Wake Up
*

This song is not in a battle


Lyrics:

Wake up. You've got several fields to plow.
You need to smell the roses now,
before you die.
Look around; Innocense is far too young.
What the hell have we become?
Shame on us.

What will our kids play with?
We have gone too far.
Give them back their childhood,
and they will find their freedom.

She wakes up. Put's the make-up on her face.
Spends some time in cyberspace
with all her friends.
Then on she goes. Off to school, it's time to go.
It's frightening how fast they grow
nowadays.

What will our kids play with?
We have gone too far.
Give them back their childhood,
and they will find their freedom.

Honestly; I started drinking at an early age.
But kids who grow up nowadays
are worse than I.
How can this be? Well TV shows 'em what to do.
And the only music they're listening to
is "party songs".

What will our kids play with?
We have gone too far.
Give them back their childhood,
and they will find their freedom.

A heart felt song with meaningful lyrics.
It's interesting how we see things change as each generation passes. We are so greatly influenced by our forefathers. It's so important during the first 8 years of a child's life to give them a strong foundation to build on, Love and discipline to help them build their lives, after that its up to them. Once they find their independence, they will want to find their own way.
