Joel Turner and The Modern Day Poets - These Kids lyrics

These kids trapped in a struggle and Don't know where they're heading, no A head full of trouble is all that they're getting And nobody knows the suffering they go through And you wouldn't believe 'em if they told you These kids trapped in a struggle and Don't know where they're heading, no A head full of trouble is all they're getting And nobody knows the suffering they go through And you wouldn't believe 'em if they told you So many songs, so many times The world had to hear so many rhymes About how life is for strugglers Minority groups, kids with single mothers Young homies turn hustlers, stealing for money It's kinda funny how the crime rate is so high In suburbs where family ties are low, 'n suicides on the rise Oh why, so many die coz in their eyes The mistake they made, cant be erased the only way out is to take their life And if they dont do it sudden then they'll do it slowly Polluting themselves with d**, because they on this world lonely So we as a nation just cla** 'em as a waste of space And if they don't help the economy then strip 'em naked Put 'em on the streets 'n make sure the police hate 'em And feed the public phony information on the evening news Kids may bomb police stations, to get at the boys in blue This song goes out to the whole justice system Instead of listening to the kids with the problems They just tick them off more Until these kids in prison or dead before they twenty four These kids trapped in a struggle and Don't know where they're heading, no A head full of trouble is all that they're getting And nobody knows the suffering they go through And you wouldn't believe 'em if they told you You probably heard the news about the 14 year old kid Who went to Woodridge to get a stick but got his neck slit What you'll expect in, the situation that he was facing With all of these expectations he just wanted to get wasted But the mistake he made was fatal What about my mate who put a rope around his neck But he choked to d**h instead coz the fall never broke his neck See both of them, were trapped in a struggle none of us could comprehend The younger was in need of weed, the other had problems with his head Now they're both dead, and the same thing happens time 'n time again Kids dying all the time 'n leave us asking why my friend And then there is those who run away from home Live on the streets 'n chrome Can't deal with tha pain of the world so they get stoned Sit in a zone, become known as the local drones With low vocal tones, they communicate with hopeless groans And nobody knows they came from broken homes Plus to us they're just emotionless clones And the pain plagues their brains they can't maintain healthy lives Change is all but easy, a life of crime is all but nice Plus life isnt worth living unless ya given the chance to fight Drugs might not be the answer, but who knows wrong from right When ya parents drinks 2 whole bottles Of wine, 'n puts the hose in the coke bottle, A lot of the time, kids dont know any different It's like they losing their minds, cant get a hold of their visions Think they're doing just fine, but they still in the struggle Yeah the kids of this time, in a whole lotta trouble If you in trouble, jump over that puddle Some where out there someone really loves you Loves you like you never been loved, yeah Loves you like you've never been loved These kids trapped in a struggle and Don't know where that they're heading, no A head full of trouble is all they're getting And nobody knows Nobody knows These kids trapped in a struggle and Don't know where they're heading, no A head full of trouble is all they're getting And nobody knows the suffering they go through And you wouldn't believe 'em if they told you These kids trapped in a struggle and Don't know where they're heading, no A head full of trouble is all they're getting And nobody knows the suffering they go through And you wouldn't believe 'em if they told you
