The Kids (feat. Janelle Monáe)

Drug boy said it's show time

Streets don't give a damn

They filled with such pollution

The kids don't stand a chanceWe're trapped inside the matrix

Forced to play our hand

We're filled with so much hatred

The kids don't stand a chanceI said the kids don't, the kids don't stand

The kids don't stand a chance

I said the kids don't, the kids don't stand

The kids don't stand a chanceWell, since I was planted at birth

I abandoned my own planet and I landed on earth

As a kid I never understood what I observed

Some of it was strange but most of it disturbed meAlways in detention for the lack of my attention

You could call it deficit, really I just didn't listen

And I was always missin'

The teachers like, where is Bobby Simons?

But tryna get a record deal is all I can rememberIt's funny 'cause lookin' back on the past that I had

All my days, in the streets tryna prove that I was bad

I still elevated to the level that I'm at

Still elevated to the level that I'm atWe're trapped inside the matrix

Forced to play our hand

We're fill with so much hatred

The kids don't stand a chanceI said the kids don't, the kids don't stand

The kids don't stand a chance

I said the kids don't, the kids don't stand

The kids don't stand a chanceSometimes it's hard to grow

While livin' in fear of the unknown

How can he ever give love

When no love is in his heart?A child can barely sleep at night

too worried 'bout tomorrow

And what it beholds

He drowns himself

Deep down in his sorrowWill you run or will you share your light?

Tell a story or live in strife

See it when we're given hope

That we know that we can growWe're trapped inside the matrix

Forced to play our hand

We're fill with so much hatred

The kids don't stand a chanceI said the kids don't, the kids don't stand

The kids don't stand a chance

I said the kids don't, the kids don't stand

The kids don't stand a chance
