Little angels with innocent eyes are being used for pleasures
Everyone knows it and everyone sees but no one's taking measures
And so it keeps going on throughout these endless years

He's only a boy, 9 years old, and he doesn't understand this hatred
As soldiers storm and raid his home, he sees his parents hit the pavement
We watch it on screen, it's no big deal, we're worried bout our next payment

So watcha gonna do when it ain't you that's watching
So watcha gonna do when you're on the other side,
And no one cares if you'll live tonight?
So watcha gonna do when it's time to fight?
You can't run forever and there's no place to hide
So watcha gonna do when they take your life?
It gon' be your turn to blame those on the other side
As they watch you die

One broken life don't make a pretty sight, but somehow it's never over
She can numb the pain but the scars they remain, yet they all think they know her
You believe their words, misunderstand her hurt, judgment is all you show her

The final road, for some of us, is where we're already standing
I've made mistakes but I realize, there's no point in pretending
Don't say you know how it feels - it's more than understanding
