Give Me the Will

Childhood obesity is a disease Where is the cure? Is it in you Or will you just ignore it and let the nation face its doom Big, Big Big Unhealthy, strive for success Starting with a healthy self Don’t be afraid to put the junk back on the shelf Where is the will? Where is the way? Will I be fat if I eat one doughnut today? Mom , Dad what do you say? Give me some cream, and I’ll wont fade away You lost motivation, I’ve gained a little weight If you continue to feed me like this I wont be in a good state Instill the will, Instill the Way so that I may start off with a healthy slate.
