Grown Statistic

If you are ever feeling down 
know that love can always be found
and there is help just look around
don't ever give up 
try not to live up
to the statistics 
peers are your own worst critics
put down the gun
there is no reason none
none at all 
so if you see a friend in need answer that call
I know people think its cool to hurt another person
when it is really themselves they are hurtin 
shadowed to this life by a curtain
who to blame the one raising the kids
or is it a whole other list 
lets not talk about grown ups 
that are grown sluts 
that will just f*** not know your name life and such
that is why when it is life you try to f*** it doesn't mean much
but you got to hold on in life its like a bronco don't get bucked.       -TA
