about kids growing up forced to choose what other want them to
Innocent

Decisions are made for you,
you follow what your told
to say and do
not knowing what is true.

It's not you're fault you're
too young to understand
you never get to see the good
overflowing in the other hand.

You are getting older
coming into your own
you worship the ones perched
up on their throne

You never asked to be subjected
to forced choices
as you get older you will
be able to use your own voices.

Morals, integrity and values
should be an example to follow
that's impossible and won't happen
as long as those around you are hollow.
