These Kids Lyrics - Singles - Joel Turner

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 drugs, because they on this world lonely 

So we as a nation just class '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 death 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
