Tough Stuff

What a child goes through is hard to explain we've been through stress, anger, hurt, and
pain adults know what a child went through because you see there been through it too what
a child goes through is sometimes insane sometimes people offer us drugs like cocaine now
again on dark scary nights we hear sirens, gunshots, because of gang fights death takes
family and friends divorce takes them too oh if you only know what a child goes through
