We grow up in the world not knowing what to expect, and not knowing what's in store.
Starting out when we're born, we don't know what to expect.
Not knowing how lives are torn, and how these things will effect.
We grow with each bond that's formed, and only wanting respect.
Never needing to mourn, we only need to reflect.

Loved ones are lost everyday, and they just tell us to pray.
Required to heed what they say, cuz' only they know the way.
Tell sinners how they will pay, when they're the ones who're astray.
Who are they to relay? They sit and watch faith decay.

We're forced to live life in school.
Punished for breaking a rule.
It's just the government's tool for keeping populations cooled.

Afraid of tempers flared, Government and God are paired.
Innocent lives aren't spared; acting as if they cared.

We're all in search of joy; hating to be employed.
Conformity we avoid;
Individuality destroyed!
