What Can You Tell Your Children About Hope? - Justin Carter

Tears streaming down, her heart is broken Because her life is hurting, so am I He wears a frown, his dreams are choking And because he stands alone, his dreams will die So, humbly I come to you and say As I sound aloud the warfare of today Hear me, I pray CHORUS What about the children To ignore is so easy So many innocent children would choose the wrong way So what about the children Remember when we were children And if not for those who loved us and who cared enough to show Us Where would we be today Sir, where is your son Where lies his refuge And if he can't come to you, then where can he run Such a foolish girl, yet still, she's your daughter And if you will just reminisce your days of young You see, it's not where you've been, nor what you've done Because I know a friend who specializes in great outcomes See His love overcomes CHORUS (2 times) Where would we be today Where would we be today Where would we be today What about the the children

Friends What about your friends? What about? Friends What about your friends? What about, what about? Every now and then I get a little crazy That's not the way it's supposed to be Sometimes my vision is a little hazy I can't tell who I should trust Or just who I let trust me, yeah People try to say I act a little funny But that's just a figure of speech to me They tell me I changed because I got money But if you were there before Then you're still down with me What about your friends? Will they stand their ground? Will they let you down? hey yay What about your friends? Are they gonna be low down? Will they ever be around? Or will they turn their backs on you? Well is it me or can it be I'm a little too friendly So to speak hypothetically say I supply creativity To what others must take as A form of self-hate Only to make an enemy Which results in unfortunate destiny They dog me out then be next to me Just 'cause I am what some choose to envy Every now and then I get a little easy I let a lot of people depend on me I never thought they would ever deceive me Don't you know when times got rough I was standing on my own? I'll never let another get that close to me You see I've grown a lot smarter now Sometimes you have to choose And then you'll see If your friend is true they'll be there With you through the thick and thin What about your friends? Will they stand their ground? Will they let you down? hey yay Woah What about your friends? Are they gonna be low down? Will they ever be around? Or will they turn their backs on you? Yo, this is me, well is it me Or can it be I'm a little too friendly So to speak hypothetically say I supply creativity To what others must take As a form of self-hate Only to make an enemy Which results in unfortunate destiny They dog me out then be next to me Just 'cause I am what some choose to envy What about your friends? Will they stand their ground? Will they let you down? hey yay Woah What about your friends? Are they gonna be low down? Will they ever be around? Or will they turn their backs on you? I act a little funny I wouldn't change not for no money I'll be a friend as long as you're a friend to me, yeah, yeah Even though I might seem easy It don't give you no cause to deceive me It's not the way that I want my friends to ever be What about your friends? Will they stand their ground? Will they let you down? hey yay Woah What about your friends? Are they gonna be low down? Will they ever be around? What about your friends? Will they stand their ground? Will they let you down? hey yay Woah
