Second Chance

We do what we believe to be right Even when their is no need to fight Endless taunting make us hard Why do we even start Times like these only getting dark Living life seems much harder Violent tempers rage through everyday We push them all far away We only want to pay our bill Make sure our family eats every meal We steal like we have no choice They say we do but hear no voice Is this how we want to live life? Living behind the barrel or bloody knife? But now we found our second chance Our only chance to a future again We all have our destined day For our children to run, laugh, and play There flowers bloom now again To flourish in our only second chance...
