids go away.”
You don’t have money so you can’t fit in,
‘Stead you dress in defense of your own convictions.
You get a job and try to make something of yourself,
You gotta grow up now that you look like an adult.
Well, I know the signs of flagrant neglect
And if I’m right I do suspect,
That you sojourn on the streets,
Straying from the school yard now barren with grief.
With your comrades you go right ahead,
Drugs, sex, theft, drugs, sex, theft, wild child
You have learned to jump the gun
And take control from everyone.
With your violent eyes, in your brave disguise,
You run and I wonder if you even know why.
You're still playing games of hide and weep.
Waiting to grow up in your sleep.
You are one of the children, one of the children,
One of the many children that I see every where about me.
Have you been broken yet are you mentally ill.
Will you descend to darker places still?
And perpetuate your pain where ever you go
Till you wake up in a cell with nothing but hope.
Don’t let Dante’s Hell inside; let your anger keep you alive.
Don’t you realize you’re just a kid,
It’s nothing you did. It’s nothing you did...
