These ideas are nightmares to white parents Whose worst fear is a child with dyed hair and who likes earrings Like whatever they say has no bearing, it’s so scary in a house that allows no swearing To see him walking around with his headphones blaring Alone in his own zone, cold and he don’t care He’s a problem child And what bothers him all comes out, when he talks about His fuckin’ dad walkin’ out Cause he just hates him so bad that he blocks him out If he ever saw him again he’d probably knock him out His thoughts are whacked, he’s mad so he’s talkin’ back Talkin’ black, brainwashed from rock and rap He sags his pants, do-rags and a stocking cap His step-father hit him, so he socked him back, and broke his nose His house is a broken home, there’s no control, he just let’s his emotions go... [Chorus] {C’mon}, sing with me, {sing}, sing for the years {Sing it}, sing for the laughter, sing for the tears, {c’mon) Sing it with me, just for today, maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away...
