livin' in a world

livin' in a world Lyrics

Children are called the future of an adult world
They are born with spirits so innocent
'till we teach them how to hate
Add to the world's confusion
We teach our kids rules
That we don't adhere to ourselves
Right or wrong
What example can they take
The people they learn from
Forge the ideas we become
Chorus:
Livin' in a world they didn't make
Livin' in a world that's filled with hate
Livin' in a world where grown-ups break the rules
Livin' in a world they didn't make
Paying for a lot of adult mistakes
How much of this madness can they take
Our children
Children grow to become our young adults
Problems of the world
They must learn how to confront
Doing drugs and joining gangs to rebel
Colors show they belong
To the social override
'cause they're living in a space
They feel out of place
Livin' in a world they didn't make
Livin' in a world that's filled with hate
Livin' in a world where all the grown-ups break the rules
Livin' in a world we didn't make
Paying for a lot of adult mistakes
How much of this madness can we take
As children
