[00:41.93]Last day of the rest of my life
[00:44.07]I wish I would’ve known
[00:44.96]Cause I didn’t kiss my mama goodbye
[00:46.65]I didn’t tell her that I loved her and how much I care
[00:49.33]Or thank my pops for all the talks
[00:50.65]And all the wisdom he shared
[00:51.94]Unaware, I just did what I always do
[00:54.30]Everyday, the same routine
[00:55.86]Before I skate off to school
[00:57.07]But who knew that this day wasn’t like the rest
[00:59.91]Instead of taking a test
[01:01.08]I took two to the chest
[01:02.65]Call me blind, but I didn’t see it coming
[01:05.01]Everybody was running
[01:06.24]But I couldn’t hear nothing
[01:07.42]Except gun blasts, it happened so fast
[01:10.17]I don’t really know this kid
[01:11.29]Even though I sit by him in class
[01:12.89]Maybe this kid was reaching out for love
[01:14.99]Or maybe for a moment
[01:16.72]He forgot who he was
[01:18.03]Or maybe this kid just wanted to be hugged
[01:20.58]Whatever it was
[01:21.86]I know it’s because
[01:23.54]We are, We are, the youth of the nation
[01:44.50]Little Suzy, she was only twelve
[01:46.59]She was given the world
[01:47.72]With every chance to excel
[01:49.38]Hang with the boys and hear the stories they tell
[01:51.55]She might act kind of proud
[01:52.92]But no respect for herself
[01:54.51]She finds love in all the wrong places
[01:57.02]The same situations
[01:58.19]Just different faces
[01:59.87]Changed up her pace since her daddy left her
[02:02.05]Too bad he never told her
[02:03.24]She deserved much better
[02:04.81]Johnny boy always played the fool
[02:07.25]He broke all the rules
[02:08.60]So you would think he was cool
[02:10.28]He was never really one of the guys
[02:12.46]No matter how hard he tried
[02:13.88]Often thought of suicide
[02:15.34]It’s kind of hard when you ain’t got no friends
[02:17.69]He put his life to an end
[02:18.82]They might remember him then
[02:20.65]You cross the line and there’s no turning back
[02:22.76]Told the world how he felt
[02:24.51]With the sound of a gat
[03:07.65]Who’s to blame for the lives that tragedies claim
[03:10.05]No matter what you say
[03:11.13]It don’t take away the pain
[03:12.48]That I feel inside, I’m tired of all the lies
[03:14.94]Don’t nobody know why
[03:16.19]It’s the blind leading the blind
[03:17.92]I guess that’s the way the story goes
[03:20.04]Will it ever make sense
[03:21.48]Somebody’s got to know
[03:23.15]There’s got to be more to life than this
[03:25.53]There’s got to be more to everything
[03:27.03]I thought exists
