Last day of the rest of my life

I wish I wouldve known

Cause I would've kissed my mama goodbye



I didnt tell her that I loved her, how much I care

Or thank my pops for all the talks

And all the wisdom he shared



Unaware, I just did what I always do

Everyday, the same routine

Before I skate off to school



But who knew that this day wasnt like the rest

Instead of taking a test

I took two to the chest



Call me blind, but I didnt see it coming

Everybody was running

But I couldnt hear nothing



Except gun blasts, it happened so fast

I dont really know this kid

Though I sat by him in class



Maybe this kid was reaching out for love

Or maybe for a moment

He forgot who he was

Or maybe this kid just wanted to be hugged

Whatever it was

I know its because

We are, We are, (We are) the youth of the nation

We are, We are, (We are) the youth of the nation

We are, We are, (We are) the youth of the nation



Little Suzy, she was only twelve

She was given the world

With every chance to excel

She might act kind of proud

But no respect for herself



She finds love in all the wrong places

The same situations

Just different faces



Changed up her pace since her daddy left her

Too bad he never told her

She deserved much better



Johnny boy always played the fool

He broke all the rules

So you would think he was cool



He was never really one of the guys

No matter how hard he tried

Often thought of suicide



Its kind of hard when you aint got no friends

He put his life to an end

They might re
