Youth Of The Nation (Live At Letterman 2K2) Lyrics


Last day of the rest of my life
I wish I would've known
'Cause I would've kissed my mama goodbyeI didn't tell her that I loved her and how much I care
Or thank my pops for all the talks
And all the wisdom he sharedUnaware, I just did what I always do
Everyday, the same routine
Before I skate off to schoolBut who knew that this day wasn't like the rest
Instead of taking a test
I took two to the chestCall me blind, but I didn't see it coming
Everybody was running
But I couldn't hear nothingExcept gun blasts, it happened so fast
I didn't really know this kid
He wasn't part of the classMaybe this kid was reaching out for love
Or maybe for a moment
He forgot who he was
Or maybe this kid just wanted to be hugged
Whatever it was
I know it's becauseWe are, We are, the youth of the nationLittle Suzy, she was only twelve

She was given the world
With every chance to excelHang with the boys and hear the stories they tell
She might act kind of proud
But no respect for herselfShe finds love in all the wrong places
The same situations
Just different facesChanged up her pace since her daddy left her
Too bad he never told her
She deserved much betterJohnny boy always played the fool
He broke all the rules
So you would think he was coolHe was never really one of the guys
No matter how hard he tried
Often thought of suicideIt's kind of hard when you ain't got no friends
He put his life to an end
They might remember him thenYou cross the line and there's no turning back
Told the world how he felt
With the sound of a gatWe are, We are, the youth of the nationWho's to blame for the lives that tragedies claim
No matter what you say
It don't take away the painThat I feel inside, I'm tired of all the lies
Don't nobody know why
It's the blind leading the blindI guess that's the way the story goes
Will it ever make sense
Somebody's got to knowThere's got to be more to life than this
There's got to be more to everything
I thought existsWe are, We are, the youth of the nation
