Some 15 year old kid sits on his porch,
just half-past noon
triying to figure out just what he’s doing
Some 14 year old kid sits on his porch,
just half-past noon
triying to figure out just what he’s doing
Why he had to grow up so soon
with all the gangs, all the guns
whatcha gonna learn in school
There’s got to be some way out of here,
he says: “Man, this life is cruel”
