Last day of the rest of my life

I wish I would have known cause I'd have kissed my momma goodbye.

I didn't tell her that I loved her or how much cared or thank my

Pops for all the talks and all the wisdom he shared.

Unaware I just did what I always do.

Everyday the same routine before I skate off to school

But who knew that this day wasn't like the rest

Instead of takin the test I took two to the chest.

Call me blind but I didn't see it comin and

Everybody was runnin but I couldn't

Hear nothin except gun blast it happened so fast

I didn't really know this kid though I sat by him in class.

Maybe this kid was reachin' 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 because

CHORUS

We are We are (We are) the youth of the nation (repeat) x4

Little Suzie she was only twelve

She was given the world with every chance to excel

Hang with the boys and hear the stories they tell

She might act kinda proud but no respect for herself

She finds love in all the wrong places

The same situations but just different faces.

Changed up her pace since her daddy left her

Too bad he never told her she deserved much better.

Johnny boy always played the fool

He broke all the rules so you would think he was cool.

He was never really one of the guys

No matter how hard he tried

Often thought of suicide

It's kinda hard when you ain't got no friends

He put his life to an end they might remember him then.

You cross a line and there is no turnin back

He told the world how he felt with the sound of a gat.

CHORUS x4

Who's to blame for the life that tragedies claim?

No matter what you say it won't take away the pain

That I feel inside I'm tired of all the lies

Don't nobody know why

It's the blind leadin' the blind.

Guess that's the way that the story goes

Will it ever make sense somebody's gotta know

There's gotta be more to life than this

There's got to be more to everything

I thought exists

We are We are the youth of the nation (x2)

We are We are (We are We are) the youth of the nation (x6)

We are the youth of the nation (x3)

The youth of the nation (x3)
